That's nice, but w/ the Jets last year he dropped a million EASY catches on third downs no less when the season still had promise. Hope he's solved that this year. I'll chalk it up to rookie mistakes, but I want it to stop. So this was in game 2? Yes. It was. Game 3 too. Big 3rd down drop against the Pack and then again a HUGE 3rd down drop against the Bears. Both were EASY catches that hit him in the hands.

Looks like the new coaching staff watched all of last year's games and came to the same conclusion I did about Amaro (from this sunday's NY Post):
"Second-year tight end Jace Amaro has become one of the more interesting Jets to keep an eye on in training camp. Amaro missed this week with a back injury, costing him some time to impress the coaches. Even before he was injured, though, Amaro was hard to find this spring. Bowles uses two fields for practice – a first field for starters and guys he wants to work in and a second field for everyone else. Amaro was often on the second field. I don’t think that’s a good sign for him. I’m not suggesting the Jets will give up on Amaro in his second year, but it seems like he is going to have to earn playing time with the new coaching staff."

Haha. Althought that assumes Amaro will actually CATCH the ball. He's a drop machine. The latest in a long line of high round Jet stone handed TEs. Hope he turns it around in year 2, but last year I wasn't impressed. All time NCAA reception leader for a TE. Stone hands. Yup. STONE HANDS (at least he was last year). From ESPN (second highest drop percentage in entire NFL): Tight end Jace Amaro (No. 2, 49th) -- The new coaching staff won't try to make him something he's not. He'll be an H-Back, not a traditional, in-line tight end. Rex Ryan's least favorite former player has a lot to prove. With six drops in only 53 targets, he had the second-highest drop percentage in the league.
