I'm done pretending. That kid is a dud and IDGAF about feelings at this point.

Big picrure is whatever really. It's all about getting a house cleaning now. Picket looks capable of doing that for us.

I don't know he is gonna be a dud but his ceiling seems so obviously lower than is necessary to be taking in the top 15

At this point, if he’s the pick, then i’ll be excited to see his development and hope for the best. I’m not gonna go around knocking this possibility. 

I remember a couple years ago there were rumors of us being interested in Justin Herbert and so many in here were trashing him and the possibility of us taking him. 

 

We all wish we had him right about now lol.

If Teddy wasn't the answer I really don't see how Pickett is besides being recruited by Rhule at Temple. They basically have the same ceiling, with Teddy actually showing he can reach that ceiling in the NFL. Pickett could max out at like a Will Grier level in my opinion. At the best If you took Burrow and Grier and met in the middle which is basically a good backup

Yeah, I am not seeing Joe Burrow intangibles. Which, to be clear, I was completely not impressed by Burrow. So maybe my skepticism is good news.

And Burrow got it done in 2 seasons with better yards per attempt. Pickett had 4 starting years and was pretty good in his 5th senior year after finding out he was gonna go in the 5th round if he declared for last years draft. I don't really understand why people make the Burrow comparison

She is on this board saying willis.  She was saying Jones this time last year so I wouldnt take too much stock in her "sources"

Is Willis who she wants us to pick or who she thinks we will pick? (as of right now, still a long way to go)

It’s fluid, it could change at any moment. I’m just saying she said on Twitter, her sources are saying we like Pickett, same thing Albright is hearing.

    • It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.   
    • Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
