Cant really say that because his numbers never really improved year 1-4. Thats not a trend.

Nope. My dream was AD Mitchell. Boom or bust prospect that has a higher ceiling and could do it all potentially with no real holes. 2nd choice was Ladd who has some concerns but has elite route running and quickness. What elite skills would you say Legette has?

Johnson definitely moved the needle but he may be gone after this season. I dont think day 1 of the draft moved it much because I dont think a gadget player that you scheme touches for moves the needle much as far as overall wr corps.

Youre exactly right on what to expect from him. Thats why I dont like the pick.

Only in his 5th year of college..

The only players I could think of are AD Mitchell (who we probably should have taken lol) or one of the centers I'd think.

XL doesnt have grear acceleration either. He didnt do any agility drills and his 10 yard split was 60th percentile. He is faster over long distances in a straight line though. I will give you that.

Hes most likely gone after this season.

Trade value wise we got screwed if you use the value chart.

They played themselves lol. It got leaked we were taking him at 33 and we thought it was 4d chess to make someone panic to grab him at 32 and isntead we used it to scare ourselves and move up. They literally only scared themselves lol

Raw measurables guy who didnt do any agility or quickness drills because it wouldnt be good. Hes a raw measurables guy running untouched in a straight line over a long distance.

I didnt like him as a prospect. He was my biggest fear that Morgan is fitterer. When the season starts I will cheer for him but until then I'm not going to magically act like i liked him as a prospect just because we drafted him. As a prospect I still feel exactly the same about him. As a player on the field for the Panthers I will hope always that he proves me wrong but for now this feels exactly like what Fitterer would have done the past few years.

He's not 6'3. He was listed 6'3 at SC. He was 6' at the combine.

RAS are almost always high when they dont do any agility drills which is the concern for him. His 10 yd split is average. i care a lot more about that than the 40 time for wr.

I dont compare him to Mingo besides measurables. Hes a little older and not as tall but I compare him more to Shenault as far as player type.

Hes on. 1 year deal. I dont want a receiver you have to manufacture touches for in the first round.

Its like the spiderman meme. Lets draft big receivers that didnt get open in college every year. Eventually one has to not be bad right?

Even Smith had him ranked as his wr #9 with much higher ranked true wr on the board still.

He is the literal definition of a Panthers draft pick the past few years. Old and "raw" gadget player.

I wanted him to run decent routes or get seperation.

Xl did literally nothing for 4 years. At least AD had boom or bust potential with a much higher ceiling. This is exactly who Fitterer would have drafted.

I feel great about that. Thats 2 more players we actually need that could fall to 33.

Not who I want but I think it will be Legette or the slot cb from Michigan.

My biggest problem with him is hes all speed. Hes slight of frame and isnt going to make contested catches and doesnt run great routes. Hes either screens or deep bombs. You run a 4.21 the first couple routes and then you slow down. When he slows down hes useless so you have to make sure to keep him fresh. I think hes awesome as a luxury pick, but we arent in the position to make a luxury pick.

Ive seen that chart a lot of places but i dont really think it tells us anything without seeing the percentages for round 2 at least, if not more rounds. I know the hardest posistion to hit in the 2nd round or later is edge rushers. Almost all the good ones are drafted in the first. 2nd round and later edge rushers dont have a good track record at all.
