He just needs to not be injured during off season workouts. 

That's a fair point.

What I don't like is he really performs worse the more he's out there, and he's as unreliable with the ball approaching him as Olindo Mare was on a field goal. Dan Morgan really batted .000 in his first draft.

Legette gets worse every game he plays. If he's out there Week 18, maybe he can set a franchise record for drops in a game.

Never take a guy in the first round that's a body catcher as a WR.  I'd take a slower and shorter WR that's got super glue for hands over a tall and fast guy with hands of stone.  That said, I wanted McConkey.

I was fine with going after the local guy. Huge-ass mistake on my part to ever be alright with a Panthers draft pick. I've learned my lesson, though -- we're 5 1/2 months from making another pick, and he already sucks.

Legette wasn't a body catcher in college. I personally think he's still having a tough time with that wrist injury and gutting through it.

I would prefer they keep looking in the drat until they hit on one. Don't matter want round just as long as he has great hands and is fast. 

Indeed. More Coker's and less TMJ/Mingo/XL's please. Get ACTUALLY fundamentally sound WR's. If it ends up being a Nabers/Jefferson type, even better. But the beginning and end of the WR discussion should be about how fundamentally sound of a WR you are.

Way too early for that kind of talk

Man you’re funny but in all seriousness one thing we’re not taking into consideration is he seems to have hit his rookie wall. Because he’s definitely decreasing in production. We’re at week 15 that’s a lot of football for rookies some handle it better then others XL right now might need to regroup it appears he mentally fatigued hopefully he can get it together

Actually he was a body catcher and the reason I wasn't as high on him as some.  If he somehow feel to us in the 2nd round, I would have been fine with him.  I did not have a first round grade on him due to body catching and route running being insufficient.

On the plus side his route running has improved and he's getting open. 

But his catching still rates as atrocious

      Why is it a no-brainer? I mean the idea of a hold out made me laugh out loud.

      Oh, oh. I see what you are saying. Yeah but not all of those were draft for draft replacements. Jones was a dumpster dive. The overall point I was making is that it is becoming more common to see this quick pivots as people realize their mistakes. It happens with a lot of busts historically at QB.  IDK about "most teams" have fast, capable WR's. It's a mixed bag across the league. There are the Hopkins, Evans, etc that aren't sub-4.5 guys and are still star players.

      So if it comes down to that, and it played out, we could be looking at a post June 1 designation for his 5th year money at best. Assuming it is guaranteed which I don’t know.     13.25 mil cap hit in 2027 and 2028.   I have to admit I never really went into the angles after picking up the option. I have always been don’t do it.    So, you pay him the 12 mil for year 4 and if you want out when they go into extension lobbying you trade or cut.  Is that conceivable?   The thing about trading is, I believe all the guaranteed money hits your cap right then. That’s 26.5 million if correct.  So if they picked up the 5th, this would cover the ‘we want out’ expenses from our end, after year 4.   Correct?
