Terrace Marshall Jr. is leading the NFL


Captain Morgan

Recommended Posts

one of the most impressive things is he's done behind what many say is one of the greatest wide receiver classes of all time this year...and with Darnold only playing a little more than a half in our 3 games.   Pitts, Chase, Waddle, Smith, and Bateman who are all pass catchers drafted in the first round this year.  

That's just the rookies.  He is leading all pass catchers in the NFL in the preseason.  Which is not the regular season, but impressive still.

And he didn't have Brady's offensive mind until his last year...

But Marshall is showing up along with Chuba...they look more like 2nd year players.

I'll agree about TMJ...

I believe TMJ is a potential WR1 that many teams slept on because of how the situation with his injury and the decisions made by LSU staff booted him down the totem pole. I think his decision to opt out the remainder of his junior season probably didn't help his cause either. That being said, Brady really knew his potential, or at least strongly suspected it. That, and a bit of  fortuitous information regarding the Saints (if not outright gamesmanship and possibly payback), made him too good of an option to pass on in the second. 

Samuel, though dynamic, had to learn how to be a receiver. He's a good football player, if not somewhat injury prone, but I believe his ceiling was always good and not great like TMJ's. 

Admittedly, I hope I'm not letting homerism cloud my objectivity, but, yes, I think that TMJ can be a legitimately top tier receiver in the league.

I would say - he's a better receiver than Samuel.. Samuel was a better playmaker overall..

but im are splitting hairs.. obviously its much better to have him on a rookie deal than having to pay Samuel and let either DJ or Robby walk.. now we were able to lock down Robby and hopefully DJ isnt too far behind

Well the only reason Samuel was used was because CMC went down. Now we have CMC and a better WR. Not knocking Samuel though he got big bucks to play for Rivera again.

    • At the moment? Absolutely not. Maybe if they drop the next three in a row and go into the deadline at 3-6 I can see an argument to be made to move Rico as he's on a 1yr deal. I'd rather keep Chuba's contract though and roll with ETN + JB next season. The team will have plenty of time to see how JB is looking going into the offseason a year-plus after his surgery to know whether or not they need to plan for another direction.
    • I forgot to mention my thoughts on the rushing grade! 😮 He ran his ass off both weeks. I can't remember the stat offhand but didn't he have something crazy like 120+ yards after contact vs. Dallas? Against Miami he had lanes as wide as the entirety of I-95 to run through which is why his rushing grade wasn't as high as this week's. He's ran like a man possessed and going to earn himself some money in the offseason.
    • I'm not sure how much I'm changing mid year, especially when we are seeing some success.    Most Pass Rushers are physically gifted. Scheme and personnel help, but you gotta have the Jimmys and Joes, especially at that position.    We will likely lose games when the other team can throw for 400 yards, and has multiple high level receivers, but I think at this point in the development of our franchise, we have to be ok with that. You can't address every single issue at once. Really looks like we have plugged some holes on offense, and definitely in run defense. In the next draft, if we hit on a CB, an ILB and a Pass rusher, we will be pretty dangerous.
