Looking at Joe Brady's Offense+New Weapons

Well, he has two vet WRs in front of him.  So there is that.   CMC will eat in the psd game a lot with Sam. 

But the other side the coin is what Joe Brady does on offense.  And that isn’t running an O with 2 WRs on the field all game. 

Look at last years draft.  2nd round WRs had no trouble getting up to speed with no preseason or offseason.   

I think the 300- 500 yard range is what he will do as a rookie.  A situational roleplayer as a rookie. 

He has 3 vets ahead of him, plus cmac and Arnold.  I would say 500 yards would be the absolute upper echelon ceiling for him this year.  I would temper that saying 300ish and a few td's.

Don't get me wrong, I love the signing but wouldn't consider David Moore a locked-in 3rd option.  And Brady is more familiar with Marshall and how to use him.  And don't forget we've been fooled before with a younger vet from Seattle  *cough DJ Hackett

And I am not shitting on the kid just saying he was probably selected as a long term option/value rather than being an immediate contributor this season.

You are WAY underrating this player's talents.  With his routes and hands, at 6'4", and a nose for the EZ, I think he catches more balls, for more yds, and more TDs, than Robbie.

He is a HUGE draft pickup.

(and to @Mr. Scotand his sharp comment about rub routes, that's a natural component of trips formations, isn't it?  With Marshall's abilities from the slot, he'll be a big factor there, too.)

I know it's a big part of what the Saints have been doing since Payton got there.

As much as anything, it's just nice to see something different than those old Shula route combos that too frequently had two players running to the same spot.

What are your projections for the kid?

    • Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.
    • What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.
