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

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
