Rookie DE Marquis Haynes is fuggin fast

I really expected him to go to a 3-4 team. He's definitely intriguing. I just hope we can figure out how to properly utilize him. At least Rivera has experience in both the 4-3 and the 3-4, though we haven't exactly seen this hybrid defense with elements of both schemes that he talked about upon his hiring. It seems we always get promised one thing, then fed the same old thing. Remember when drafting Shaq was going to allow us to play a little more base D? Yeah...

gotta admit, when we drafted him I couldn't understand what we were thinking.  

Now I understand.

Same.  Was a questionable draft pick in my mind, but the idea of him speed rushing right on by an OT, pushing the QB to step up into Poe/KK? Yes please.

Haynes being undersized has everything to do with his weight not his height.  He's 6'3''.

Yeah

Haynes is 6'3, but he did say post draft he was aiming to come into camp at 240-245

For comparison 

Vic Beasley is 6'3 245

    • I have said if you out even an average QB into the offense we are averaging 25+ points a game. But that will never happen with Bryce under center. 
    • The defense is 28 out of 32 in salary cap allocation for 2025. We have a ton of resources tied up in the offense including the highest paid OL in the league multiple 1st round WR's and multiple recent draft picks across the offense at TE and RB and we have two 1000 yard backs. Bryce and company couldn't get past Tyler Shough and his crew in 2 games. That's all there is to it. You can spin it and put the entire onus on the defense to your heart's desire it doesn't change the fact that this is an OFFENSIVE team now. If you want to argue that we should revert back to a defensive identity as we have been in the past which has brought us success then I will agree with you on that. But as it stands the onus is on the offense because that is where we have invested through the nose. Dave Canales and Bryce Young need to do a hell of a lot better than they have against the rebuilding Saints who without us should only have 2 wins this season.
    • Bryce is not trending up. He is the same QB he has always been. Bottom of the league in most categories.  If Canales thinks he can build a contender with Bryce then he is a bigger idiot then I thought.  Offense next year will have the same issues and be just as inconsistent as it was this year.  We have seen Bryce’a ceiling and it is 175 yards a game and that is not a QB you keep around as your starter. That is barely a backup.
