Probably because he has three total catches in three seasons in the NFL, and at Auburn his best season was 23 catches for less than 300 yards.

Yet another reason I shake my head at how badly much of the fan base is slurping this dude.

Meks · 04-02-2008, 06:44 PM

im not sold on him.

RobH4413 · 04-02-2008, 06:46 PM

Only thing I could find so far...

GMScud · 04-02-2008, 07:01 PM

That's funny, the only footage anyone can find of him is from someone's cell phone camcorder during a pre-season game.

I'm negative about the whole Mix thing. And I hope people around here don't think it's just for the sake of being negative. I just think it's totally absurd to have so much faith, and frankly so much blind optimism in a dude who has done exactly nothing in the NFL and very little in college.

I've said this before - I would love for the guy to pan out and become a big contributor to this team. But the chances are slim, and to stand pat at WR simply because we have him on the roster is just plain dumb.

Meks · 04-02-2008, 07:08 PM

^ agreed.... sure give him a shot, and work on improving him - cuz size and althleticism is what he DOES have... hands so i hear to, but yea, blind faith is obsurd, work with the guy, maybe he becomes a solid 3 or 4 or both in rotation..

drafting marcus monk or jordy nelson i still feel is needed.

Well...I just say give him a shot in preseason and if he is a bust then we are moving on.

He's projected as a 6th rounder at best, more likely 7th round. I wouldn't say drafting him is necessarily needed, but it could be interesting, as long as we don't reach for him. Besides, and I said this in another thread, we already have Marcus Monk. His name is Anthony Mix.

touche.

Ok, lets give him a shot in pre-season and find out that he is a bust, but exactly who do we move on with?

This is so true...you can't go into the season needing a big WR and try to bank on one who has done nothing anywhere since high school. It really doesn't make sense.

Mattyk · 04-03-2008, 08:30 AM

Wow, it's been a while since our last Mix thread. LOL

But seriously, people need to chill a bit. Just because some people are optimistic about seeing what he can do does not mean that they have blind faith or are banking on Mix to be the next superstar WR. Sometimes optimism is just optimism. I'm looking forward to seeing what he's capable of too.

hooskins · 04-03-2008, 03:04 PM

Yo tambien. All I have been saying is that even excluding that extremely lucky special teams play in Seattle, he has been around the ball on teams and he is working. hell I didnt know who Mix was until the latter half of the season, but I started noticed him because he was making plays.

RobH4413 · 04-03-2008, 03:44 PM

I remember when we first got him...reading the NYG message boards. They were genuinely pissed that they let him go... (granted they probably got over it fairly shortly)

Mix earned his his spot on this team in 08, and has himself an opportunity to get a hard look as a 3rd or 4th wide out. He's the kind of receiver (size wise) that everyone (including me) has been saying we need. He'll get his shot... and that's far more than I would have ever expected out of some no-name NYG castoff. I share the optimism felt for him... but he realistically holds little value at this point.

I think it's a mistake to stay pat with the WR's we've got. We've got two slot type guys in ARE & Moss, and it gets awfully ambiguous as to what's left on the roster.

What do I think we need? Possession type? Yeah... but that's a pretty broad term. I think we need someone big, that runs solid routes across the middle... someone that will force the safeties to cheat in. Doesn't have to be a speedster, but has to mismatch against LB's. We need a threat across the middle. Someone to give ARE and Moss the sidelines for screens and fades.

----------
Here's a random snapshot I took of special teams huddled up during the buffalo game. Mix looks pretty big compared to some of those other guys.
