So Brown can cough up the ball and miss WRs?

At this point you go with Dalton or prepare to go 0-17. The kid needs time. If the staff wants OJT for Bryce and are willing to suffer beat down after beat down, then that's fine. Hopefully Bryce is strong enough mentally to endure loss after loss. It's something he's never experienced.

He don't have the arm to throw more than 15 yards down the filed in the NFL. These dudes aren't Vanderbilt DBs.

But we HAD TO go QB this year at all costs, right?

Really? Rattle off the list.

Seriously, should have stated Dalton and eased Bryce in. Right now, bro is rattled. Never start a rookie QB.

Well, now we can't even get into FG range, smh.

Pineiro is my fantasy kicker, so.............

Strip-sack on every hit. And I was worried about him staying healthy. Survival mechanism; drop the ball and the defenders won't pile on top of you.

Take a shot every time this happens...uh, crap, I might run out of liquor!

So far the defensive struggle I was thinking about.

double post.

Bryce missed a wide open target on the scramble left. He tried to hit the inside guy, but the outside guy was wide open.

Pick 6 on the first play. Must have been thinking of that rub down after the game.

He would have to sustain a bad injury or have an off the field issue to drop like that. Even if his stats are just mediocre this season, he still won't fall out of the first round.

Last draft. Yup, I was. A year or two doesn't make it an annual exercise though. That would be TE, truth be told, which dates back to 2018 for me and until Ickey, since 2013 for an OT. THAT is an annual exercise. Again, there's not a ton of underclassmen in this draft as opposed to last year and the few that are the top of the board absolutely will declare. Williams and Maye are not going back to school. Ewers, maybe, but then you have a slew of Seniors (red shirts, true, 5th year) and graduate students. There is little reason for them to return even if they are eligible for one more season.

^^^This. Noting against Bryce and I hope he ends up being our guy for the next 10 years, but man I wish we held our water for one more year, especially if he doesn't pan out.

Never liked any of those dudes as prospects, personally.

Wilis and Corral, lol? Howell has yet to be seen over an entire season, but has been okay so far with a small sample size. Question, have you even looked at next year's QB class. While being sarcastic, you are right, it really is loaded.

If that's the consensus between his camp and the Panthers, a mid-season trade makes sense. Better to get something rather than nothing. We may not get the haul that the Rams were offering us, but if we can at least recoup one first rounder, preferably next year's when we lack one, that's nothing to sneeze at.

Among the talking heads, sure it happens every year. I've been in this boat for only two seasons prior. I was willing to give Teddy a shot was lukewarm about Darnold. When we brought in Sam is when I started sniffing around drafting a QB.

I don't think people realize how talented and deep this next QB class is. Most of the guys after the top two or three have no-to-little eligibility remaining, so the volume of QBs returning next year will be way less than this year. That's what gutted the QB class this year after the top guys, nearly the rest of the guys after the first round prospects returned to school. So many of these guys have tons of starts under their belts and there may a few 'Brock Purdy's' in the mid-to-late rounds. Not to mention the obvious that the top of the class isn't too shabby either.

Damn...but you ain't lying.

Sorry, but he's a one-year rental. If dude is at least 80%, he should be on the field. Otherwise he's just collecting paychecks until his ouchy is 100% better. With dude's injury history, he may not be 100% healthy all season.

Yep and next draft was the "this year" for me. I just hope with the patchwork offensive supporting cast, there's enough for Young to work with and not stymie his development. Right now our WRs are getting about as much separation as Siamese twins.
