Why is Preston Williams so Inconsistent?

He has some serious issues with concentration, because his hands haven't gotten any better since the beginning of his rookie year. Barring a second half of the season surge, he's replaceable for me going forward.

He also slowed up on that deep ball attempt and I have no idea why. Does it often.

I think we need 2 receivers, including a slot. We need another legit starter who can potentially be a consistent WR1 go to target for Tua. I preference Parker as the complimentary guy.

Hope we draft a WR in round 1, and another in the 3rd-5th range. I'd be all over JuJu if he's made available.
 
In his defense, sometimes it's hard for a receiver to keep their concentration and "feel" for the game when so few plays come their way. He needs to be better but he's still young and raw.
 
He's the type of receiver who should be sprinkled in as a third or 4th option, not a focal point. A lot of non Jets teams in this league have 4 or 5 guys with the same upside. Its the ones who can complete the majority of routes that get the starters snaps.
 
Some guys just don't have great hands... look at Jakeem Grant on punt returns, all the speed in the world, and yet... each catch is an adventure. Some of them do get better, DVP certainly has... but he had to mature.
There used to be an old axiom... the third year improvement from WRs. It isn't spoken about as often anymore, but there is still some truth to this. Preston's 3rd year is next year, and that will be his year to shine... or be replaced. He is still growing.
 
Because he's really not that good.
I wouldn't be prepared to say that yet. I've seen him do things that are really impressive and definitely give hope he can be a solid NFL receiver. That said, he may be limited by his lack of pure speed but I think with other parts around the offense, he could give them a dimension that is valuable, particularly in the way he can use his size to shield defenders and high-point the ball. For any of this to matter though, he has to demonstrate that he can squeeze the easy catches in particular.

Can't agree with that. The kid has tremendous upside. There just aren't a whole lot of humans his size that can move the way he does.

His issues are addressable and to me its just a matter of work. If hes willing to put in the time he can be top target for Tua for years to come.

There aren't a lot of humans that can move the way he does, that's why they're on NFL receiving depth charts.

Anytime a Dolphin player shows some ability he's projected on here as an all pro. It's nothing new. Most players in the NFL bring something to the table.

His hands are great, in the sense he CAN catch anything. They're inconsistent. He drops easy passes. I also noticed the slowing down on deep passes, I thought it was just me...They could very well go with two receivers. The Albert Wilson presence might change the thought on slot receiver. I'm big on Ja'Marr Chase but do you want to pick a WR top 10? Maybe. Ju-Ju is interesting in that he's good and still so young.
 
Its also getting used to catching from a lefty. He had drop issues previously now throw in a completely different ball spin. Im sure he'll get it worked out
 
Dude can be a stud one week and then a dud the next.

So tired of him having games where he has Several Dropsy syndrome.
One of their top 4 picks will be a WR. He's a nice player, but they need better. Ditto the RB, although that doesn't necessarily need to be a 1st or 2nd round pick.
