it is a testament to how stupid the average fan is that they want will Levis over Bryce young because of their height weight listing on espn.com

guys don’t just come around who are as good at playing the position as young is while still having so much physical talent

 

 

5'10 180 is a recipe for disaster, let another team deal with that

What is Young's physical talent?  It is smart and great at reading defenses.  I don't see anything physically jumping off the charts?

“smart and reading defense” isn’t physical talent dingo 

but neither is merely checking the box of being tall

how big is he then?

what a stupid question 

you’re the one manufacturing a sensational and unprovable take to reinforce your stance, I’m not carrying the burden of proof

go ahead and offer something to substantiate your claim other than “well I’m looking at it”

Do we have to get a Qb? If our staff thinks Stroud can be a NFL qb then we draft him otherwise I say we get Will Anderson.

Yes - we HAVE to get a QB, this draft.  No if's, and's or but's. We cannot continue on this QB path as a franchise.  There will not be a fanbase left when (if?) they eventually figure it out.  If we do get a guy like Will Anderson, what do you propose we do at QB next year?

My fault.  I meant "he is smart at reading defenses."  My question is what is his physical talent that you are so excited about?

if I see a player who can make every throw on the field, losing no velocity on the ball, who can quickly and efficiently navigate traffic in the backfield, is an effective mover and can throw accurately on the run, doing all of things things at an elite level, that player has outstanding physical talent

I can see that.  He will just need to adjust him game some in the NFL, but most players do.  Extending plays long enough to take those hits will hurt a lot more when it's NFL players doing it.  He seems very good at staying calm under pressure as well.

    • It is hard to win in the NFL. I’m never going to put an * next to a Dub.
    • We had a very favorable matchup our o-line manhandles theirs. Even Etienne looked like he would have had a great game on his limited rushing opportunities. 
    • I think that's part of the problem, he's spreading the ball around too much, many of them are the first read play calls, and on top of that, a large portion of them are purposefully called screens or other short passes. I just looked, the Cardinals are the only other team in the league right now without at least 3 players with 100+ yards receiving so far this year, with the majority of teams having 4 or more.  And even then, their #2 right now is McBride with over 200 yards. Our 2nd leading receiver this year has 108 yards (albeit with 4 more players with 82 or more). On the surface, that might not be as alarming as you might think, but when you add into it that Bryce is currently 6th in the league in pass attempts, and it's even more alarming that he hasn't gotten a 3rd player to 100 yards so far and his second highest is only 108. XL has 39 yards on 18 targets.  Renfrow has 82 yards on 24 targets.  Tremble has 87 on 16 targets.  Sanders has 92 on 14 targets. None of those are good enough, so why aren't we calling more plays with T-Mac as the first read and forcing the ball to him (and again, that's not me wanting my guy to get more targets, that's me wanting more targets for the only productive pass catcher so far this year, I'd feel the same no matter what that player's name was). All of this is why I have issues with Canales' play calling.  How do you have a player who had 73 yards in the first half and then you only give him 1 target in the 2nd half despite playing from behind the majority of that time? You can be happy about the win, happy about Dowdle getting 200 yards, but in a game where your QB threw it 30 times, I can't accept the above sentence in the same breath, that's just terrible play calling, which is on top of the already predictable play calling in general, which is also on top of boring play designs as well. Add it all up, and THAT is why I'm unhappy even after a win, not because "my guy" didn't have a bigger game.
