I am so happy we got XL....he's got a chance to make Smitty worry about his goat status.  And the kid seems like such a good guy

Don't know anyone can pass Smitty other than his stats, he'll always be the goat.  I do expect XL to break all rookie receiving records.  Hopefully Bryce develops a connection with him and delivers the ball on time because I have a feeling he will have no problems getting open in the NFL.

He only needs NFL open. With a sharp, competitive QB throwing to him, he can make rain. 

I wish we had that.

I don't expect him to break KB's 1008 rookie receiving yards. KB got force fed the ball, we will have Thielen and Johnson ahead of him in terms of yards and catches imo.

So 1100 yards 10 TD, I'm ok with that.

I'm hoping it's Johnson, XL, then Theilen and Sanders with similar yards.  I think Theilen will play a Proehl role this season

True, only so many throws to go around however, I’m sure that Canales will run some plays directed specifically at XL, to take advantage of his skill set.  His YAC and touchdowns per pass directed at him should give some insight into what to expect in the future when the distribution favors him more.

I like supporting this guy, true fan working hard to provide us content. 

It's actually thoughtful and thorough. Stands out from the standard youtube patterns of speech and speaking without saying anything

    • Yeah they were bad QBs - but QB's that stayed on their teams for several years.  BY is better than all of those. 
    • This is the right move even if you think Bryce isn't the future. Everything except signing him to a long term deal until proven otherwise. There's a decent chance we have a shot to draft a QB next year that we like. 
    • If we're still bad enough that Canales gets fired, especially if it's during the season, there is no way we could ever attract any HC worthy of the job if we told them they had to keep Bryce their first year. That would be 2 coaches he's gotten fired and 4 years of not performing up to par. I still say replace both of them next offseason.  I like Canales the man and I think he's done an absolutely outstanding job at fixing our locker room issues, as it was really bad before he showed up.  But I just don't see it from him with his in game decision making, I think he's held us back just as much as Bryce has, just in different ways. Canales was our Dan Campbell, the coach you hire to turn the franchises culture around for the HC after them to inherit and take to the next level.   The difference was he had some elite coordinators early on and really let him focus on his "leader of men" role as opposed to the X's and O's that Canales does himself and it's turned out well for him.
