And this…

We need a smooth route runner.
 

Damn Mingo !?!... 

Nah, I'm not giving up on him yet. I remember my patience for Derrick Brown when everyone was ready to move on. And from everything I've seen/heard about him... Mingo's work ethic should keep him far from complacent. 

That chart is wild though. Suprised to see Brian Thomas Jr at that spot. Gotta do more research on Franklin. 

And Leggette is a different breed. We need that redzone threat.

Oh lord, how many times did I hear that when I expressed concerns about Bryce Young's diminutive size and weak arm about this time last year? LOLOLOL

Plenty of NFL types expressed those same concerns. Plenty of them. Hell, Parcells said that "he better walk on water."  Plenty of people outside of the Huddle said that they would've picked Stroud. So, your apples to oranges comparison is really what's funny. Bryce wouldn't even have been picked by a lot of people, much less first overall or even at all.

And Legette is considered a 3rd round pick by many of the "experts". The Mingo comp really isn't crazy off.

Reminds of last year draft where folks ate up what was said by the “analysts”.  XL big issue is route running, he has everything else going for him.  Route running is everything in the NFL.  I’m down with XL but definitely not at 33.  No way.

Yup. BR scouting report is unkind. 

Many of Legette's pain points come down to refinement. He is not skilled at battling at the line of scrimmage, nor is he a developed route-runner who can mix up his approach to keep defensive backs guessing. He plays with a fairly straightforward approach.

Additionally, Legette can struggle to work back to the ball and make himself friendly to the quarterback. That shows up most on timing routes or when Legette is running across the field and needs to attack the ball so defensive backs don't undercut the route.

Legette is an intriguing prospect with size, adequate speed and ball skills. The concern is that Legette is not a dynamic mover, and he is still a work in progress when it comes to the finer parts of the position. Legette would be best in a play-action heavy system that enables his vertical ability and ball skills.


GRADE: 7.1 (High-Level Backup/Potential Starter — 3rd Round)

OVERALL RANK: 67

POSITION RANK: WR13

PRO COMPARISON: Kenny Britt

    • …is Brycen Tremayne with 108 yards. Not sure what that tells us but I imagine it’s some sort of gumbo consisting of the following: - Bryce can’t push the ball downfield  - contrary to what many were saying this offseason, the wr still needs a lot of work.  - we need Coker back badly.  - Brycen is pretty good! Congrats to that young man! Curious to hear other’s read on it. Was a pretty surprised to see he had more yards than anyone other than Tet and thought that was symptomatic of our issues on offense. 
    • I don’t think many fans would have guessed the Chiefs and Ravens would be where they are right now. Same goes for some surprise packages like the Colts, I’m not sure many would have put money on them being top of their division after five weeks. It’ll be interesting to see if this continues!   Not necessarily. The Chargers have lost both starting OL and their 1st and 2nd choice RBs. They fell apart against Washington. The Broncos have just beat the Eagles, so they’d be my favourite in that division, but they are still only one win ahead of the Chiefs. All the Chiefs need is a couple of results to go their way and they’ll be right in the fight for the AFC East. I think that division is going to be very close and probably not a 12 or 13 win division like predicted. Unless of course the Broncos kick on.
