Garrett > Rico Wallace?

Am I crazy or does Garrett look like he has more long term potential than 2012 UDFA Rico Wallace? I mean, Wallace didn't make the team and never caught on anywhere else, but he's only 25, so we still don't know for sure.

Am I crazy?

For those that are not big Rico Wallace fans:

Dates: 03/16/12@JamesMadison
Height: 6-3
Weight: 208
40 Yrd Dash: 4.58
20 Yrd Dash: 2.57
10 Yrd Dash: 1.56
225 Lb. Bench Reps: 10
Vertical Jump: 37 1/2
Broad Jump: 09'11"
20 Yrd Shuttle: 4.12
3-Cone Drill: 7.08

08/28/12 - WR Rico Wallace was waived by the Panthers Monday.

I think the key here is that he was released on a Monday, giving him (essentially) a full 196 weeks of rest.  190+ weeks of rest for a 25 year old may be considered overkill for some people but I think it's the right amount of time.  Like this one time I took about 200 weeks off from throwing a baseball.  Picked that sumbitch up and my arm felt amazing again.  Accuracy was a bit off though.

Also according to this:

Cam and Rico (and others probably) spent a solid 72 hours working on their chemistry.  Factor this in with being well rested and the scale tips heavily towards Rico.  

Tipping the scale back in Keyariss' favor is his hands.  Very sure handed and according to this:

Catches up to 400 tennis balls a day.  Here are some simulations of former/current Panther wide outs doing the same drill:

Overall I give the slight edge to Keyariss Garett if it's a tennis ball, Rico Wallace if its a chew toy.  Wait what was the question

    • It appears that he sees things differently than the QB and OC, so Cam's advice is spot on. It isn't about number of targets, it's about quality of targets. Trust and being on the same page. BY doesn't know how to anticipate what XL is doing. And XL doesn't like where BY is placing passes. One on one film study would go a long way. More for BY than XL though. He has to adjust to XL. I really don't think XL can adjust on the fly. 
    • If the team shows improvement, then he shouldn't be in danger of losing his job - even if the record doesn't reflect. This was a very young team (with a lot of new vet starters) that overperformed last season. Somebody's doing something right. Consistency is key with so much youth. And we're potentially looking at new starters at ILB and FS. Those are positions that take time to fully understand the defense. ILB calls the front 7. Safety calls the back 4. Injuries at WR and IOL killed the offense last season. Depth needs to be upgraded. Same with Edge. I think they would have won more games if Pat Jones doesn't go down early. Be smart with the roster and draft. Trade players for assets when it's time to pay them more than they're worth - yes, that includes BY if he doesn't make a pretty big jump. That's one of the many reasons Tillis is as important as anyone to the future of this team.
    • He had heart surgery a while back he looks Fraile I hope he is okay
