Hi Eric,

This seems to be caused by the below software bug.

CSCtq86186 - Switch stack shows incorrect values for output drops on
show interfaces
http://tools.cisco.com/Support/BugToolKit/search/getBugDetails.do?method=fetchBugDetails&bugId=CSCtq86186

I've verified that this affects 15.0(1)SE3 and it'll be fixed in 15.0(2)SE.

You can use the 'show platform port-asic stats drop' command to check
hardware drop counters.

Best regards,
Andras
