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

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. 

 

Everything that you mentioned could be true, and in some cases is a fact. However, there is a chance he could overcome his limitations, and be a decent quarterback. My guess is that they are going to design the offense to be similar to the one that Jalen Hurts plays in with Philadelphia. That offense has a lot of rollouts getting Jalen hurts outside the pocket and allowing him to find the open receivers. Whether or not Bryce Young can execute, that type of offense is unknown, but if he busts then he will probably be a bust in a huge way. 
I guess this will be one of those situations where you would say you always miss one hundred percent of the shots you don’t take.

If you haven't noticed, there are certain huddlers that believe all the Young talk is nothing but a ploy to get the Texans to trade draft picks and give the Panthers another first rounder. It can't possibly be real interest or that the Texans were blowing smoke when so many rumors had them interested in Young weeks ago.

The Young talk is valid. He's definitely very possible, though all reliable sources say the decision isn't made yet.

That said, on the occasion of the Texans offering a decent package to trade up, do the Panthers take it?

If the offer's good enough, I think they do.

Mind you, that doesn't make the Young discussion a smokescreen. It's just the acknowledgment of another possibility.

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.

I mean, it could be, but so could Stroud, Richardson or Levis. And hell, even the best coaches and personnel guys make mistakes.

But I'm like you. I trust the people we have in charge now and will do so till they give me reason not to.

(here's hoping that doesn't happen anytime soon) 😕

What do NFL models know? They don’t play football.

Well, there was the Lingerie League.

(which, if my significant other is reading this, I want to make clear I absolutely positively never watched a single second of; I only know about it from seeing news articles online) 😐

Yeah you are correct any of them could bust.  I guess I mean the NFL wouldn't be shocked if we draft Young first.  In fact it's almost expected it will be him or Stroud.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      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.

      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.
