Brandon LaFell vs. Legedu Naanee (ohhh look STATS! yay!)


R0CKnR0LLA

Recommended Posts

Naanee has 239 yards on the season and LaFell has 276. So going by a quick glance at a stat sheet it seems their production is pretty comparable. But lets dig a little deeper and look at production with their number of opportunities factored in.

Brandon LaFell

Targets: 24

Receptions: 17

Percentage: 70.8%

Yards: 276

YardsPerTarget: 11.5

Touchdowns: 2

Legedu Naanee

Targets: 45

Receptions: 22

Percentage: 48.8%

Yards: 239

YardsPerTarget: 5.3

Touchdowns: 0

If you apply his current production to a full 16 games Naanee is on pace for 90 targets, 478 yards and 0 TDs for the year.

Now if you supplant Naanee with LaFell and use his current yards/TDs per target (at least in theory *insert spooky music*) given the same amount of targets LaFell would be on pace for 1035 yards and 7-8 TDs.

Of course a million things change when you switch players roles, increase their involvement, ect but I thought it was interesting none the less.

We should just bring in TO, that will solve this.

Typing up a thread on that as we speak.

looks like it's time for me too logoff for the night then.

Neither one impress me. Lafell looked like he was out of breath catching the 4th down pass. He looked like he was running in sand.

Cud u further elaborate why he doesnt impress you? Is there a reason outside of him not running fast enough on a huge conversion to keep the game alive?

    • Little worried about Jarvy Shoulder and that torn cuff, it's needed surgery for 2 years now and he's gonna play with it injured again next season.    I like the toughness but would definitely prefer it to be fixed. He's an intritical player on the team going forward.    Also I was high on pain pills last time I wrote about saving cap space but I didn't go into detail cause I wouldn't have been able to do so. "still on a ton of pain medication but not as nearly as many, think I'm down to 23 pills a day from 32 a few days ago, 18 of them are for pain management in some form or another."     But I digress let's get to the point I was trying to make in my last post about saving, I'll now use Jarvis as an example.    Let's say the canes spend 23m of the 28m in space they have available. Then have Jarvis get surgery and put him on LTIR at the start of the regular season.  You let the cap space sit til the trade deadline. At the deadline that cap space would have accural on it and the team can use that space and spend 24m on incoming salary for the rest of the season. Let's say they bring in 5 players and send out two. "player A has an 8m AAV contract" he'd cost Carolina 4m the rest of the season. Player B makes 10 "cost of 5. So forth and so forth.  Using that accural system and the Jarvis LTIR, the Canes could then go into the playoffs with a healthy Jarvis and be 19m over the cap legally for a cup run. The more cap space available at the start of the season, the larger the accural would be at the trade deadline.    That was the first part of what I was going to try and articulate the other day but I'm on 35mg of oxy every 6 hours plus ketorolac and two other pain pills and another for kidney spasms.    Have a wonderful night everyone
