Saw this on BBR and looks like a great topic.

I don't any of us can argue that the boy has talent.   He can really play the position.

 

What his problem is, he wants to play rogue.  He doesn't want to play within the scheme and each piece has to do their part.  He didn't seem to get it.  

 

Hopefully he has matured and has got it.    I would hate for us to lose his talent.  Especially since we are thin at DB.  

 

Good Luck Josh.

 

Thoughts?

It looks, to many, if not all, that he plays on his own.  Like he thinks he is above the system.  It may simply be that he just doesn't understand or have the ability to learn at this level.  It's not a terrible thing, not everyone was meant to be an NFL player.  It may just be too much for him.  I hope he can get it down because his athleticism could be a huge advantage to us on the back end.

He is getting up there in age to be learning like a rookie.  He was drafted age 24 or so--27 and still does not get it?  Not a good sign.

 

Maybe, but Bene Benwickere (Spelled right?) could surprise and could easily win the nickel job.  Cason, White. Godfrey-we might not need Norman and his renegade stupidity. ( I think he was the one who gave up the TD late vs Buffalo. )

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Yeah they were bad QBs - but QB's that stayed on their teams for several years.  BY is better than all of those.

      This is the right move even if you think Bryce isn't the future. Everything except signing him to a long term deal until proven otherwise. There's a decent chance we have a shot to draft a QB next year that we like.

      If we're still bad enough that Canales gets fired, especially if it's during the season, there is no way we could ever attract any HC worthy of the job if we told them they had to keep Bryce their first year. That would be 2 coaches he's gotten fired and 4 years of not performing up to par. I still say replace both of them next offseason.  I like Canales the man and I think he's done an absolutely outstanding job at fixing our locker room issues, as it was really bad before he showed up.  But I just don't see it from him with his in game decision making, I think he's held us back just as much as Bryce has, just in different ways. Canales was our Dan Campbell, the coach you hire to turn the franchises culture around for the HC after them to inherit and take to the next level.   The difference was he had some elite coordinators early on and really let him focus on his "leader of men" role as opposed to the X's and O's that Canales does himself and it's turned out well for him.
