Will Legette be “red shirted” this year?

And it was a bit behind him, too. He should've caught it, but it was behind him a bit. If Young threw it, I doubt it'd be considered a drop on here. Probably a bad throw.

If you go look at the thread showing the all 22 of his routes you will see why he didn’t get any catches. The Plummer throw and one other on opening drive (the catch by Thielen) he was even open to catch a pass.

7 years is patient enough I'd say.

right so proving my point by tying XL's success before he plays one real game to 7 years of evaluating someone who isn't XL

927 yards and 3 td's on 49 catches his first year rookie is a jag? That's like the numbers average of DJ Moores first 3 years with way less receptions lol. 

Yes, those were good numbers, but nowhere near what they were after his rookie year. Was just saying, even arguably the best receiver ever had to adapt, adjust and learn during his rookie year. We're talking maybe the best ever. Lets just give Legette time, let him adjust. He may not put up 927 yards on 49 catches. Or maybe he surprises, catches on and explodes after a bit of time this year. Lets just be patient and see. This guys has all the makings of a big time playmaker.

And in a completely different era of the NFL where hitting 1000 years was a big deal and offenses did not pass nearly as much.

Jag was the wrong word to use. I'm fresh out of spinal surgery, so was a big foggy when I wrote that. Guess what I was saying was that Rice was expected to be all pro level his rookie year. He even admitted that he really struggled his rookie year, but yeah, the signs were there and decent numbers. All we can hope for is the same with Legette... and who knows, maybe at some point in the season it happens. Guy has the goods, we've seen it. Lets see if it manifests.
