2 – Brian Quick

Another high draft pick taken at number 33 overall in 2012, Brian Quick has still failed to reach 1000 total career receiving yards. 2015 has been his least productive outing yet, with a mere 8 receptions for just 79 total yards and no touchdowns. Quick’s supporters will undoubtedly point to the Gurley effect and the Rams emphasis on the running game – as well as inaccurate passing from Nick Foles whose completion rate of 56.4% was the second lowest in the league before being dropped. Unfortunately, the truth runs deeper. Brian Quick was drafted as the classic tall, athletic wide receiver with the physical attributes to make big chunks of yardage. In his career so far Quick has failed to consistently show the ability to get separation from defensive backs to bring in catches or make any significant yardage after the catch. 2015 has been no different.
