Your point about how they should not be compared, is exactly right. What I was pointing out is, that a top talent like Calvin Johnson did not do a whole lot, in his rookie year, so why would anyone expect more from Mix. He was a project, with all the physical tools. Maybe, he is ready now.
Also, I dont agree with your opinion with B. Johnson. I think, he is exactly what we need. He is a big red zone target. Santana is our #1. |
having a difference of opinion and thinking a guy that had trouble staying on a practice squad should be our "guy" are two different things.
this mix stuff is closer to the "let's bring lavar back" and "how come ramsey never got a shot" arguments than anything else. I'm sorry i'm not allowed to bring up "facts" like Ca J's 756yds vs mix's 0 and say that i wouldn't compare them after you just used Ca J as an example of why mix should get a shot without proving to the coaches first that he even deserves to get on the field.
if you'd like to argue facts, i'd love to discuss this further, but there really aren't many beyond "mix is 6'5" and that's the only reason he should start"
if i've missed something, please let me know, but crying foul and saying Ca J didn't do much isn't exactly true. there are lots of 6'5" 4.4 guys at local gyms that aren't going to be great WRs either. i just think this hype is unreal.
my response isn't just for you, because there are LOTS of people hyping this guy, and maybe he'll be a decent player eventually, but too many people are talking about him like he's about to put up 1500 yards after being a part time college player without a great track record.
