I've seen lower suggestions than that.

Not sure how it ultimately shakes out but yeah, it's looking like a pretty big whiff.

If they cant get a 2nd for him, I would just keep him and play him until Purdy is healthy. Maybe his stock can go up some....

Regarding Purdy...

That possibility makes some analysts think the 49ers are more likely to hang on to Lance.

If they were to part ways with him with Purdy still injured and Sam Darnold being the only other option though, yikes 😬

Yeah....with that news, no way they let Lance go for cheap.

Just saw an interview with Jalen Carter about the terrible situation that he was at least involved with where 2 people lost their lives. He said teams will probably take that against him.  He said absolutely nothing about the victims or anything about the situation.  He had Drew Rosenhaus sitting right beside him.  I just wouldn’t touch this dude in this draft.  He is out of touch with reality

The talk was Atlanta at #8, but I imagine there was more press than here about this situation there.

That's your reason. Why would he talk about the accident?

 

He's trying to get drafted. This is why you hire an agent. They keep it about football.

 

 

My point was he needed to be that closely monitored by his agent even in an interview.  That doesn’t feel right to me

I agree it sucks he didn't mention it, but that's not why they are interviewing him so I can see both sides.

He said that he wanted to tell his side.  However, if you are interviewing a player involved in this horrible event sitting on his couch before the draft, the issue is character.  His agent on the couch was not there for cosmetics--he knows he has a delicate situation and did not want his client to be compromised by a reporter--but the risk of his character being damaged was real and the comment Shocker makes is a fair one.  However, I can say that any comment he makes could probably be used against him--so any good lawyer would advise him to not discuss the victims.  You have to imagine the tape being played in court--"I feel so badly for the people who died." The jury could equate that with guilt or responsibility--I have not been keeping up with the details, so I am just speculating.

Drew Rosenhause has been in a lot of interviews with his clients. I think you're reading too much into it. He's a kid and was probably scared of the spotlight.

 

That is fair…I understand the legal implications.  Why are we here though?  He has had serious questions about character outside of this incident.  I hope he succeeds but I wouldn’t pick him, too many red flags

He's still rated as a top 3 prospect in the draft. Some team will take him my bet is Philly.

 

He cost himself a few extra mil though he was going to be the 1st defensive player off the board before the accident.

 

Brandon Miller from Alabama had a similar situation. I don't remember him doing a public interview. These are kids at the end of the day. At that age I would be scared to talk in public as well.

You could be right but my tolerance for spending a top 10 pick on a guy with these red flags is much lower than yours.  The guy is a super talent but could be a huge headache

      Greg Cosell: Bryce Young is a complimentary piece

      By HaricotVert · Posted

      If Reich or Fitterer were still around I think the need to extend Young because of what he cost would be stronger.  And yeah Morgan was Fit's right hand when the call was made but there an equal chance that Dan will see it as a chance to move on from Fit and shake off that stink. Holding out some hope that 3 years and clear eyes will allow for an honest appraisal that Young just aint the guy

      Greg Cosell: Bryce Young is a complimentary piece

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      As far as elite/elevate talent QB’s It’s Allen Mahomes Jackson and Burrow that’s it.  Then we have tiers and those can be debated all day Dak is a good QB but I know this board would want him out of Charlotte if he was the QB here. 2 playoff wins in 10 years. Justin Herbert no playoff wins. Threw 4 interceptions in last years playoff game. 23 TD passes last year. 20 the year below and 25 the year before that. This board loves stats without context and these stats aren’t saying they’re much above complimentary  Kyler Murray isn’t good. I’m not sure how he made this list.  Caleb Williams, Trevor Lawrence both benefiting from some real good offensive coaches right now. They’re both complimentary pieces until proven otherwise  I like Jordan Love. Always have. I wanted to draft him but he isn’t a superstar.  CJ Stroud hasn’t been much better than Bryce after his rookie season. After that Bears game year 2 his numbers very similar to Bryce I will say I think Drake Maye is well on his way to becoming the next top tier QB if I had to pick one from this entire list. I’d also say Baker Mayfield is a damn good QB and I’d take him over most of those guys not in the elite category  Now if you want to debate tools and which QB’s possess tools to put them in higher tiers that’s a completely different discussion. Most QB’s on your main list all have those physical tools that will keep you thinking he’ll become the next top tier QB. They’ll sprinkle in a “wow” play or two a game. Bryce will never look that way. Young’s game at its peak will physically always look different and I think that’s where most people struggle when it comes to seeing how Young’s can be successful in the league  All QB’s need a team around them. I think the Bills are failing Josh Allen much like the Panthers did Cam. Beane and McDermott using same blueprint with Bills team. Josh Allen hasn’t had much in terms of WR’s and it’s ultimately costing them when it matters the most
