Xavier Legette struggling

A rookie isn't NFL caliber day one?! This is unprecedented! It's not as if the organization has millions invested in training and coaching to improve his athleticism and skill or something. Throw him away, he's useless.

 

Am I doing it right?

87 rode the pine as a rook and 89 couldn’t get a snap outside of st
 

wr is a tough transition as most guys can only run a third of the route tree. A lot do that is dude to the gimmicky offenses colleges run nowadays.  Anyone expecting xl to dominate in year 1 is setting themselves up for disappointment.  He will prob provide more highlights in sound bytes than actual plays on the field.

Dipper has been touting analytics since he inked the deal...reality is he isn't even close to  knowing  how to use NFL statistics and proof is drafting a  5 10 heisman qb... recently drafted a busted up RB....and now a one year one hit wonder in college...  my analytics say if u put ketchup on steak ur an idiot. I try to get pumped about this team but reality keeps hitting me in the face. Hope we got somethin game one...thats when the clock starts.....

If you can get things right with that it’s a plus.  Any tool that you can find, you use. 

Okay I won’t argue the drafting of Young. Hated it. And like to go by what my mind and experience tells me not a spread sheet or whatever. 

I did note that we hired maybe the leading analytical guy just this offseason. If analytics was responsible for where we are now... that guy has been replaced with a universally top rated dude.

Ja'Marr Chase struggled in camp and the learning curve for rookie receivers is very steep. this poo aint madden

Chase didn’t struggle in camp. He had the dropsies, i.e. getting open but not catching it. They are two completely different problems. Chase had 1455 yards and 13 TDs. There was no learning curve issue with him.

I get that Legette needs some time to develop but throwing out comparisons that aren’t remotely close doesn’t mean anything.

    • Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.  
    • I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us. 
    • From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
