I really liked this kid when he came out of Kent State. Seems like a guy we could maybe revive, and turn into a decent option. Ran a 4.26 40 yard dash and at the very least could potentially give us a fast receiving threat out of the backfield.

I like how when anyone makes a thread like this, everyone flocks in to trash the guy seemingly forgetting that our WR corps consists of no one who would be higher than #4 on the depth chart on most other NFL teams.  No one is suggesting signing a guy like this to big guaranteed money, but it doesn't cost anything more than the cost of a plane ticket and a hotel room to bring a guy in for a workout and given the state or our WR corps, why not?  You say this guy sucks, well so does virtually everyone currently suiting up at WR for us.  If he sucks slightly less than the worst WR on our roster then we have a chance to upgrade our roster.

How about training camp next summer? Can he return punts and kickoffs?

Nope. That's why he was cut. He's fast as hell but all he did was run sideways and out of bounds really fast. He doesn't play WR and he's too small to play RB. He might be useful for a few gadget plays here and there but since he adds no value as a returner or special teamer he would be a wasted spot on the active roster to use once or twice a game.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.

      "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
