SOJA

It's because we have become so reactionary. Every week a new team is the worst team in the league or someone else is falling apart and next week they are superbowl contenders. They don't wait for rookies to develop because they want the immediate Russel Wilson seahawks success and starting the timeline of a championship team as early as possible due to the value of rookie QB contracts

The internet at large has lost the ability to have any nuance. It's ok to evaluate Bryce and come away with the conclusion that while he looks much better than weeks 1 to 2, he still hasn't proven he's a franchise QB. Both can be true statements. My thing is at this point, just play him, we either find out we have something or we don't. It's not like were missing out on a top flight QB this draft anyway. Now come 2026 it will be decision time on if he's the future or not

You can question a lot of things about Bryce but from literally everything I've ever heard or read the guy works very hard behind the scenes. I mean his preparation for games at Alabama was so impressive that apparently Fitterer and co had to cut him off when he got to like Wednesday or something. He does seem like a genuinely nice person so it's easy to root for him because god can you imagine how reviled he would be if he was Jimmy Clausen

I really like Chuba, this is a fair deal for both sides and I think it's important as an organization to send a message that we retain our home grown talented players who do the right things. FURTHER and what I haven't seen yet is: A few years ago we decided not to trade Burns and instead of signing him RIGHT THEN we waited and ultimately took a big loss on the compensation. We clearly learned from that. If you aren't going to trade someone then re-sign them. That is good business in my mind.

I'm actually excited to see what Dan can do with all our picks in this upcoming draft. Hoping that while the top flight talent doesn't look great it is a deep draft where we can find quality starters and backups

I'm starting to like what I'm seeing from the penn state DE, also speaks to my point of trading down to acquire a future first if someone is dumb enough

agreed defense has to be focus of the upcoming draft

well thank god XL was technically a first round pick!

Who says you can't have a good jump scare after halloween ends? But in all seriousness I can't believe we got a fourth for him

Ickey at LT and Brady as Center / Swing position player is more valuable to our team IMO

That's fair but signing a veteran like Justin Fields to a one year deal and drafting defense with our first is always an option two. I personally don't think these QBs this year are top 10 worthy selections

them not targetting Jaycee once should earn him a 90 lol

Saints subreddit basically views Bryce as a hero lmao

Oh don't get me wrong I don't think Bryce is the longterm answer by any means. But people want us to draft Cam ward 1 overall. I'd much rather build the team up this offseason

well yea if they get something worthwhile for him than yes I'd pull the trigger but I can't see a team offering something high for him right now. Russini said on her pod we'd likely get more for him in the offseason anyway

But it is funny to me that Chicago fans are finally realizing that Moore is closer to a WR 1/2 than a true blue number one WR I'm talking like AJ brown, JJ, Hill, Chase type WR. He isn't in that group. He probably isn't even in the group after that. he's likely the 15 best WR in the league or so (which is good!) but Chicago fans acted like they got prime Jerry Rice from us

Honestly though a WR trio of DJ Moore, Coker and XL would be lethal. That being said he just signed a contract extension in Chicago. He would have to be traded and I highly doubt there will be a reunion in Carolina

The bottom line is bryce looks vastly better than weeks 1 and 2 and there is no reason to not play him moving forward. There is no downside. If he starts sucking again we are right back where we are right now. But if he can continue to improve (even if he will never be a top 10 QB) we can build the team around him and bide our time till the right QB becomes available.

At this point every win feels like winning a playoff game so I don't blame people for being excited

I got banned from that subreddit a long time ago for saying that Marty Hurney was stupid for giving out two giant runningback contracts so glad to see they are still delusional

I'm not going to tolerate Chuba slander on here. Guy has done nothing but work his ass of since getting here. When he first started he was a timid runner who always went down on first contact. Yesterday he had a game winning touchdown run on a cutback where he broke multiple tackles

The combination of Matt Rhule, Scott Fitterer and David Tepper might be the worst in the history of the league or at least in the convo

This is better than our last three drafts combined under Tepper. Look it up if you don't believe me

HUH? Joe Burrow was a four start recruit who went to Ohio st. You're reaching here

you could stop your draft after pick 43 and that would be a HOF draft
