  1. He played under Rhule, yes. Not sure if he was recruited by him.
  2. Also fall into the trap of just wanting to surround Young with all the talent in the world. Disappointed we took Lee Hunter instead of ANOTHER skill guy. Y'know, on our DLine that was crying out for an injection of talent.
  3. As I've said repeatedly, it's baffling how Morgan (Tillis and Canales) is handling the QB room. He's upgraded every other position group on the team in 2 years - and we desperately needed to bolster that front 7 this offseason - but little Brycey is untouchable for some reason. They don't even bring in competition for him. It's utterly maddening.
  4. God you read these articles and just realise it's a self fulfilling prophecy. None of these scouts and analysts want to admit they were duped by Bryce Young coming out of College, so they run down every other aspect to prop him up. He had 50 yards against another NFL team. 50. 12 games throwing for less than 200 yards last season. Enough of this utter bullshit. He's a replacement level player - call it how it fuging is.
  5. He calls downfield plays, Young just doesn't take them unless they're High School wide open.
  6. Exactly. Carson Beck was taken in the 3rd round and loads of people were screaming that he was overdrafted. He's a damn sight more physically talented than Bryce Young - and has a similar College resume.
  7. Basically this. He would have to take a prodigious leap - and even then I wouldn't trust him to follow it up the year after.
  8. To be fair they've both made over $100m in their careers (Murray - $170m, Tua - $124m) so they're extreme cases. I suspect neither wanted to come here with absolutely no chance to unseat Young.
  9. We've vastly improved 2 of the front 7 with Phillips and Lloyd. We're hopeful that Hunter makes it 3 of the front 7. You've also got the natural improvement of Scourton, Princeley and Jackson who are all entering their second year in the league. It's still short of where it needs to be, but progress is being made.
  10. How many of those teams are better than the Rams and the Packers? I think we're more talented this year than we were last year. I'm not saying we're going to sweep all that comes before us, but I think a 6-11 projection underestimates the roster rebuild job that's going on here.
  11. They have end-of-season physicals and they're, essentially, owned by the team. Sure this could be an issue they picked up in January and he refused the surgery then, but the small print of his contract would also oblige the team not to pay him. I don't think we're stupid enough to let him holistically heal a neck injury, so this is almost certainly a new one.
  12. Let's see if they'll trade us Stroud for Young straight up.
  13. We're more athletic on the OLine now, so I think you'll more outside zone.
  14. Well, a long career at least.
  15. First impression - I'm better at basketball than all these guys, and I've barely played the sport. Aiiiiiirball!
  16. I assume that's a rented house (for Draft weekend) and some of those other guys are teammates? Lot of expensive cars if he owns them all!
  17. I much prefer Freeling to Proctor. Dude has lead feet.
  18. Why has he had 4 years to prove he's 'good enough'? Why are you setting up the strawman that there's only a handful of elite QBs in the NFL?
  19. I've seen him try to outrun an NFL DE. It's like watching a lion take down a gazelle - it's brutal.
  20. What other options does he has? He doesn't have a long list of suitors. The other NFC South GMs are dying for us to sign him to a big extension.
