Drops are going to happen. Drop rate is important, but you should look at it like fielding %.
You'd rather have a SS that can get to an extra 25 balls a year but commits eight more errors than a sure handed statue.
Similarly, a WR who gets open all the time but drops a fairly high amount of passes is still more valuable than a WR who catches everything thrown to him, but can't get open.
