    Except he was truly injured. He warmed up and tried to go and couldn't. Stop the hate. If you rewatch you can even see the moment he got hurt in the Utah championship game. Rapp was a huge part of the rebirth.
    Even I thought he was holding out of the game, then I rewatched the Utah game and he got absolutely rolled on during a safety blitz. Really bad.

    You didn't even know who Doug Baldwin was in college. Your analysis is "he didn't get drafted so he must not have been good".

    Just stop talking.
    That's kind of the point. He was average in college so nobody knew who he was. It's a fair comparison for Fuller. Stop pretending you think Fuller is really good and you have his back because he's one of our guys you bleeding heart doog. You don't, because he hasn't proven it yet. Most here would prefer it if Terrell Bynum or Puka Nacua beat Fuller out. I doubt you're any different.

    I'd be thrilled if somebody beat Fuller out because that means we have somebody even better than the guy who is going to play in the league.

    Adding some context to what you're saying would probably help. If you look at career college stats you can make the argument that Fuller has certainly had a similar career arc to Baldwin up until this point. Baldwins senior year in 13 games he had 58 receptions for 857 and 9 tds. Baldwin was injured his Junior year and only played 7 games and Andrew Luck was a Freshman. Fuller in his junior year in 14 games had 58 receptions for 874 and 4 tds. One had Andrew Luck throwing to him, the other had Jake Browning. Baldwin was Luck's #1 receiver in 2010, just like Fuller was last season for Browning. For further context Browning went 252/388 while Luck went 263/372. Similar volume, less efficiency.

    Insert Junior Adams and Jacob Eason. If Adams is as good of a developer as he's touted, then you can assume or hope that sharper routes are being run, and more of an attack the ball mentality that hes been preaching all fall camp. If Eason ends up being what everyone expects him to be and can make the proper reads and get the ball out with better timing and pace, I don't see why you wouldn't expect Fuller and the rest of the JAG recievers to also improve. If Fuller is our #1 I would expect him to have a better Senior year than Baldwin did tbh.

    He had twice the yards of anyone else on Stanford his senior year. It was a mistake by the whole league that he want drafted. Harbaugh didn’t give him a good recommendation either. If Fuller is Baldwin, that’s great.

    The HAWKS did pretty good with Stanford guys. You could say that they don't win a SB without them. Also Kearse from the Pac 12

    We? don't suck after all!

    Fuck off doog. We want future 1st and 2nd round picks at WR like Ross and Dante. Not late round picks or UDFA who are basic for us but manage to make an NFL roster by the skin of their teeth because they get better and are heady and use crafty WR tricks of the trade to make plays and are cheap for GM's to sign. After all those plays Baldwin made for the Hawks, he was still paid chump change compared to the top receivers in the league. His greatest value was that he was easy to keep on the roster because of his low cap hit whereas guys like Golden Tate and Paul Richardson had higher market values and got PAID. I'm not rooting against Fuller. I want him to have a big season but obviously we want more talented guys as our go-to receivers.

    It wasn't a mistake. Most small guys that aren't fast don't make it. The league was right to assume he was one of those guys who couldn't make it. He defied the odds. I see we got some bleeding heart 12's in here as well as bleeding heart doogs. The season being right around the corner has those doog juices flowing. :D
