You forgot Ben Dinucci and Garrett Gilbert. The latter of which couldn't beat out Allen or Heinicke with the Panthers. 

It looks like Dalton played 11 games and Dak played 5 last year. Maybe they came in for a series or two? Regardless he had a whole season plus 5 games with a top QB then 9/10 with a QB on Teddy’s level.

how many games did Greir and PJ start with DJ?

That seems relevant if one considers Allen and/or Bridgewater better than Prescott and/or Dalton, which I don't think anyone is arguing, so I'm lost on your angle here. The answer though is also 1 each, so it's seemingly a draw with respect to bottom of the QB depth chart for each team.

That seems relevant if you ignore the fact that Allen and Teddy both had better qb ratings than Dalton in 2020.

I swear some people will never let Moore be just a good WR because of this...

Guess what, Smitty also said that Corey Coleman was, "the next Steve Smith!" Where is Coleman now?

He also told Lafell, a 10 year vet, that he would never make it in the NFL.

Maybe Steve isn't the best evaluator of WR talent.

Moore played with Allen in 2019, when his was lower than Dalton 2020. We all also saw what Teddy did this year regardless of his QB rating, and had he actually hit DJ in stride a few times he short-armed him (or missed him being wide open) DJ's numbers sure would look better.

I'm still not following your argument here.

Hell, T McLaurin's stats are almost identical to DJs, except a year younger.

McLs QBs...

Haskins

Allen

Smith

Heinicke

Keenum

McCoy

This shows you how bad it was for Moore and he still produced. He had over 6 more yards per attempt than McL who has Alex Smith for several games which was way better than what Moore was working with. You find anyone else?

I give.

You guys are right.

Every other WR in the league was gifted yards by the perfect QB play of noted cannon arm qbs like Alex Smith. Conversely, if DJ had not had to literally drag a broken jugs machine down the field, he would be a cross between Steve Smith, Megatron and the Sacred Mother.

So you have no data/stats to backup your argument. That usually means one thing...

      I believe I just read somewhere that the Rams don't do Top 30 Visits. I mean, it makes sense from the standpoint of trying to keep information close to the vest.

      Emanuel McNeil Warren + Jacob Rodriguez

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      I'm not sure 19 is too high for Rodriguez anymore.  He looks to be moving up boards, but it could be smokescreens.

      Panthers WR Xavier Legette named potential trade candidate for 2026 offseason

      I see XL this way---great athlete.  Good person.  When we drafted him, we knew he was raw.  One year of WR in college (starting) and in HS, he was a QB, I believe. We knew we would need patience with him.  I think year 3 will be make or break.  He is older, and I think that people with his athletic ability have always been better than those with less---but those with less can become more successful.  Why is that?  in my view, it is mental. XL can learn the mechanics and nuances of playing WR if he becomes focused on it and works at it.  I had the opportunity to talk to Armanti Edwards one day after OTAs (great guy) and he discussed how overwhelming it was.  He seemed shocked.  At that time, I knew that Fox hated the pick (I heard him mock Armanti to another coach when he saw Edwards drop a punt from a jugs machine--then I saw Armanti look back at Fox as if to suggest that he was feeling the pressure to please the coach. We forget that these are kids in their early 20s.  At the time, Fox was a lame duck.  Remember when he had Clausen as the #3 QB and was forced to move him up the ladder?  I liked Fox, but I think the climate and culture was influenced by the politics.  Currently, I see another Wr from SC who is struggling, but he is ina  very nurturing, positive culture. Let's see what happens with XL.  I am frustrated too---but XL was a second round talent who was raw and we traded up to get him.  He had 500 yards as a rookie--lets call 2025 a sophomore slump and see if we can't get at least 50 yards per game out of him.  If not, cut bait.
