found this interesting databite off billy's twitter. 

focusing more on pressure stat over subjective grade. for a rookie, not allowing a single pressure on his debut is amazing.

at the minimum definitely an upgrade over Daryl at LT.

EDIT: I'm all for bashing PFF but their pressure assessment is largely reasonable. In this instance, they acknowledged the schematic aspect of Greg Little's job, which was to flush Mercilus outside while Allen's role should've been to step up and throw in the pocket.

Allen did not step up. In fact, he hardly showed much pocket presence.

Can't hardly blame the o-line, and when Little got "beat," such should've been prevented by Allen feeling that pressure and stepping up to throw.

While I too am skeptical of the zero pressures stat, his performance passed the eyeball test.  For a rookie LT, going against THAT defense, this was a very encouraging start.  No, he didn't look great in preseason, but if he continues to make progress, we may just have found a LT.  That is no small thing.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
