He looked pretty good in training camp.  An undrafted rookie from North Dakota State.  Bobby Skinner was pretty high on him.

Some of those guys on the list have been studs most of the season.  Guys like Brock Bowers, Bucky Irving, Brian Thomas, and of late Xavier Worthy.

Brian Thomas has been better than Nabors and his body language is way better than Nabors.

What exactly do you mean by body language? I need a translation.

Do you watch the games? He sighs, shakes his head and just look's disinterested the majority of the time. Yet, he gets a penalty or 2 a game for the most simplest things he can't correct

Thomas has 73 receptions, 14.9 yards per reception and 9 TDs.  Other than total receptions he dominates Nabers in the other stats.

With a real passing game Nabers stats would look very different.  It's almost amazing he has almost 1000 yards.

Matt,

I am not singling you out, but rather this common claim.  Who does the TE who leads Nabers in yardage and receptions have throwing to him?

They have had several QBs but I think Minshew and O'Connell are a better pair than Jones and whoever you want to put next, be it Lock or Devito.  The Raiders while also terrible on offense have averaged 3 more points per game than the Giants.  That may not seem like much, but Bowers is averaging about 6 yards more per game than Nabers

Nabers ending up with 1,000 plus yards this year having missed a few games and having had by far the worst QB play in the league is solidly impressive. This guy has received a lot of hate this year, but that's not bad for a rookie his age given his circumstances.

Brock Brock has been amazing. Think the Chargers and Jets might have regrets passing on him? Stepped right in a lousy Raiders situation and has been incredibly productive..match up major headache. Great player.

No way for Chargers.  They valued another OT.  This year they can chase Colston Loveland or the Penn St kid for TE.
