How is this different than the Mingo pick last year. Same size, same 40, we needed Ladd separators and we blew it.  

this is what scared me the most about him and why I didnt want him through this whole process.

I wanted him to run decent routes or get seperation. 

I mean, I’m a Clemson fan.  Hating on the Gamecocks is my jam.  Leggette is the type dude you take a shot at. He ain’t Mingo.  All Carolina has to do is keep him trending in the direction he is going

A cup of coffee in the morning you will feel a lot better about this pick tomorrow morning trust me.

 

Legette plays like coffee tbh strong and energetic!

 

What 220 pound WR's can take it 80 for the TD?  

 

Not many Metcalf, Deebo, Legette.

If KC and Buffalo had not swapped picks, we'd never have moved up.  Brandon Bean  did his buddy Morgan a solid.  Swapping an fifth for a sixth and getting the fifth year option was brilliant--

Anyone comparing Mingo and XL IMO hasn’t really watched a lot of the two.  They just aren’t comps.  XL doesn’t play like Mingo

He scares me as a late bloomer, but we need all the help we can get. If he can develop his route running he could be a legit X receiver. I still want to double dip 

Yep. I hope we get Malik Washington, and I will be satisfied...but not before we take Payton Wilson, Sainristil or Kool-Aid (if he happens to be there).

Me too, but someone described how screwed up the situation at SC was--Folks, Xavier wanted to be here--he wanted to be near his remaining family.  Great story.  I think he will be moved around--like a Deebo.  Wonder how much of this is related to the new Kickoff rules--XL was a kick returner.

    • Right. But you do understand that there is no such thing as not signing free agents, right? That's what I mean. So make some good free agency moves and do well in the draft. That's step one. If you can't accomplish that, then this will just keep getting worse.
    • Sweet jebus this is idiotic Yes, overall team success in this league, you need a good QB, but beyond just that painfully obvious fact, let's get into the rest of the stupid in there......... First things first, you say.. "if we need a good QB for him to have success, then why are you drafting that player with the #1 pick" Show me one time I've ever said we would need a good QB for T-Mac himself to have success... you can't, because I never have.  I think you're referring to the "he's bad enough that we then have a Top 5 pick to target a QB" part of my post, which is very clearly talking about said QB, not T-Mac.  The other way to interpret that is just overall team success, which again, wouldn't be anything about T-Mac or his ability to impact the offense or overall team wins and losses. I'm quite sure I could do this with a number of teams over the years, but I don't want to spend the time to do multiple, so I'll keep it to just the 2023 Vikings right now since you wanted to use Jefferson as your example....... The Vikings went 3-6 after Cousins went down last year.  And two of those wins came before Jefferson even came back from his own injury, they were 1-4 in the final 5 weeks after Jefferson came back. In those 5 games, Jefferson had 31 catches, 503 yards, and 2 TDs Having the WR you specifically called out didn't help them go better than 1-4 with a bad QB, even though he still put up a great stat line for that time period either.  It also didn't make that QB good enough to where they then went out and brought in TWO new QB's this year to replace Doubs and Mullens who started down the stretch for them last year. And that's with 4th year Jefferson, not a rookie that T-Mac would be If you expect a WR getting drafted #1 overall to be the player to turn a franchise as bad as we are around in 1 season, make whatever QB we're able to put in there be successful, and lead us to a solid season, then you are literally insane. We are AWFUL, we have a few young guys who could turn into great players, but we are so far from being a good team, that there isn't any player we could draft next year that is going to change that in 2025.
