Don't know.  He's not starting.  

Ugh. I don’t like that. I hope they got/get serious reps in practice. I get the why bother playing them in meaningless games and risk injury sentiment. But
 

A) They are rookies and need the reps. 
B) It’s a clear fact without proper reps at game speed players are WAY WAY more sustainable to injury during the beginning of the season. Especially old boys like Paradis.

Yeah.  If you don't mind, please take it to the other three threads.  Lots of opinions shared on this.
Horn didn't dress, so he's not playing.

It’s fair to assume that the league is beginning to realize that preseason isn’t as valuable as once perceived. 
 

Last year’s lack of preseason really changed the mindsets of franchises

Preseason is for evaluation. And letting fans get to know the new guys.

I think this is more of “can tremble show out and take Ian’s job” rather than “let’s put Ian in to secure his job”

I can see that I suppose as he isn't a rook. Yet T Marshall and B Christensen but no J Horn? Agree that preseason is becoming less and less neccessary for risk but if our first rounder can't even see some action why even put either of the first 3 picks out there? We got the Taints week 2 these fellas are going to get tested early.

I'm not sure what's so confusing about the situation. We've seen the depth chart. We've seen the starting lineup for today.

He said we wouldn't see starters because they got their reps on Thurs and Friday and cuts are coming early week.

That's what we are seeing happen.

      I get it's subjective and I said "PFF rated him as" one of the top deep ball passers during that time, which is an accurate statement.  They are still a group of professionals that look at film and data in order to make their judgements/ratings.  These people whose data has been incorporated into a lot of teams' staffs view Bryce's deep throws as some of the best in the league during that stretch.  That tells me that he can probably throw a deep pass vs the Huddle's version of he is small and didn't do it his rookie year so he must not be able to.  That and literally seeing him do it just makes me feel he is more than capable of doing so.   Do you think PFF is skewing their opinion to prop up a QB in a bottom tier franchise?  It's just another group's opinion and I feel is pretty respected around the league currently.  It's not the gospel truth or anything.

      I still remember how happy I was that gettlegut was not the GM once he picked Jones, that was a firing pick and well..... If not for the raiders drafting Clelin Ferrell, it was the biggest draft day mistake in the last 20 some years.

      He had 251 passing yards. 3 passing touchdowns and 2 rushing touchdowns. All in all a very impressive game. Problem is I do not envision his rushing ability translating like that over the course of the upcoming season. Yeah it will be something to account for from time to time but one it's not sustainable and two you don't want to put his durability to the ultimate test against a motivated defender willing to take a penalty and a fine. And plus with our backfield. Two 1k yard rushers. That's what they're here for. Then we have a much improved WR room. That means Bryce has to elevate those passing numbers substantially. The fact of the matter is regardless of circumstances it did take him 23 games to surpass Kyle Allen's single season passing yardage from 13 games in 2020. And that is not a high bar by any means. Whatever QB tier Bryce ends up in from here amongst his peers this upcoming season when it's all said and done it will be with his arm.
