Anyone know XL’s drop % rate?

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.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By frankw · Posted

      I enjoyed reading this thread and the usual banter that follows. The only silver lining I can identify right now is we do actually have a couple of young QB's behind him and we do have a nice roster on both sides of the ball built around the most important position. So if the team overall shows some promise but we still falter largely due to a lack of consistent passing output (again) hopefully the decision makers can be free to make the best decision for the team going forward after the conclusion of this upcoming season.

      I don't really follow the team anymore due to a variety of reasons and consequently have largely stopped posting but I agree that this is a lovely website and community. This forum probably kept me around for years longer than I would've stuck otherwise because of how difficult it was to stop checking multiple times a day. Especially appreciate how lax the moderation tends to be compared to a lot of places, the crew here does a great job. Out of curiousity I decided to try making a new account (solely for testing purposes) to see what exactly is wrong with the sign up process. The issue seems to be that it never sends you an account verification email, thus making it impossible to complete registration. This is likely something to do with the email server upstream, hope it gets fixed. Also, lol

      Uh oh, Nicole Tepper hugged him. In all seriousness though every time I see more about him my hopes get higher. Smart, great attitude, prototype size and measurables, and athletic. He could be a great one.
