A lot of you are missing the real issue here. While being an awesome talent at Washington, Bailey lacked some aspects of of professionalism that made his transition to the NFL much more difficult.RoadDawg55 said:
Nobody does think that about Mickens, but great post. If you watch an older NFL game, it was a lot different.theknowledge said:
Bailey playing the slot in today’s soft AF NFL is probably a weapon. He was just too small to play in a league where defenders could actually touch you. Don’t think for a minute that Mickens can hold Mario’s jock strap. Just don’t.chuck said:
Yeah you could hardly tell them apart other than Mickens testing faster. Bailey caught more than he dropped too.longduckdong said:
He is like a faster version of Mario Bailey. (And a bit quicker)EsophagealFeces said:I still don’t know how the fuck he made it in the NFL
Love this guy!
A little research into the issue will show you that one of Washington’s former coaches was at Houston the same time Bailey was there. This same coach was responsible for getting Corey Dillion drafted by Cincinnati and very close to both situations. Everyone has talent in the NFL, and are separated by film preparation, practice effort and the ability to play though injury and pain.
Bailey will always be one of the best college receivers to play for Washington. But just like other very talented college athletes he lacked certain intangibles that are required for the NFL.
I’m not sure you can classify the league today as being soft, when you have 280 lb defensive ends running 4.5-4.6 40’s. -
It’s not soft but receivers run free in the middle of the field with no fear of getting their head knocked off. Receivers running down the seam and on slants used to get ear holed.NeGgaPlEaSe said:

It's fucking hilarious, and just goes to show, but who woulda thunk Jaydon "the meme" Mickens would be better in the league than offseason champ John Ross?

He's not. Ross has 38 more career receptions, 600 more yards and 8 career TDs.dtd said:It's fucking hilarious, and just goes to show, but who woulda thunk Jaydon "the meme" Mickens would be better in the league than offseason champ John Ross?
I don't think Mickens value as a returner makes up that kind of difference. -
Never has a 40 yard kick off return been so legendary
