Xavier Legette

Xavier Legette, a standout receiver from South Carolina, showcased his skills with exceptional performances, notably in his super senior year. At 6'3" and 227 lbs, his size and athleticism make him ideal for an outside receiver role. With strong hands and the ability to secure catches in traffic, he's reliable even without relying on his body. Despite concerns about consistency as a one-year wonder entering the NFL at 23, his physical traits resemble players like D.K. Metcalf, hinting at his potential. Drafted in the first round by the Carolina Panthers, his success may hinge on how well he's utilized in their scheme under new HC Dave Canales.

The Carolina Panthers have selected Xavier Legette with the No. 32 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Fantasy Impact

The selection gives Bryce Young another WR to work with. With Dave Canales now in the fold, this offense should show great improvements. Legette will have to compete with Adam Thielen and Diontae Johnson for targets in his rookie year.
