Glad he is getting shine..can tell he is a good guy, but goodness this interview wasn't the most entertaining or informative lol. 

 

Resembles his temperament on the field definitely. 

he is the polar opposite of Josh Norman personality wise.  That last little dig at KK was funny though.

The guy does not get enough credit for going up against some of the best receivers and QBs in the league in the NFCS. Sure INTS are the big measuring stick, but the whole story should include passes defensed and how good coverage keeps QBs from throwing against him. He's a big, physical DB, but he's a mighty smart one, too, and very much in the Chris Gamble mould. 

And Chris Gamble is the most underrated DB of all time.

He is. It’s a bit sad to hear how he impressed before the draft with his press on Wilks and how much he thinks of his ability there and then realize how many times we saw our CBs line up behind the first down marker.

Absolutely agreed. As good as he's been for us, we have to also realize that more often than not we've had him playing to his weaknesses and not to his strengths. I'd love to see us do more press and bail style coverage with him, similar to what Seattle does (or at least did during their "Legion of Boom" era).

Glad to see him getting some love. I feel like he's badly underrated by most fans and national media types because he doesn't get INTs.

Maybe he will change his style this season,big contracts need INTs.

His "style" is heavily based off of play calling and coaching. If we're calling for him to play 10 yards off then that's what it is. That's not his call. He's never going to develop Josh Norman or Richard Sherman type ball skills and hands. That's just not what he does. He gets a lot of pass breakups because he's a good cover guy, but virtually all of his INTs have been utter gifts. Like the old saying goes, there's a reason why he plays defense.

    • Would be happy with Lomu or Iheanachor at 19. Fano is intriguing but I don't think he makes it.
    • II see it this way: We have to look at long-term needs and current depth.  We have filled some key spots with players on one-year contracts.  I firmly believe that they intend to pay Bryce some big bucks next year.  That means you cannot hope that your rookies in 2027 can fill the spots vacated by the veterans you could not afford to re-sign.   We need to consider the cap and the fact that the need to start a rookie is not viewed as a positive by coaches and general managers, but they value first contracts--so it is a delicate balance. I think they have to look at the cap by position--"Can we afford a $50m QB and a $100m OL?  That is half the cap, before you pay your WRs and RBs and TEs.  They need to start getting younger on the OL as well.   I am not suggesting that we draft OT in round 1, but we could and I would get it.  RT on a 1-year deal, they may have intel about Ickey (who was not the best LT, to be honest) and 32-year old Moton is on a bad wheel.   Now if you go by Morgan's history, you can almost tell what position we are going to address with the first pick by noting the positions he has not focused on in free agency.  DT, considering the lack of performance by those not named Derrick Brown and the loss of Robinson, is screaming to be addressed with a top player.  Wharton is not an early down DT (DE if you want to get technical) and our LBs need to be clean--they were not in 2025.  Look for a DT early. I also think we will address ILB (pass covering Will) on day 2.  The other day 2 pick will be an OT, in my view. Do not rule out CB.  We are thin there too, and Jackson is in his final year.  I am not sure that we love Smith-Wade.  Some crackhead on here talked about moving him to S----stay tuned.   Hopefully, a team wanting Ty Simpson will move up and offer us a pick or two to move back. DT WILB OT OC QB  (you heard it here 337th--but this pick could come sooner than you think.      
    • Bryce had some bad games, but he had some good ones as well (and this is coming from a Bryce skeptic). I think it's a little simplistic to put all the offensive woes on Bryce, you also should be looking at O-line play, receiver play, RB and TE play, and also coaching. There's no way when I look at the offense in it's totality am I ready to say that a so-so to bad offense was all on Bryce, and, I also can't say that we don't need to upgrade any position on offense, save Tetairoa McMillan (who also wasn't perfect) and maybe the starting guards and T-mo.
