Bah... was thinking of starting a thread about Byrd after the Theilen and Chark signing. 

Good signing. The Wr FA was not great, actually it was very poor, but Byrd made sense. 

He is  certainly not big. But can line up on the outside which was a big need for the WR position.

To many slot guys on the roster, which limited how some players could be used. Marshall is an example, should be given more opportunity as a slot, but was "forced" to play outside because no one else could do it last season.

And this signing do not mean a WR should not be drafted. It just sets up the team to truly draft BPA.

Is he better than he was, the same, or worse?

about the same, little slower, but better routes.....typical aged jaggy player.

 

My view is him at KR or PK...oooo and he lit up the pantgghers either last yr or the year before. 

 

Hes still a solid 5 type of option.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.

      The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
