I do remember a few he dropped in games. That's cdrop's point. But I think it's a case of remember like three drops versus 30 catches and giving more credence to the drops than the catches.
I'd be curious to know how many catches he had per targets. Without knowing that the whole argument is moot beyond knowing that the Bears weren't fazed by his drops.

REMEMBER THAT PHRASE AGGIELAW - KILLING IT IN "PRACTICE". LOOK HE IS A GREAT BACK AND HE IS GOING TO BE AWESOME WHEN HE GET HIS TURN THIS YEAR. I HOPE HE DOES IMPROVE IN PASS CATCHING BECAUSE THAT WILL MAKE HIM EVEN MORE VALUABLE. HE'S SPECIAL AND HE CAN ADJUST TO ANY SITUATION OR TASK. SO, IF THEY WANT HIM TO BE A PASS CATCHER OUT OF THE BACKFIELD HE WILL ADAPT AND ACHIEVE IT. I WAS JUST STATING WHAT I OBSERVED WHEN HE PLAYED FOR A&T. Dude you are clueless when it comes to The Kid. You must have been watching the A&T from Drum line

The Bears have him on twitter in practice catching four punts in a row while holding all four balls at the same DAMN time!.

Man, if catching is his weakness, then you won't have to worry about that very long. Dude has three attributes that will automatically make him successful in the NFL: 1. He is a FREAK of nature, he's athletic as all get out; 2. He is a student of the game and 3. He has the work ethic to be successful. Put those three together and that will equal success. So, sure he may drop a pass here or there but, that won't determine where he's headed. Dude is a star in the making...watch!!!

O6, that was 4 attributes.
In my eyes he dropped a few he should have caught.
Tarik is bad and I know this. I have praised him since his freshman year and wondered why it took them soooo long to start him that year.
He's a great athlete but not perfect. All great athletes have a slight flaw and receiving is his in my eyes.
As great as Lebron is I cringe every time he tries to dribble and penetrate. Hell he is a below average dribbler. The baddest but not perfect.

"In my eyes he dropped a few he should have caught" True we all have that happens at any level. But The Kids numbers on the receiving side of his game are far better then a number of RB's that were Drafted ahead of him. So yes In your eyes you may feel that way but The Bears saw something different completely . I'm going with The Bears on this one. We all have our own opinion, So it's all Gravy Baby

No one's a finished product.....particularly as a rookie in the NFL. Let's just see what happens over time. Other than the ALL CAPS, I really don't have a problem with what chocolate drop said. Keeping improving #28, day by day, week by week, month by month, season by season.....that's all anyone can ask for.

congratulations to aggies tarik cohen and deji olatoye for making the 53 man roster on their respective teams! unfortunately, tony mcrae was unable to lock down a spot on cincinatti's roster, not even the practice squad. but at least 2 aggies appear to have locked down permanent spots on their respective rosters...
