You don't think the huddle over reacts?

They can, but Legette has had more drops than 4 IMHO. I’m assuming they aren’t labeling “tougher” catches like today’s miss as a drop. IMHO, a first round WR needs to make that catch. That’s what makes someone a top WR, making tough catches in key moments.

Even if that's true, he is being measured the same as everyone else.  They aren't counting other recievers drops on hard catches and giving XL a break.  Honestly we don't know how they measure it, but you can still compare him with other recievers.

Rookies gonna rookie. Legette looks like he belongs which is all I'm really looking for in a rookie. Which is also a lot more than we could say for Bryce in pretty much all but a small handful of games. And saying "handful" is honestly being generous.

What you're calling "drops" are contested catches. We either have other guys open that Bryce is missing or Bryce trusts Legette to win. Either way, contested catches are obviously going to have a lower conversion rate.

This is what a "drop" looks like

 

 

I'm not even talking about contested catches, I'm talking about legit drops. I'm an X guy, not a detractor. I have always been excited for his potential and still am. I still hope that he works on his hands.

Other posters have posted the numbers. They are what they are. About what I expected. If you looked at the times Legette was open and Bryce just flat out missed in a clean pocket it would probably be a similar number. That's why Leggete's catch rate and Bryce's completion percentages are mirror images of one another.

Yessir, great white knight. Sorry for bringing up relevant numbers that provide perspective. Sleep tight tonight. You have a long day of defending Bryce's honor ahead of you tomorrow. Want some more relevant numbers? Bryce completed 60% of his passes today, his season average. Legette caught 67% of his targets.

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By rmoneyg35 · Posted

      Any idea what happened to him at LSU? im reading that he was considered a 1st round pick in 2023, had an off 2024 season with only 4 sacks but was also on a horrible FSU team then went to LSU where he was supposed to be on an aggressive defense that should have given him a lot of sacks but he only ended up with one….   was he injured? Did the top SEC competition expose him? What happened? Cause this guy was considered a top prospect .

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.
