Legette is horrendous

[electro's horse]

And dor the record WRs generally don’t learn to catch with their hands in the nfl. You either do that or you don’t

Imagine playing one of the best teams in the league with the best defense on the road and having the game winning touchdown dropped and blaming the qb 

[Panthering]

I’m pissed because I’ll always defend him because he’s a Gamecock but his drops are indefensible. You just aren’t that guy, guy.

One of the highest drop percentages? 

Yes, among qualified WRs.  Going into the game he was 14th among WRs with 100 snaps.  2 or 3 drops today, whatever the PFF officially marks him for, will likely push him into the top 10 if not top 5.  And the WRs ahead of him are mostly scrubs.

Go all in on Tee Higgins

Is it?  He had one of the highest drop %s in the NFL coming into this game and had 3 drops this game.  Even if we don't blame him for the first one (and I would agree we shouldn't fault him for that), that is still 1 too many drops for a 1st round WR.

I'm not saying he won't ever get better, although I doubt it.  But right now?  In this very moment?  He is a bad WR.  

OK, 17th. I guess you could say that's high. He needs work on the jugs for sure.

Some people just dont have the capacity to admit when they’re wrong and would rather drag it out as long as possible.

I missed the second half. Sounds like Legette and his no hands showed up.

I mean you can't compare him to RBs.  Among WRs he's 11th on that list and guys like Nabers and Lamb get way more targets than Legette, so it makes sense they would rank high in drops.  Drop % is a better number to look at for that reason.

You knew it’d happen. We’re still in need of a QB comparison thread as well.

I don’t know how drops are officially categorized but I counted 5 today. 4 if you want to say that first drive should not have counted cause he got hit hard, even tho it hit him in both hands. 
 

that just isn’t sustainable to move forward with as your #1

He will get better if he wants it. He was a raw prospect. He’s still a rookie in the NFL. Like I said earlier if he was in year 3 and playing like he is now, cut him. 

Why the fug are we trading up for raw prospects in the first fuging round?

[frankw]

We actually had two drives to score the potentially game winning touchdown and we squandered both.

Some people want to find scapegoats. I'm just encouraged our head coach had us in position to even possibly win this one more than once on the road against the Eagles. That gives me hope going forward. Now we just need to add more pieces.

Player of the Game. That man saved us from shooting ourselves in the dick and costing ourselves draft position.
