Anthony Mix Must Be Our Man

You guys just crack me up. If he had it in him he would have stepped in and stepped up last season. There is a reason why he was a part time starter in college and barely has an NFL roster spot.
There are very few recievers, that do well in there first year. Start looking up good recievers and you will find that most start to produce in their third year. People, making such definative statements about Mix, being good or bad, are forming an opion without any facts. Even, Calvin Johnson, the second player picked in the draft, did not do much his first year.

I dont think mix is good enough.

yet that "not very much" is still about 1,000,000 times more than mix. there's a difference between not becoming an instant superstar and not even getting on the field, and i don't think i'll be comparing calvin johnson and mix anytime soon either.

he contributes and hes not currently overpaid... what is this thread about again?

I respect your opion on alot of things, but as far as I know, you are just another fan(not an authority on NFL personnel). I made no comparison, between Mix and Johnson. You are just attempting to belittle me, as you do to many people, when you dont share their opinion. 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.

756 yards while spliting catches with Roy Williams (836 yds), Shaun McDonald (943 yds), and Mike Furrey (664 yds) isn't doing much? Lol, man I'd hate to be a rookie on your team witih standards like that. "Johnson get more yards then Adrian Peterson this year or else you're off the team."

I really want to find out who started Mix-Mania, because it's one of the most utterly ridiculous 1+1=2 phenomenoms I've ever seen. If I had to guess I think it might have started something like this in a land called ExtremeSkins.


Master Cheif: Hey guyz u guyz holy shit u guyz. vinny Sirato say we need huge reciever dis offseason 4 grate justice. i find guy on roster dat r 6'5. this is such a big ****ing deal. plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz z zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz z give Mix shot

13 Year Old Fan: ZOMG, and he has 95 speed on Madden and hes 6 foot five. this is r guy but y so many z in please

Master Cheif: B/c i think the more z's i put in plz the more chance dan snyder r give Mix shot.

14 y/o fan: DOES ANY1 NO ANYTHING BOUT HIM CUZ HE LOOKS 1337!one!!!1!

Mstr Chief: well he r have chance to win supper b0wl w da vigiants but we sign him to practice squad and he r recover squib kick so shuizam can miss 5 inch FG >: (

semi-informed fan: he also played wit campbell at auburn could be a good fit.

Every1 else: WOW THIS IS GREAT! WE DON'T NEED TO LOOK AT ANYONE. MIX IS THE GREATEST THING SINCE SLICED BREAD lololollololololololololololo


Ok so maybe it didn't start like that but I really sometimes I wonder if the our fanbase is smoking rocks. Theres a huge difference to me between giving a guy a shot, and annointing someone as a savior for a particular need. In this case a possible #1 Reciever that Cerato and Dan Snyder are looking for.

Ironically if you guys really want Mix to play then your best chance would be for us to sign Hacket. With Hackets history of injuries we might need to carry an extra reciever or two on the roster. But seriously this whole Mix thing has me dumb founded.

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.

Watching that playoff game against SEA... Hackett is no better than Caldwell. Let's look to the draft for a #2 WR.

Oh my friggin GOD, that was funny. Matty and SS, get this guy on the payroll because that Extreme conversation was comedic genius!

I didn't see That Guy as belittling you on that one, might want to tone down the sensitivity.

And he's right. Calvin Johnson had a darn good rookie season in that offense. Anthony Mix never friggin plays.

How you can even compare their talent, nevermind production, is beyond me. One is super fast, the other is kind of sorta fast. One is quick as a cat, the other is slow as molasses when coming in and out of breaks.

Besides his height and his half-decent speed, can I ask you to please identify what you think makes Anthony Mix a starting caliber WR?
