Yesterday, in my “PFF 2019 Grades: NFC West by Position” thread, AZ_Cardinals_Fan asked an outstanding question as to why Larry Fitzgerald would have a similar 2019 PFF grade to the 49ers’ Kendrick Bourne, when Fitz caught 75 passes for 804 yards and 4 TDs, while Bourne caught 30 passes for 358 yards and 5 TDs.
I promised AZ_Cardinals_Fan that I would do some digging to see what I could find and what I found is, imho, worthy of this new thread.
In a recent PFF article in which they ranked the most efficient WRs of 2019, they had Fitz rated #10 in the NFL in “catch rate percentage” at 72.
