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

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.  

My point is it’s not some colossal mistake, it’s backed by film and analytics that the professionals use. I trust Reich’s opinion over people on a random message board.

That’s nice and I’m happy for you.  These same people you trust make bad decisions often about players. Young is a midget and it will prove to be a mistake. He’s certainly a smart player, but he’s simply small and no one can correct that.

This is no smokescreen. I think they were sincere about wanting the fans at the draft party to know who was on the way so they wouldn’t have a mixed reaction to it. I think it’s also a nice little get back at Houston for how they played it with Watson. Texans will say Stroud was their guy at 1 and they should, but bell to bell this year it was Young.

This will be a disaster if true. A tiny QB with a mediocre, at best, arm. Great kid. Great attitude. Quick brain. He will have a much smaller margin of error than he had in college. The results will reflect that. His lack of athleticism, arm strength, size, and inability to play from under center will not be overcome by processing speed, brain power, and/or attitude. 
 

If drafted by the Panthers, I hope that I am wrong. I do not think I will be though. I hope that this is part of a smokescreen. It’s getting a tad bit harder to believe that though as the draft gets closer.

Texans will get the last laugh.

The was article on NFL.com where they plugged Young’s intangibles into a model… not hight or weight but his playing intangibles and there was zero QB who made it in NFL with his playing style.  The model predicted he needs an amazing supporting cast to succeed in NFL.  I posted that article weeks ago and got there responses from Young supporters.

Man some people on here sound legit angry that it might be Bryce lol. I get that he might not be your first choice and the height/weight criticisms are valid but some of the vitriol is insane to me. 
 

Any of these guys could bust, and any of them could be superstars. We just gotta hope that the guy we choose is a superstar.

      Joint Practice - Jets

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.

      Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.

      You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
