Bryce Young Media Tour Week

[SaltAndPepper]

Like a lot of you, I've also seen all the Bryce clips on Sportscenter, ESPN, podcasts such as the PIvot. My question is, to you, the holistic huddler, why is Bryce Young (and to a lesser degree Will Anderson), why is Bryce Young going on this media tour anyway? What does he have to gain from it? Why isn't any of the other quarterbacks in the "consensus" (AR, WL, CJS) not doing media tours similar to Bryce? Enlighten me please. 

 

Disclaimer: This is in no way shape or form me disliking Bryce. I love Bryce and all the other QBs (except Levis). Just was curious about the timing and the suddenness of this media wave.

Only thing I can guess is bc everyone knows he’s the pick, the number one pick gets the most coverage.

I'd guess two things mostly:

1. He's the biggest name in the draft (no pun intended lol)

2. He's probably going to be the number 1 pick so it's probably largely centered around that.

Its not him media touring, its his brands he sponsored too.

Building his brand

[Dilla]

Agent putting in work. Will further help him appeal to companies looking sign promotion deals as well (although he has some from college already)

So he wants to be a celebrity before a Top NFL QB

He's playing to his strengths. Makes sense to me.

[Jon Snow]

Because he gets paid to do it?

I like the way you think.

 

The Panthers owned this off-season. Trading up was costly but its paying off in spades.

Get those #9 jerseys on the NFL Shop already!

I will never understand people buying jerseys of players that haven't played in the NFL yet. You don't want to wait a few games to make sure they don't suck??

Did people do this with Teddy and Sam?? Christ

Actually, no. Cam got nowhere near this much praise from the media before draft. Accomplished as Cam was he still had to earn their respect. Nice try.
