90 yards in 7 games

The fugs going on with this kid? I'm not expecting him to light up the world but geez, that's awful for a guy we traded up for. Philly Brown did better as an UDFA

They need to use him more, thats the only way he going to get better and gain confidence.

He's 21 years old and is adjusting to the pro game.  On the Huddle Podcast he mentioned he was more of a basketball player his whole life.  He is raw but has all the tools to be a good NFL receiver.  He needs time to adjust both mentally and physically.  

 

If he's at 90 yards through 7 games next year then it might be time to worry a little bit.

I am not gonna lie,  he is looking like a reach.  That being said,  he still may develop into an able complimentary receiver.  But at his draft position,  a complimentary receiver probably means you're not getting what you paid for. 

The jury is still out at the end of the day.

I think we've been spoiled in the G man era so everyone thinks that all 1st and 2nd round picks are supposed to perform right away when in reality that's not always the case. Every person is different the dude is 21 years old and never played with a good/decent qb before. He was also never a full time wide receiver in college. It's obvious he's going to need another season or two to grow and there is nothing wrong with that as long as he works hard to improve his game

This game is so fast. It's so hard to tell from tv. Add in a quarterback that throws lasers to where he's going to be not where he's at. This isn't a game of instant gratification, it can be if you want to be a flash in the pan but I prefer continued long lasting success. A few of you were calling Ealy a bust. Calm yourself and see what falls into place

I thought all high draft picks had to produce right away? Remember back when the old saying is that receivers take 2-3 years to make any sort of impact? Then last year happened and people went freaking crazy

      Boy the flyers look good early. Lots of bad plays and slow start by our team. Hope that changes before the score changes.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes into account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as another treading water year (at QB). I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room. Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked. That’s how I look at it.
