Earlier this week, The Ringer released an interesting list of the top “skill-set poster boys” in the NFL. In essence, they break down some of the top players by their tangible skills, not just by their stats or positions.
Two Buccaneers made The Ringer’s list, and both play the same position: wide receiver. Mike Evans was listed as the best contended pass-catcher in the NFL while DeSean Jackson was The Ringer’s best deep-ball tracker.
“Evans isn’t the type to consistently cut and fake his way into generating separation like (Pittsburgh’s Antonio) Brown does,” Danny Kelly wrote.
