Is overrated as hell. Makes a bunch of good plays and then a bunch of bad plays. He doesn’t make enough great plays. Plays that can change the entire game.  Anyone that is wanting to give him 14 plus mil a year is stupid. If we hire Greg Roman as HC, Roman will replace Bradberry with Jimmy Smith.

Bradberry's completion against percentage was 44% in 2018; it is 64% in 2019, fwiw.  We have one of the strongest pass rushes in the NFL---so there is reason for concern. 

I hate agreeing with Forty-eight because he is impulsive, emotional, and rarely uses any data to support his wild accusations, but if you want to use 2019 as a barometer (all 14 games), he has been slightly below average, but he has 3 picks.

I don't think Bradberry is great, but I think he's solid. He also has increased value for us because he just so happens to be the type of CB who matches up favorably with the elite #1 WRs of our division rivals. He's always going to have issues against speedy twitchy WRs. That's why we need Jackson to pull his head out of his ass. He has to be able to handle those guys or we have to find someone who can.

And he suck at it

Mind boggling.  Dude has locked down almost every star receiver in the league.  Has he been beaten?  Uh yeah, but have you seen the WR just in our division?  His weakest matchups are in practice every week.  Jones/Ridley, Thomas/Ginn, Evans/Godwin.  Thats 6 games every year.  

"Hey James, how about you not suck and goose egg Julio?  Bum!"  Thats what you sound like.

I think it's about the same as the Huddle's overall measure of this mythical "#1 WR". Basically, you have to be a Canton-bound all-time great to qualify.

Still not good enough (sarcasm). There are very few true shut down corners in the NFL. It's gotten so hard to defend receivers with the rule changes to offense and now with replay for PI its damn near impossible to be shut down. That's why safety has become so important. Those guys have to be able to help and we just don't have those guys. When you make it so your CBs know they aren't going to get help in time, you can expect them to make mistakes trying to gain a minute advantage. Bradbery isn't all world, but he's not all suck either and we've seen he can be better than most.

This organization has never given a single fug about the safety position. The next safety we draft in the 1st round will be the first in the history of the organization.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion)

      Barnwell is espn’s stalking horse. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46942577/2026-nfl-offseason-quarterback-trades-cuts-retirements-murray-tagovailoa-fields Evaluation time might be up The end of Year 3 is a critical time for first-round picks at quarterback, as their organizations will need to decide whether they want to guarantee their fifth-year options before the start of the following season. The class of 2023 has two obvious choices, as the Texans are going to pick up C.J. Stroud's option, while the Colts will decline that same opportunity for Anthony Richardson Sr. The third might still be up in the air. Bryce Young, Carolina Panthers 2026 cash: $5.9 million (all guaranteed) Future guarantees: None (potential fifth-year option for 2027) Savings if traded before June 1: $5.9 million in cap and cash Savings if cut before mid-March: None Young's promising end to 2024 hasn't led to a step forward in 2025. Young's sack rate is down, and his success rate as a passer is up, which are both positives. But his interception rate has risen for the second consecutive season. The 2023 No. 1 pick is averaging just 5.6 yards per attempt, the worst mark in the league for any full-season starter. Offensive line injuries haven't helped, but Young has only sevendeep completions all season, forcing the Panthers to either rely on big runs by Rico Dowdle or dink-and-dunk down the field with their passing attack. Young has the fourth-worst off-target rate in the NFL on passes that aren't deep attempts, though, making it difficult for Carolina to sustain drives with steady completions. After the season, the Panthers will need to decide whether they want to pick up Young's roughly $25.6 million fifth-year option for 2027, which will become fully guaranteed in the process. While that's not an exorbitant sum for a quarterback, I'm not sure Young's play would support that choice. If Carolina does decide to pick up the option, he will have a meaningful role on the 2026 roster, either as the unquestioned starter or at least as the favorite to win the job. If Carolina declines the option, Young's future probably will be elsewhere. He might be given a fourth year to prove himself and play well enough to earn an extension, as Daniel Jones did after the Giants declined his fifth-year option in New York, but the coach and general manager who paid so much to acquire Young in the first place aren't in the building anymore. The Panthers could trade Young to another team, bring in a new starting QB and move Young into a backup role, or (most likely) acquire someone to compete with Young in training camp next summer.
