That's a traditional sized OLB/edge rusher. We just drafted him to be a DE. I liked Burns more as an edge in a 3-4 than a DE. 

Wasn't that when we assembled a bunch of 3-4 personnel and then stuck 'em in a 4-3 all year?

They are not the same. Tet is 6 foot 4 with silky smooth agility and soft hands with 3 consistent years of good production in college at WR, while Legette was 6 foot 1, heavier, faster, more raw prospect with only one year of college production.

Just my opinion. McMillian is a was a much more established player coming out of college and Legette was a raw project the team was hoping to mold into a threat. Totally different circumstances and players. The only correlation is that they are both somewhat bigger WRs and neither having blazing down field speed. 

 

in theory they are both big slow wr that supposedly go up and get the ball, neither are elite at route running and neither have elite speed, they are essentially the same player

If a WR doesn't go here.....this is gonna get rough for Golden, Burden, etc. 

not really. They could easily all go in the top 10 picks of R2 as well. We haven't gotten to the playoff contenders at the end of R1 who can make luxury picks on WRs.

I don't know... The only thing I think he has working for him is his athleticism. His hands are still awful and he doesn't know how to run good routes 

I saw him open a lot and he did have drops but he was known for good hands before last season I thought, Didn't he have a wrist injury last season? Sorry, i just don't get all the negativity in the huddle which is why i rarely post anymore but it is draft bight so I'm talking before going mostly silent for the rest of the year, lol

XL was a 4.39 40 guy. Is that slow now?

Also, Tet didn't run a slow 40. He ran basically the same general 40 time(4.5-4.6) that guys his size usually do(minus the freaks). Evans, Hopkins, London, etc.

I really am curious what trade offers were offered to us that we turned down. If it was anything close to the trade rape Cleveland pulled off, we blew it IMO

I think we would have taken a similar offer.  That offer only existed because Hunter was one of the only elite prospects.

    • Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.  
    • I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
    • I hate Marchand, but if he became a free agent.....
