while T-mac is a SOLID rookie, I don't see OROTY in him but it's more indicative how the rest of the draft class is either injured (Dart / Emeka) or stinks (Ward)

Dude, he's had to endure Bryce "180" Young. Talking about a handicap...For Tetairoa to have the production he's had is a miracle. And, as you should know, the best ability is availability. If Egbuka and Dart are injured, they can't be OROTY. If Ward is having rookie troubles or whatever, OROTY is out of the realm of reality. I'd say it all equals out---akin to poetic justice.

Where's the loyalty? Keep pounding, and not for the opposition.

T-mac will be a perennial top 10 receiver for years to come---too five if we can get our QB straight.

It's not rookie Chase or Jefferson numbers but it's typical best rookie WR numbers.

By no means do I think he's Jefferson quality but he is putting up 31% of our passing yards, which is only 2% less than Jefferson did his rookie year for the Vikings. And he's got 6 of our 19 passing TDs (vs 7 of 35 over a full year).

I don't think he's quite that good but I'd love to see him with consistent competent QB play.

He is already good with a very limited offense and QB.

I think he deserves the award (so far) and further, think he has a great mentality and attitude.  He isn’t a diva, at all that I see. He was a great pick. 

Exactly!! Modern day Larry Fitzgerald!!

If you look at it with context,  the fact that Tmac is putting up those numbers on a wildly inconsistent offense like the Panthers with a QB that throws for sub 200 most of his games, is probably way more impressive than Ebuka balling with Baker launching poo down the field constantly on a team that's won the division multiple years in a row. 

I think it's going to come down to how he finishes up the year, Tmac and Ebuka go head to head twice in the last 3 weeks of the season. That will settle who wins most likely.  Especially if we win the games against Tampa.  

Conversely if Tampa sweeps us and Tmac has poor stats, Ebuka could win.

McMillan is the 7th overall receiver in the NFL right now. Not rookie, but all of the NFL right now. This fact should not be undervalued or downplayed. He is in front of Jefferson (albeit with 3 more snaps) and behind Chase (albeit with 13 less snaps). He's right there with them, and that's notwithstanding the Panthers situation, and notwithstanding that he is a rookie. I say, "He is in their stratosphere," and I ain't stuttering.  We have a real one, regardless of who doesn't realize it.

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
