Crunching the numbers: Big Ten wide receivers/tight ends

You're probably familiar with who led the Big Ten in catches last season (Aaron Burbridge) or who finished with the most receiving touchdowns (Leonte Carroo). But those numbers only scratch the surface of a receiver's ability.

What returning Big Ten players never dropped a ball, and who had the most drops? Who was the most serious threat downfield? And who was most likely to turn a short pass into a long gain? Those are the more interesting questions -- and those are ones we tried to answer.

Once again, just like last week, the statistics aren't perfect here.
