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.

      FLA showed everyone it’s not about superstars. they bullied the best line in the NHL into obscurity. they played hard, were in the right positions, and ran over everything that got in their way.

      That’s really not what you said and when I even expressed doubt as to your intentions with the post you doubled down and remained unclear on whether you were trying to drag Dean Smith for whatever reason. You just got the facts wrong, which if you don’t follow the local college programs like you say then maybe you just were mistaken and thought Smith didn’t win championships or have legit superstars, and that is ok, but you just doubled down when my first post was more corrective than anything. I’m not sure what you expect posting objectively false things like “RBA has a lot of wins with nothing to show for it like Dean Smith” (paraphrasing) on a message board with plenty of UNC fans. I’m not taking it as a personal affront, we can agree to disagree, Dean Smith’s legacy fortunately will not be affected by this conversation. Screw the (Florida) Panthers?

      Bring in the free agents and trades.  Florida is the best team and unless Tulsky makes it happen, it’s more of the same…which isn’t bad…but it’s time to win a goddamn cup.
