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.

Thats awesome, but those being his main selling points reminds me of all the posts about Corral being the first to the field.  I woild take a flyer on him or coleman in the third but not with one of the seconds which is afraid is what we are going to do because no matter what the era or staff is, the panthers always seem obsessed with heavy physical receivers that make contested catches constantly in college (red flag)

I think there's a chance. I think he's a dawg. I know that McConkey is a dawg (big and little D), but McConkey is so much more polished. But Legette has the size and durability. Both are hard workers. Mitchell might be the spawn of them both.

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

I’d prefer to trade down to mid 2nd round with #33, acquire an extra day 2 pick, and use the mid 2nd on Legette. I just don’t think he’ll be there in the 3rd. 
 

There are a couple of other WRs I’d like to draft too, but that’s my ideal scenario for Legette.

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

Naw (in Legette voice)

I’d trade Mingo for a mid round pick if it meant we get Legette.

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

He showed flashes in 2022 and especially the bowl game but was overshadowed in the regular season by Juice Wells. He also credits his work with Deebo in the offseason as having a huge impact on his game. He may be a one year wonder by metrics but it was all due to hardwork and development and not so much of a fluke.

Leggette's breakout season wasn't really comparable to Mingo's best season.  Leggette was much more productive and better.  Leggette needs work as a route runner...but his hands are one of his strengths.  I mean, you can google Harrison Jr's hand size and wing span say the same thing about his arms and hands.   

Mingo's best season was middle of the road SEC play.  Leggette's was one of the very best in the SEC. 

Both are a bit raw coming in.  That's true.  But Leggette's ceiling is different IMO. 

and I say that as true Gamecock hater.  I actually like Gamecock WRs/DBs historically as NFL players.  They have a tough life in the SEC playing atSC.  They have often yielded decent returns.

You obviously understand his situation and can see through the basic "He is big and can't get separation" talk. He will succeed at teg next level and we will regret not taking him if we do I have a feeling.

Harrison has tape of his speed and getting seperation though.   I dont want any receiver who was known for how well they made contested catches in college.

Legette will be more AJ Brown than Mingo imo. He has plenty of speed on film.

      Where would the Panthers be if they sat Bryce Young last season?

      By CRA · Posted

      And I’m fine with that.   But, with an impatient owner….that carries high odds of just him employing a new HC in the not distant future.  The “we will see if the scheme that doesn’t fit our #1 overall pick QB works or not” approach seems like a rocky plan for all.  If I was Canales I would give it shot but demanded I need to be able to sign a legit backup QB in case what I was given just doesn’t work and can transition at the end of the year

      That's really unlikely to happen.  The reality is, they are building for what Canales wants to do.  That's what all coaches do.  And if Bryce can't do that, he's another peg that has to be replaced.

      There is nothing unpopular at all about your opinion. How everything played out on the field backs it up. Bryce starts the season with much fanfare, gives the atl game away, and showed anyone who watched that his arm talent was shockingly bad. bad look, so after a few weeks, the team cooks up a fake injury that nobody saw, presumably to decide what direction to go next. Enter Dalton for one game while Bryce is seen walking comfortably on the sideline, smiling and yucking it up like he’s a 5 year vet.  Dalton performs admirably given the circumstances (please no Dalton ve Bryce retort). The contrast between the two was so strong that it’s still debated today. If Dalton’s performance was similar to what Bryce had done up to that point, I truly believe they would have sat Bryce longer, but it wasn’t.  Dalton relied on vet savvy and a better arm. It’s debatable how many games that gets us. Meaningless to fans, but not to players with serious financial incentives on the line.  What it really was, was a ‘young man (see what I did?)’ playing a grown man’s game, who lacked basic fundamentals and essential physical talent, behind a line that was VERY ill suited for the scheme forced on them, WRs who looked completely confused and unmotivated, with a back stabbing coaching staff in give up mode, GM who I wouldn’t trust to organize my cooking utensil drawer and an owner who meets with coaches every week and tells them which plays he likes and which ones he doesn’t.  Bryce doesn’t get a mulligan, but I’m willing to give him a ‘my bad’ from the team. Last season stunk worse than Bigfoot’s di**. It literally can’t get ANY worse than the unwatchable sh** show that was last year.  I have to see a monumental change in his physical ability and overall confidence. I have to see that he found a laser arm, somewhere, in the offseason, or everything else is irrelevant.
