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

I think that's the other way around, you've been parroting other Huddlers' opinions for a long time, but you're right, we're not the same.

You've literally offered nothing but links to other people's opinions. I've offered my own. That offends you. I'm not sorry. That's what this place is for. You have a differing opinion on a prosect. Cool. I'm not offended.

Dynamic route runners are needed. Route runners that can create separation in 2.7 seconds. Route runners that can run EVERY route in the WR Route Tree. Route runners that DBs fear. Route runners with great footwork. Pick 33 needs to be a great route runner if WR is taken. 

My favorite pick would be Ladd McConkey, but other route runners can be taken later. 

Double dip - Ladd McConkey and Pearsall, or Ladd and whoever.

Bryce can't see anything, he needs route runners to get to their spots within 2.7 seconds so he can throw the ball to a spot and hope it doesn't get picked off by someone that's watched a bunch of tape. Legette would probably actually be worse than Mingo at getting open underneath. Very little separation even on his highlight reels

I have said plenty about Legette over several threads. You've offered nothing except that he reminds you of Mingo. That's it. 

Anyone can see that he's big, strong, explosive, tracks the ball with the best of them which, obviously has strong hands, has great hops, and because of the latter three he has an excellent catch radius. These are obvious to anyone who has watched his plays. Also obvious is the fact that true speed is reflected in his game speed, as he's run away from NFL-caliber DBs. As a matter of fact, anyone who has done their research knows that his damned-near 23MPH would've been faster than any receiver in the NFL last season. 

Now, honestly, I've heard that he's a better than average blocker, but I haven't watched that aspect of his game.

You know, If I wasn't dealing with you or the Huddle, I may have been offended by your decidedly provocative insinuation that I don't know how to form my own opinion, or that I haven't offered anything other than links---maybe in this thread, but of course limiting my content to only this thread seems kind of contrived---but I am dealing with the normal craziness of this place so I am more amused than offended. 

I am comfortable with differing opinions, and I appreciate the ones that are well researched, or at least well thought out.

Hmm I'd like to go back and watch what he had on Mingo last year as well....Haven't watched their tape back to back but the ras scores are nearly identical

 

You're not the same?  You're very much parroting things other people have posted in here.  You didn't come up with the Mingo/Legette comparison lol.  Seems like you both read evaluations of prospects and based on what is compelling to you, you formed an opinion.  That's a very normal thing to do...not sure why the petty self-righteousness.

Your evidence only supports that the two of them are very similar physically/athletically.  I don't think you've supported your broader argument that they are similar prospects.  You're basically unironically doing the meme on here where every short agile WR prospect = Steve Smith.

You've basically rubber-stamped the idea that they are the same. I've seen you pieing posts up and down the Huddle on that very narrative. It's your prerogative, like you say, but just be honest about it. That's not even up for debate anymore.

Furthermore, the preponderance of NFL rookie receivers need some type of help with their route trees, so you're really not saying anything with that.

His agility is what it is, it's really not up for debate. His body type---basically being jacked and/or naturally big---limits his lateral movement to a degree. Does that mean he's not worth a second round pick, especially when viewing the totality of his actual game or considerable upside? Well that's a question for individuals to answer on message boards and NFL franchises to answer in the 2024 NFL draft.

As prospects they are very similar. Yes.

He might be worth a 2nd round pick, I just don't think he's a great fit for us due to redundancy. I did this same thing about Funchess with KB on the roster. 

Why is this so triggering for you?

I’m looking for someone that can get open quickly, is already a good route runner, great at creating separation. And from what I’ve seen and read, that’s not Legette. 

Without that skill set, how do you think he’ll fit in our offense? And why don’t you think those skills are important?

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
