Bryce Young under Center

Bryce Young was and is widely considered to be the number QB and player in the draft. Deal with it!

You said that he had a noodle arm. That's categorically untrue.

When you struggle to throw the ball past 40 yards, that’s a noodle arm.  Watch the highlight videos, most times his wide open WR had to nearly stop to catch the deep ball.  Young will have Baker Mayfield, Alex Smith ceiling in NFL.  He will dink and dunk ball in NFL.

And since you want to play the scouting report game (like it really makes a difference), here you go:

He doesn't struggle. That's a lie.

There are far more draft profiles that list his arm strength as not elite. Dunno what to tell you.  He's got the weakest arm of the top prospects in terms of strength, but he can still be plenty good. Arm strength can be overrated IMO.

Yes, he does.  Did you know NFL.com models projected him to struggle at the next level without proper supporting cast?

There’s a nice little montage of him doing what you say he can’t.

I didn't say he had "elite" arm strength. He has "good" arm strength. He doesn't have a "noodle arm." That's ludicrous! 

Arm strength is overrated period. If it took pure arm strength to win in the NFL, Jeff George and Jamarcus Russell would have been beasts. Arm strength is low down the totem pole. You just want a QB who can make all the throws.

 Im not really sure what you watched but that montage doesn’t really help your case that he has a strong arm.  In each throw he had to plant and then fully go through his motion to generate power.

You can criticize a player without telling an outright lie.

His arm isn’t a noodle like Ken Dorsey but his arm strength will be in the bottom half of the NFL for sure the moment he’s drafted. Not a huge ordeal but it means he has less room for mistakes when he throws.

The argument is noodle arm, he’s got a fine arm, it’s definitely not elite. 
 

The whole hyperbole in here on Young gets exhausting lol. The video was in response to someone saying he can’t throw it 40 yards without his receiver stopping for it.

Jeff George hated watching film and Russell came into the league with a drug problem.   Not really apples to apples

Interesting to know if those throws were in 2021 or last season because when people post them its always the season before the last. Personally, i have been closely paying attention to how he threw after he banged up his shoulder because there was some struggle at first.

That's what you're supposed to be doing.
