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?

    • LOL... Yet again proving you can't look below anything than what you see on the surface Mock drafts ARE NOT draft grades They are what people think will happen.  They are mocking teams taking QB's in the top 5 of the draft because that's just historically how drafts go regardless of the grades on the QBs.  Almost every draft expert, even those mocking QB's going high, have said time and time again that none of these QB's actually grade out as those type of picks. This is again, where I say you don't like to actually read what I have to say, because I already explained it. 2022 the exact same thing happened, mock drafts had guys like Pickett and Willis going in the Top 5 because that's just what teams usually do, but GM's listened to their prospect grades and knew they weren't worth taking that high, so they didn't. It's not to say QB's won't go that high this year, but it's to say that they aren't graded out as elite QB prospects.  Mock drafts 
    • Have you seen the mock drafts lately?   Most of them have us taking a QB. Just because you aren't high on these QBs doesn't mean the Panthers or other teams aren't.   If you want me to be real I just think you a Tmac homer and all you care about is us drafting him. It's why you get so defensive when people mention other prospects.   Be open to other people's ideas. Nobody in this thread is saying anything bad about your boy Tmac. 
    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
