I started him in fantasy. I thought I had more than one person playing when I checked my point total a few minutes ago.

Yeah should have went for it on 4th and 1.

Which appears to be a solid deal. Check him out in Tampa.

Oh they obviously gave up on him and signed Rodgers, but I'd like to see Zach show he belongs in the league. His appears to be all mental though similar to Darnold.

Honestly the only one I have liked so far is Van Jefferson if he comes cheap. Coach's son so he will buy into the system pretty quick and Brown is familiar with him. Solid decent WR that can play with AT and Mingo (who is developing). Do this and make a push for Higgins this offseason.

Wilson flashed some potential last game. Let’s see if he can build on it.

Isn't he a bit of a locker room issue also or am I thinking of someone else?

Watch Sam look great in San Fran. Baker is looking good in Tampa and Sam looked better than him here. Moral of the story is we are were QBs go to ruin their careers lately....

Yeah it's not really relevant.

Yeah put him in a shitty spot in 3rd and long when the defense knows it's coming.

@TheSpecialJuan returned from his vacation and has already claimed victory. We are all good here!

Yeah that’s so dumb. Let Young throw all over the field and learn what he can/can’t throw in the NFL. It’s not like we are a playoff contender this year. open up that playbook and let him make some mistakes.

I was Ben Johnson when he rejected us (embarrassing) I wanted Steichen. Ben Johnson with Stroud would have been a dream....

https://atozsports.com/carolina/panthers-called-more-deep-throws-for-dalton-frank-reich-assures-no-slight-to-bryce-young/ I'm telling you all who keep asking "Why did Dalton have more deep passes???" That Reich was asked a very similar question. I think yes he probably has a different playbook for a veteran like Dalton vs a rookie like Young. Do I agree with it? Hell no. You have to call up some deep passes to open the playbook not 9 plus WR screens. It's just hard to fault the rookie QB for the play designs/game plan for that week. If I had to guess Reich was playing with "house money" when Dalton was in and wasn't as concerned about "protecting the rookie," but that's not really doing Young and favors as far as developing him goes. "I probably called a few more," Reich admitted. "And there were one or two things that Andy specifically asked for, which I don’t wanna go into detail on. But there were a couple of things that he specifically asked for.”

It's a double edged sword because you also need the OL to block in order for a deep route to even develop. I agree 100% though we have to test the defense and get the out of the box.

It’s because Dalton literally told Frank to call more deep passes. Reich has even admitted this. The 10 plus year vet had to tell him hey coach let’s try a couple deep shots.

It’s like yeah he connected with like 2-3 deep passes out of 58. Like you stated his average was on par with much more attempts. Our offense did score a lot better though.

I'm legit trying to think of his deep throws. Week 1 he had two, one was an overthrow (100% on him) and 2 was TMJ quitting on his route (not really his fault, but inconclusive). I know last week he had one and he was hit as he threw it. So yeah he hasn't been accurate on those 3 passes, 1 due to getting hit (bad OL), 1 on his WR not finishing his route, and 3 on him overthrowing it. I can't think of many more if any deep attempts.

You also said if Young’s OL holds over Stroud’s he would be racing Bijan for OROTY. So you have not have been too down on Young.

A lot of heads will continue to be in the sand and this data is going to fall on stubborn deaf ears. I appreciate all the data you have compiled here and it really helps tell the whole story.

Yeah I would prefer more than a 1st and VJ in return. We do need to flip Burns and get a first plus some back though.

He will help. 2 solid WRs in AT and VJ plus Mingo developing is much better than what we have. I'm thinking it might be a mid/late conditional pick for VJ if we do that. Maybe a 4th/5th that can become a 3rd/4th based on performance?

Jefferson could be had for pretty cheap I'd imagine especially with Kupp coming back and their rookie playing go great. He is definitely not a WR1, but he is a capable WR that can help take some pressure off AT. Roll with VJ, AT, and Mingo this year while making a push for Higgins in the offseason would work for me.

Yeah that was the least important in the list of reasons I listed.
