If we solve the OT problem then I wouldn’t mind it. He looks like Chase out there with his YAC ability. We’re at least a year away so might as well give Darnold/Cam all the weapons possible and go after a QB next year. Who knows…with elite weapons and a full off-season maybe Cam can actually do something.

Wouldn't get my hopes up on Shi making a major impact as a receiver. From Fitterer's comments, they really are trying to find a place him, and they're hoping that he becomes an adept punt returner or gunner. Shi needs to find his niche on ST. They apparently see him as a WR4.

 

 

 

 

 

I’m not, that point was more about how our WR room is nowhere near set or this would equate to being a luxury pick. Shi getting as much, if not a bit more room to work than Marshall was rather concerning for Marshall.

My only thing is that I don’t see a guy we can truly get behind other than Moore but he’s not the type to take the top off a defense or slowly grind one into submission.

Marshall was strangely MIA even at the end of last year with Shi honestly looking more promising at times. 

It’s a need and getting a young stud, arguably the best offensive skill player in an entire draft could really sweeten things up for a new young QB. 

Just imagine a young duo like Stroud and Wilson similar to what CIN has in 2 former teammates. Could be a cool tandem to lead a new era.

I am a little bit afraid that Marshall might end up being a flat out bust.

I get that we have issues at QB but he was really underwhelming. I hated the pick(OL stan) but liked the player, so I am a little surprised he didn't flash more in 2021. 

But, I think taking a WR at 6 would be a very Matt Millen-esque move. We have so many critical needs at positions that adding a top 10 pick WR to a WR corps with a lot of committed money just doesn't make any sense. Even less so considering we don't have a QB.

Now, if we traded a QB, I might be persuaded with an argument but as it stands right now, WR is not a dire need nor makes much sense.

      In addition to Evero there's one large change that likely should happen.

      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.

      CBS Sports brief discussion about questionable Canales decision making

      By TylerDurden · Posted

      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.
