And again, the TLDR of the above is........

My expectations for T-Mac's rookie season have nothing to do with him and more because of my expectations for the rest of the WR room.

I think his 2nd season when we then lose Thielen and replace him by just shifting everyone else up a spot in the pecking order and replace him with an end of the bench guy, is when he explodes for a huge yardage season.

XL and Coker wouldn't make a good 1/2 combo with Thielen in the slot.  But T-Mac as the 1 with Thielen in the slot has the real potential to make XL/Coker an actual elite 2/4 combo.  Drafting T-Mac drastically changes the potential impact of those two, if anything, that's the biggest thing taking him did to the offense.

Because honestly, how many teams have a 3rd and 4th receiving option as good as XL and Coker?

Sorry man, I am not really buying what your are selling. This isn't like XL, IMO, who was obviously never going to work out. I believe McMillian is the best WR in this class so expecting him to get 1k yards(or very close) shouldn't be some crazy stretch. Again, if our offense overall just struggles, I get it. 

As for AT, love the guy but consistent 1k+ seasons are likely to stop happening in the near future so I just don't buy that as justification for why T-Mac would be unable to get the targets necessary to produce. That scenario is either he isn't working out as well as anticipated or the offense isn't working out as well as anticipated.

This!!!!! 

And I don't think we have to worry about Tmac getting his target share. He was requested by Bryce.

Oh poo, I had heard T-Mac played volleyball but I didn't know he also went to Junior Nationals for USAVB boys 14U (and won!) back in 2018. I was the setter for my 14U team when we went and got 8th back in 1999 (a team from Puerto Rico won and those kids could FLY 😮).

Shoot... now I'm gonna need him and XL to go off for 1k+ each and be the new vertical version of Double Trouble. 🙏

    • Well if you are gonna put it like that I probably would have to agree with you.  We’ll see how it goes. I am kind of rooting for seeing some Picket this year just for a change up. I root for a change up every year though lately. 
    • OK honestly I don’t identify like that but if I did I would think about being the first raised on TV generation (bad), we were probably latch key/before the term was invented - because I was raised by a single working parent, stuff like that. No baby sitters until after dark. Afternoons you just waited for an adult to show up. We were the bussing generation where they tried out their social engineering and forcing the races together in school (good and bad in that), and definitely the first bunch to have to deal with the threat of the big bomb going off. I, like everybody else was taken out in the hallway at school and taught how to and where to sit and receive my radiation dose if someone nuked us. And then they killed our president right in front of us. That is probably the most destabilizing thing that gets the least attention. The atomic bomb and the potus killing.  Around t(e same time we had the Beatles and music becoming a youth thing, with the youth gaining economic power they still have today, and top it off with a good memory of childhood - all tne Coke bottle caps had pictures of NFL players in them. We collected them. I particularly remember Mick Tinglehoff Minnesota Vikings lol. Complete with flattop haircut. We had pro football before there was ever a super bowl and in those days baseball was the king of sports in the US.But football was coming for them. And soccer was what weird funny talking foreigners did lol.
