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.

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

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

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.

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.

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

 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.

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.

LMFAO

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

      I’VE FOUND OUR WR3 (Rashid Shaheed)

      By Car123 · Posted

      Rashid Shaheed Born: Aug 31, 1998 (27 years) Height and weight: Height 6′ 0″, Weight 180 lbs Current team: Seattle Seahawks (#22 / Wide receiver/kick returner) Rashid Shaheed signed a one-year, $5.2 million extension with the Saints in July 2024, keeping him under contract through the 2025 season with a $1M signing bonus and $4.2M base salary in 2025, before being traded to the Seahawks at the 2025 deadline, making him an Unrestricted Free Agent in 2026.   His initial deal was a 2-year, $6.185M contract with $1M guaranteed through 2025.    Rashid Shaheed's scouting report highlights him as an electrifying, big-play deep threat receiver known for elite efficiency on deep routes, explosive plays, and reliable hands (zero drops over multiple seasons), though he's undersized (around 180 lbs) and needs to improve blocking and route running consistency to shed his "situational/boom-or-bust" label and become a full-time WR1/WR2.     Strengths: Elite Deep Threat: Ranks among the league's best in air yards per target and yards per reception, consistently producing 30+ yard catches and touchdowns. Playmaker: "A playmaker" who excels at making plays downfield and adding a vertical dimension to offenses. Reliable Hands: Showcased impressive ball skills with zero drops over recent seasons, even making contested catches. Efficiency: Finishes high in metrics like yards per route run, demonstrating effective production when targeted. Undrafted Gem: A significant value find for the Saints, proving overlooked prospects can excel.      Areas for Improvement: Size/Blocking: At around 180 lbs, he's smaller and less effective as a blocker, which limited his snaps in New Orleans compared to bigger receivers. Route Running: Needs to develop cleaner routes and better consistency in intermediate areas to earn more targets beyond deep shots. Consistency/Role: Often a "boom-or-bust" or situational player due to volume fluctuations, needing more consistent targets to reach WR1 status.      Role/Projection: Schematic Weapon: Stretches defenses, creating space for other players and opening up the run game, making offenses more efficient. Fantasy Profile: A high-upside FLEX or WR4, capable of winning weeks with big plays but dependent on volume and quarterback play. Future Outlook: His value hinges on earning a larger, more consistent role, potentially becoming a true WR2 with more opportunity and development in blocking/route running.

      Dan Morgan open to bringing in younger QB to develop/compete for backup role

      A team that wants to win at any cost rolls with Young and Dalton for 3 years?

      Trubisky would be a top 5 backup QB with potential for long term replacement stretches if Bryce gets benched.  The issue will be price. Also a big fan of Allar late in the draft. THAT is the kind of injury gamble you take. Not in the 2nd but on a 5th-7th rounder that was formerly a top 2 round prospect.
