A lot of people forget he missed the entire offseason program. And still came in as a 4th round rookie and played lights out for the most part. I expect him to take huge steps forward after having this full offseason to work on his weaknesses and do a whole lotta learning. He showed more promise last year than I remember DeCoud showing during his Pro Bowl year in Atlanta. He should absolutely be locked in as the starter at FS for now (though they shouldn't let him know that so he has the mindset he's still gotta fight for his job). Yeah he had some head-scratchers against Seattle (both games), but that should be corrected with a full offseason to work.

Boston did very well for a rookie.

Is going to be fun to watch him.develop, with an offseason to workout, a season of experience in the system, i expect to see him to make strides.

Coleman certainly is competition, but lets not just hand the statting position off before they compete for it.

It is Boston's to lose.

Depends on what your or his definition of "his to lose" is.

I think he is the front runner because if last season . However, often when a player thinks us is his to lose, they don't think they really have to compete and earn the job...just not screw up and lose it.

Boston played well for a 4th round rookie and solid for a starter. But, his play was nowhere near the level that should entrench him as the starter.

Also, he got used by RW during the season and in the playoffs.

This is what I saw as well. Granted he was a rookie and has a lot to learn but I wouldn't be surprised if Coleman beats him out for the starting spot. I hope we draft one of the safeties from Louisville or someone that can replace Harper.

I'm not as high on Boston as a lot of people are, but given the circumstances he was in last year with not having a preseason due to hernia surgery, missing the first half of the season, then getting thrown into the starting lineup - I think he did decent enough.

 

Will he improve on it? That is yet to be seen. I'm not holding my breath but I'm not counting him out either.

sounds like we agree then.

I jever said he was untouchable. I wouldn't claim that for any player really, cause you never know what new talent the team will aquire, that could end up unseating a starter.

I did not think you thought that way.

My point was more that I hope Bodton does not think that way. He needs to come to camp hubgry and ready to earn the job.

      Would you draft a pass rusher or draft one?

      By strato · Posted

      I am not sure it should be a ‘sell out to go to the SB’ season. And hope they don’t.  At the same time I was thinking you absolutely must find out if you want to pay for Bryce or not. That means putting it on him. No protecting and trying to hide weaknesses with the run game and a super conservative calls.  So I wish they would do it and find out, win or lose, 2026. No more developing. Time to do it. Let’s see once and for all.

      Your Feelings on Bryce Through 3 Seasons? (POLL)

      By Montsta · Posted

      My biggest fear with Bryce Young is that he will always do just enough to stick around. He shows flashes and then drops a turd so the hopium is always there. Like his career highlight reel if you cut it up to some hype music and did a YouTube video would actually be quite good. His great plays really, really look good. But after that video you look at his yearly averages for completion percentage, yardage, touchdowns, and virtually every other metric and it is meh as fug. Like you know Bryce is gonna be 13/23 for 157 yards a touchdown and probably a pick.  I will 100% give him his flowers for his athleticism and ability to scramble outside the pocket. I haven’t seen the mythical “super processing ability” he was touted for per se, but he has shown flashes of absolutely elite awareness when it comes to scrambling. The little basketball move he does to shake defensive linemen has almost become a signature move. It’s hard to explain but you know it when you see it he stops on a dime and pivots like he is gonna hit a step back jumper and it has gotten him out of a lot of trouble.  I sincerely, truly, as a vocal Bryce HATER, hope that since we are obviously running with him next year the coaching staff actually tailors plays around his strengths. He needs to be in a pure spread IMO. His size is much less of a hindrance when he can play QB in open space. I feel like most of his highlight reel is from scrambles and play action/bootlegs.
