That is a bit over the top to me. Legette is athletically on higher level - like noticeably higher- to me. And I have not been a basher of either of those guys. (I mean I don’t think the are trash). 

I get the impression you think less of them than I do so you are putting Legette down pretty hard. 

Every player in the draft is a gamble, we’ll see soon enough what the deal is. 

 

 

Do you believe a 1st round pick should be an immediate impact player and likely starter thatvis NFL ready? (Especially on the worst team in the NFL)

Pretty much yes, but WRs historically are slower to develop. Mostly, that far down and in this particular draft... maybe a little soft in the 1st round (people say the sure thing bona fide types were gone by 15 or something)? The team’s roster is also a big factor and at 32 it’s probably pretty good in most cases so maybe not a clear day one starter.  

Biut 100% straight up day one starter, generally, yes I think you want the guy to be that. You want him to play a lot at the latest by seasons back half

I see you are probably implying Legette is a mistake because he may not be a day one starter? I think l he will be used and will contribute. I don’t know Canales style with that stuff either, that can also be a factor. 

Our 1st rounder last year, should not have been a day one starter I don’t think, as far as it goes, and we were so much more heavily invested. It is what it is.

    • This is about getting open and YAC....and the QB we have.  You basically are just highlighting average depth when targeted vs 2 players. .  And yeah, I often say AT is a small slow reliable TE in terms of what he does for us.   That's what he is.   I think a couple of you want to make this into a Renfrow argument.   I'm a Renfrow fan.  Renfrow does not check the box of what a BY O needs either at the slot.  Renfrow just a niche roleplayer at this level.  it's easy to look up how horrific AT is with the ball in his hands and in terms of getting open.....and it's also easy to look up what a low ceiling of an offense the steady AT diet produces w/ BY. 
    • The one time he's actively tried to lose was the best we've ever done.
    • I simply acknowledge BY is the QB.  And just like we did when we drafted him.....the type O you would need to setup around him for success was always pretty simple.  But we have done virtually the opposite.  XL dropping some passes isn't why we were ranked the 32nd O and 30th passing the past 2 years.  *Ricky Prohel was brought up only in regards to role function he served on the team.  Niche/specialist.   He wasn't eating up the snaps in the O.    AT should have a similar snap %. People could MAUL Ricky Prohel and put hands all over him.   We got to the Super Bowl in part because we were mauling guys (our slot CB).   You can't do that now.  AT has a MUCH easier life and still can't get open.  Or run.    If you live in 3 WR sets, with a weak armed QB, and you choose to put someone who can't get open or run in the slot.......well, your are going to have a weak pass O.  That's by design IMO.
