Quadzilla with some stretch armstrong that looks like he runs a legit low 4.4 on the field.

I also come back to what this regime tends to look for in WR's. I just don't know that they want anyone who may continue to struggle as a "route runner" if they're not fast.

Atleast with some of the guys, if they don't develop, you've got speed.

Every year i end up crushing on one of these later round WR's. Last year it was Trey Palmer, who didn't have a great statistical year playing behind Evans and Godwin, but he did make some damn nice plays for them.

This year my crush might be Legette, lol.

Every time I saw Palmer highlights during the season I thought about you lol.

Love Legette too. I'd probably even be ok with taking him at 32 if they did.

Not gonna be able to block, gets jammed at the line. Dude is 170 lbs soaking wet.

Idk man. I’ve seen these speedy small guys fail too much. Andy Isabella, Calvin Austin, Tutu Atwell etc that don’t really provide that.

I feel like the value of that position with limitations makes it not worth a 1st rd pick to me. I really want some size to go with my WR’s now. We saw smaller guys like Toney and Hardman build up injuries while bigger WR’s like Rice seem to be able to play through shit more often.

Legette did nothing at all for four years.

I mean nothing. Not even Skyy Moore production.

I am extremely skeptical.

I'm not sure that really has as much to do with size as it does with mentality.

Didn't realize that he used to play QB, so it's entirely possible that he was just REALLY raw. I mean, he still is.

I agree. I want a wr with a competitive nature. He didn’t compete for 4 years and then blows up. That’s a red flag for me.

I wonder how our offense would look with AD Mitchell and Keon Coleman as X and Z, using rice as the big slot and Kelce as Y2. I feel like they are attainable at 32 and 64. If we trade Sneed, we should still end up with ammo to obtain a tackle in the early second.

This is interesting to me. Coleman had the 2nd fastest go route time of 21.71. Only Brian Thomas beat him. Did worthy, Mitchell, Rome, Franklin participate in this drill? How would Coleman out run all those guys on these drills? See image below.

He had the fastest Gauntlet speed also.

Said it before, I think the kids a football player not track star.

I'd be stoked to have him!

I think Coleman and Legette might be the best red zone threat WRs within range.

Isaiah Williams flipped the switch in a year after playing QB in college for 2 years with half the physical traits. It's more than that.
