I'm not saying there are no good Legendaries. I'm saying that there are lots and lots of ones that are bad. And moreover than even that, most Legendaries are not better than other similar level yellows. Legendaries should be legendary. If you're a level 25 caster and you find a level 25 caster Legendary, you should be freaking excited to equip it. You should not find that it's worse than the random yellow you found on the gound three levels ago.
It also feels like the the ratio of un-legendary Legendaries is much higher in D3 than it was in D2 (though I readily admit this could be hazy memory, it's been a year or two since I put much time into D2 last).
If you go to WoWhead's D3 database and just look at all the Legendaries for each slot one slot at a time, it becomes pretty clear that only maybe one out of every four Legendaries would be something you'd actually ever want to equip.
