Bear Hands

Who picked Bryce? The correct answer is many NFL defenders

I heard the air in the Carolinas is really heavy today. Obvi wasn't Bryce's fault, a gust came in hard on that run

Fumbles gripping the football by himself.

4.11 YPA

4.35 YPA today. Just FML

Here go, can we do anything? DAL gifted us a shot here

ugh

Sure is as well.

If anyone wants some minor relief, Levis is a complete deer in the headlights today. Looks awful. His first game where he just launches PA bombs was obviously not a proper sample size. Playing full games, needing to create drives, he's got some issues.

Not a single exciting skill position player. Chinn is apparently not a dog anymore. Burns can gtfo with his empty, hollow Spiderman celebrations. He's getting worked, yet again. Horn can't find the field. And there's not a soul on offense. Derrick Brown and Luvu are the only redeeming qualities with this team. Everyone else can GTFO.

This important reset, all hands on deck, "Reich taking back control" mode they went into has produced: 108 TOTAL YARDS, 0 POINTS

This is the most uninspiring football team ever. Also -- Burns blows today. Had one good awareness play but he's getting worked.

If that ends up being Caleb’s last college game, he’ll still go top-5 overall if he declares, but that caps off such a disappointing season for the guy. He’s got damn good skills but man, what a dud this year was for that whole program. His attitude blows too, very entitled guy who can easily get framed as a “villain”

Wow, that about does it for TMJ's career here. What a dissapointment given the talent at WR in that draft. Oh wee mane

I heard we went ahead and painted a star at midfield

A low key thrashing today was what Cam Ward did to Colorado. Wash St had a few disappointing losses this year but Ward has really improved as a passer.

Odunze is going to be a star NFL WR. He's just got it.

I like the EDGE rushers at UCLA. They’re reaking havoc on Caleb

Yeah that's fair. I think it's easy to put him up there. It's crazy to think about how things have changed league wise. The NFCC year, he was like 14 TDs, 9 INTs, 56% completion. He played through the modernization of the modern passing game all the way until Cam's rookie year. Crazy to look back at those QBs stats https://www.nfl.com/stats/player-stats/category/passing/1996/REG/all/passingtouchdowns/DESC

Look up morel-lavallee lesion..it's nasty

For their actual play while here (not in the context of their careers): 1. Cam 2. Jake 3. Steve 4. Kyle Allen 5. Teddy B 6. Matt Moore Kerry Collins -- had an okay career elsewhere, but sucked here, and had a bunch of issues. He's like 7 or 8 for me. In the Darnold ranks. Kyle Allen fizzled out career wise, but he played really well with CMC. I think he showed more potential than Moore when here, and took more risks on the field than Teddy. Something crazy in looking at stats -- Bryce has already passed Jimmy Clausen on our all time passing yards list, so I guess he's got that going for him (insert caddyshack meme) Not a good list haha

That Giants home opener though...thought we had our long overdue Jake successor.

Yeah I agree here a lot. Trading up to take a guy at the end of your Day-2 tier list, with positional tunnel vision, is not how you want to do it. You shouldn't mortgage picks to move up for the last guy remaining in your EDGE grouping tier. You trade up, "with conviction" (to steal their terminology), for the guy you really want. Honestly, they should have just pounced on Tuli at 39 if they wanted an all-around EDGE to play day 1. Then, what you do, is trade up/or stay put at 93 for an offensive skill position player. Josh Downs, Achane, Michael Wilson, Tyjae Spears, the talent was there. Then, in keeping our second 4th rounder, could have still gotten great value around there with guys like Charlie Jones, Adebawore, Jay Ward, Tyler Scott, Abanikanda around that range. What's done is done, but that draft strategy after we took Bryce left a sour taste in my mouth. Much like the year prior with Brandon Smith and Matt Corral.

Not to mention, Rhule was on a shorter leash and rumors last year were that Fitt did gain leverage in roster construction. Impossible to know how true it was though. But with that being said, we proceeded to spend 5 picks on 3 guys no longer on the team in the 2022 draft. Yikes. And that’s a part of how you end up the worst team in the league.

Sure. What you said is fine, but seems like an independent point from what I'm saying.
