More Smoke? Adam Schefter: CAR traded for Young, then checked other QBs. They did not bridge gap.

If you haven't accepted Bryce Young will be our QB by now then I feel sorry for you.

 

Im already making plans to get his #9 jersey.

 

Until then keep making those small jokes...

They’ll have him here in the introductory press conference and there will people still unable to come to grips it isn’t a smoke screen

We are FAR from the only organization/people that think Young is the best prospect in this class.  This isn't something outlandish or crazy, in fact in the general consensus throughout the NFL.  Young looks to be the number 1 QB prospect this year and this is coming from someone who has leaned Stroud.  

And how many times have these same people been wrong about the best QB in a draft? Many, that’s how many. I’m still not in the trust Reich club yet. He’s done nothing to deserve that trust yet.

Out of all the QB in this draft AR or Levis(you never know) could ball out and Young or Stroud could be a bust but is unlikely. Nobody will know anything until these prospects actually play to show their worth. Only good coaching can hopefully fix each QB's flaws.

How does coaching fix being 5'10" and 185lbs?

Brees had to crane his neck to see over the OLine and he admitted he was still throwing blind to the middle of the field. He was 2 inches taller than Young (and no less athletic).

I think it will be a minority, I think even if its young there will be a overwhelming sense of excitement that we finally have someone to build around

Yeah coaching can't fix height issues but can fix gameplay issues. 😆

I mean if it's true Cam couldn't get calls due to his size, then Bryce should get the Michael Jordan treatment

I’ve been wishing for years we could simply get a laughing reaction, this was funny lol

Yeah, Young and Brees might’ve been the same height if Brees didn’t have a neck like Mike Glennon

I just want us to draft the guy the consensus within the organization seems as the best QB prospect. Ultimately, it's their jobs on the line. They're all getting fired in a couple of years if this dude busts and we're right back here again.

 

Right, can’t play scared. Draft the guy you feel best about, support him with personnel, scheme, and coaching and let’s see if he’s got that. I do feel like this staff seems more capable of that than the last time we had the number 1 pick but they still gotta land the right guy..point blank it’s just hard to to know who that guy is otherwise the mahomes’, Allen’s, Brady’s would’ve been drafted number 1

Folks will realize pretty fast this experiment is a huge mistake. I’m not surprised at all by the fact they may be seriously considering picking him, it is after all Teppers chosen crew and we all know Tepper has yet to make a solid decision.

    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.  
    • Jackie, any more reps tomorrow, or is that it for this session?  thanks for the work
    • How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
