I was penciling him in as a bust the moment Hurney selected him in the second round. Same with Chinn.

Something a lot of people don't seem to want to talk about is how irrelevant Chinn actually is out there these days. No splash plays, just chasing guys down after they run past either him or everyone else.

Burns Can't finish plays. Dude would be an all-pro if he could actually tackle. 

The entire defense is filled with disappointment.

The coaching staff has completely neutered Chinn. I forgot he was even on the team. His rookie year, and yes he was robbed of ROY, seems like decades ago.

Not sure if I'm 100% right but if my memory bank is somewhat correct ...YGM was a highly rated prospect coming out...only favored by Chaisson and Chase Young. Pretty sure there were a few predicting he might have even been a late first rounder. We got him in the 2nd..top 100. He has the size but although he did get to QB at Penn State he was probably graded better as a run defender...as was Derrick Brown which is even more frustrating considering our situation. 

He's definitely underperforming, from my expectations anyway. Hopefully his increased playing time will translate to better numbers as he progresses. 

The more I look at the line... the more I shake my head..

Burns(1st)-  Ioannidis(5th)  - Brown (1st) - YGM (2nd)

That's alot of draft capital. Returns aren't satisfying. Furthermore...

Thompson (1st) - Wilson (4th) - Luvu (UDFA)

Horn(1st)/Henderson(1st) - Jackson(2nd)

Chinn (2nd)- Woods (6th)

I will say Woods and Chinn make a great tandem. But hopefully YGM hasn't reached his peak. Definitely a huge dropoff from Reddick.

Good stuff here. also, to be fair to the players we are in year 3 of a sinking ship and the coaching staff is so bad that I can’t help but wonder what would happen to YGM, Brown, etc if some real coaches came in

Chinn's effectiveness went way down when he was switched to full time safety.

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      Bryce averaged 208 yards per game with a 61% completion since coming back.  How is that top 10?

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By panthers55 · Posted

      Actually,  what lines up with your ideas he is too short or small to be successful.? His passing completions or total yards? Bryce is going into his 13th game with a legitimate offense and good offensive coach. And during that time he went from the worst qb in the league to top 10 by the end of the year based on game production against a number of playoff teams.  And he showed that he can lead comebacks and score under pressure at the end of the game and overtime. He stayed cool under pressure and was one of the best against the blitz by year end. That is the holy grail in quarterback traits and Bryce went from crumbling under pressure to stepping up and delivering strikes down the field. Maybe it is me but those kind of qualities far out weigh a few inches or a few pounds here and there.  Everyone holds their breath when he get whacked by a 350lb linemen and exhales when he magically arises seemingly unfazed. And yeah when he is backpedalling and tosses one out there as if it is random only to float into Thielen's hand it seems just luck. Kind of like Russell Wilson years ago. But I think you are letting your past rob you of enjoying what I hope is happening which is the development of our franchise guy. And for the record I am all about bringing in competition  at all positions including quarterback.
