The only thing I like about RAS is that it puts a lot of statistical information in front of you in one box.
But the score itself doesn't seem to tell us anything useful. For example, if we take two players, X and Y, and player X has a score of 9.0 and player Y has a score of 9.5, what exactly does that tell me about either player or why player Y is 0.5 points better? It is convenient though just in terms of putting all those stats on one page. And of course, all the pretty colors. |

That video shows the thing that's just great for him - his body control.
Notice how he turns completely around and heads to the outside, all without really slowing down at all. The end result is beating his man to the corner and a bunch of extra YAC. He's going to be a lot like Juju only younger and faster. |

Planting that left foot to start his cut and YAC as he's catching the football. The guys that are great YAC getters don't do it by accident - they do little stuff like that. They do those things you only notice when you get beat over the head with it (see: Years of wondering how guy like Kelce is constantly finding yardage after the catch) or specifically look for it. Rice's YAC totals aren't an accident. He's just good at that sort of thing. |

I think he'll outperform JJSS, yes. But you're essentially saying that he'd better be a 1,200 yard receiver because we traded a pick outside of the top 100 to take him. Huh? |

I think Rice ends up as a good number 2 WR, he reminds me quite a bit of Michael Gallup.

Yeah, that trade was nothing if Beach got the guy he liked. It should also be noted that we have more players than spots at this point and Bert continues to add nice looking guys as USFAs. We're sitting in a pretty good spot currently.

True but at WR we're going to cross our fingers a couple of these guys workout because it's a position of unknowns.

Then why can't I believe he should perform at that level and be a 1,200 yard WR? I don't think he will this season, and it might take a couple seasons before he's all the way there, but why shouldn't I expect at least that much, unless he's really just another middling player we probably shouldn't have drafted with that pick? Again, i don't have that expectation in 2023, but I do by 2025. Is that not realistic? |

Yeah - 'expecting' top 10 WR production from a 2nd rounder at any point in his contract is too much. Again - about half of all 2nd round picks become starters by the 3rd year of their deal. Do I think that's a reasonable expectation? It's a reasonable goal, for sure. Expectation? Well again, as many as not fail. Same problem that always surfaces with Hardman. Hardman was fine for where he was drafted but the 'expectation' was a superstar. That's not who you get outside of the top 50, fellas. |
