I don’t know enough about him but I’ve heard he kind of is a one year wonder. Is this true USC fans?

Not a UofSC fan, but the stats will show a one year wonder.  This article does a good job of summarizing his college career:

I think we’d be crazy to pass on this guy. As fun as it is to mock draft him in the 3rd round, I highly doubt he’s still there after round 2.

Yeah, he would be a no brainer in the 3rd IMO.  Great NFL tools.  Really seems to be trending up and still developing too.  I think he has a lot more room to grow.  I think another year of college likely would have him in the first round.  

and being a no good dirty Gamecock aside….I like his story.   Rough life.  Hard worker.  Easy to pull for.   And having dudes easy to pull for as people is part of the fun.

When I in Boston the females used to send me a drink to come say hello, for the accent. Regularly.

When I lived north of Seattle they thought I was stupid because of it.

In my experience, coming up anyway, people used to think I was stupid because of it everywhere---and don't get me started about making life choices that were nonconformist---but I quickly disabused them of that notion based upon my intellect. Now, some just mistake me for arrogant, but even that's not true. But it is what it is. The ladies and even some guys like my deep voice and hint of a southern drawl.

I used to work in a call center. When I answered the phone one time, a guy said "Whoa, who am I talking to, God?" LOL

I have never questioned the overall intelligence of any general Seattle resident. Beautiful area but one of the largest collections of some of the dumbest in the dark head buried in the sand numbskulls I have have ever seen or encountered.

So don’t draft him with one of our 2nds but if he is there in round 3 grab him?

Same with me when I was in Oregon.  Even my relatives who had kids my age treated me as if I was ingnant.  Those same kids dropped out of high school later and got jobs on crab boats.  I guess they peaked early.

One year wonder that never got speration.  Imagine mingo light with short arms and small hands.

He is a different beast than many all together. Had the privilege of making his acquaintance the past two seasons and regularly spending some time with him so I am probably biased but he has the best attitude of any young athlete I have ever watched, witnessed, worked with or alongside.

One of the most humble and generally decent humans you will meet. No matter how busy he was the guy always had time to talk to a child and help/offer words of encouragement. Adversity built that guy into something special. He is no joke and will prove any doubters very wrong at the next level. I was so blown away by who he is as a human being and a work ethic like I have never seen before and I've been around a ton of quite accomplished athletes the past 20 years. There is something special about this young man, it shines through when you talk to him for just 30 seconds. A good soul and motivated heart is an understatement when describing him.

      Veteran CB trying out for Panthers

      I like Jaycee a lot and appreciate his leadership but to say he's above Ramsey right now is based on hopium let's be realistic. He's got a great deal to prove this season. I’m hoping to see that he firmly establishes himself amongst his peers.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      It’s amazing how simple it is. When you are winning 2-7 games for 7 straight years, you’d think people would understand that just drafting some starters isn’t poo unless they are above average NFL starters. Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase started their rookie years like Legette did so we got an elite WR in the 2024 draft. Luke was a rookie starter just like Wallace. Damn we basically got a Kuechly and Jefferson last year. Bravo Dan Morgan!!!

      I didn’t even say they would be starters. I don’t think Legette will be and Coker was not drafted. Coker chose to sign with us because our WR room gave him a chance to start even though we drafted a guy in the 1st. That should tell you something when Coker chose to come to Carolina even after we took Legette. We drafted and signed guys to potentially replace Sanders, who isn’t a starter yet over Tremble) and Wallace. Go look at our other drafts since Rhule. We had tons of rookie contribution from all of our recent classes. Why, because our overall talent sucked and we needed bodies. Go look at PFR. Here’s some of our players who “started” for a year: TMJ, Mingo, BC, Ian Thomas, Jermaine Carter, Dennis Daley, YGM and Roy. That’s what Legette and Wallace are right now although unless TMac bombs, Legette has kind of already lost his spot. We’ve had shitty drafts since 2018 and every single one has contributed at least two guys who’ve started so 2024 is tied for last right now and we just had a draft where we took 3 more players who play the same position as 3 of our top 4 picks in 2024 but somehow I’m saying that the 2024 draft class is good? Nope, the 2024 draft class was bad and our team is still in the low enough talent quadrant that lots of rookie contribute in our holes until we replace them. Been the same story since 2018 and accelerated as the old solid vets retired/move on.
