Seems like it is a practice makes perfect thing.
Think you are right on this. Part of our problem is we keep recruiting guys that didn't play WR in high school so they honestly haven't had a lot of practice. When you convert a guy, you can project he will catch well, but how the frick can you really know such a thing til he does it?
Some of them just need more time to develop tbh. It can be tough when you are learning all the nuances at once to really concentrate on catching. Swope had dropsies early on (and I think it was a lot of the same reasons)

I would go with that, but it seems our converted WRs are doing much better.
Take for example Pope vs RSJ. Pope was projected to be a CB for many of the teams recruiting him. But on the field today he is our second most reliable receiver to Kennedy. Meanwhile RSJ, a star WR who was a big get at that position, can't be trusted to catch a cold.
Honestly I think the WR play is a clear case that it takes more than talent to play football, it also takes a will to win and do whatever to be a winner. That is why Speedy is my favorite Aggie right now even as a freshman, because he has shown both sides of that coin.
