Beasley found ways to be efficient while being surrounded by a solid corps of wide receivers, with the highest completion percentage among any receiver in the NFL with more than ten targets. On third down, quarterback Tony Romo was tagged by him, especially in spread formations. Any of this can be traced back to Beasley's remarkably fast route running.
