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

Let's try not to look at dated mocks. I know that it's easy to do, but looking at older mock drafts and dated projections isn't as helpful as looking at recent ones.

So let's not act like there aren't mocks out here with Legette going before round 3.

I said "he is considered a 3rd round pick by many of the experts". Evidently you read that I said "he is unanimously considered a 3rd round pick by everyone and drafting him with one of our 2nds would be a travesty".  I'm not sure why you seem so bothered by a variance of opinion.

He got a man crush on XL.  All good.

It would seem to be that if you're going to form an opinion, it should be based upon more than he's got a similar build or a similar RAS score than this guy or that guy. That really is nonsensical at the end of the day. And, for the record, I haven't seen one notable analyst (or any analyst really) comp Legette to Mingo.

I just presented supporting evidence for my opinion. You assuming it's the entire basis for my opinion is on you. You seem to rely too heavily on having analysts tell you what to think. It's okay to formulate your own opinions. The experts get it wrong a lot too.

Ha ha. What a lazy way to support your opinion. Without a RAS score or Combine measurables, you wouldn't know what to do. But, I know, you looked at that All-22 and said, "Hey, these two guys look exactly the same..." Gimme a break, LG! They're not the same.

I have no earthly clue why people want to keep drafting the same type of wr repeatedly and expect a different result on the field. 

How about drafting a dude with legitimate speed and separation with legitimate college production instead of projecting big lumbering dudes to be the next dk Metcalf??

This is why my favorite wr are Troy Franklin and Xavier Worthy

Troy Franklin for me IMO  he is a very similar player to Jamison Williams

I shared supporting evidence. You just parrot other people's opinions. We ain't the same.

    • Why do you say that. What leads you to think that we, as supporters, think his ceiling is 10-12. That's a ridiculous assumption on your part. The Seahawks won the SB with Darnold passing for 25 TD's, 14 Ints with a 99.1 rating for the season.  The Panthers with Young were at 23 TD's, 11 Ints and a 78.8 rating for the season. Not that far off. The problem with all the Young discourse around here is the assumption that the QB is the sole determining factor for a teams success. That just isn't true and it's certainly not how Morgan and Tilis are building the Panthers. 
    • Do we pay based on how many wins or how many games Bryce led us to wins? We've spent quite a bit on defense this year and hopefully they're much improved. If the Panthers do get to 10 wins, but Bryce has another year like last year where he showed up big in a couple, was present in a few, and forgettable in most, do we still pay him 50m per year?  I keep bringing it up because I think it's relevant, but Bryce was outplayed by a 6m per year backup last year. I don't see how it's possible to pay a top tier QB contract to someone who's putting up backup QB production. 
    • I understand tempering expectations, but there are some issues with his points. Walker was a 3 year starter, but Green Bay let him walk and no other team was quick to snatch him up. That says something. Freeling will compete to start. With Hunter, we rotate our linemen and even 5th round pick Cam Jackson played some meaningful snaps last year. Both Brown III and Wharton have underwhelmed since we picked them up. Hunter is a run plugger that we have needed. Hunter will play early, even if he isn't the "starter." Brazzell was described as one of Canales' favorite prospects in the draft and he has a speed element we have been missing. I think Canales is going to have plays drawn up with Brazzell on the field just out of pure excitement. It will be up to Brazzell to prove he can handle it, though. If he can, he will play. As far as our secondary picks, yeah they have to earn their stripes and Evero tends to lean on veterans. So they might take time, but if they can show they can play, they will see the field. Smith-Wade and Ransom did. Sam Hecht simply has to show he can handle the mental side of the NFL game. If he can, he is in a direct competition with Fortner, who's also relatively young, but also on his 3rd NFL team and doesn't have the power profile of Hecht.  I can appreciate that Gantt wants to pour cold water on what was perceived as an impactful draft, but facts are facts.
