Hall of Famer Bill Parcells on Bryce Young's Size: 'He Better Walk on Water'

When watching film on Bryce Young his quickness of movement really stood out to me.

His quick twist and the way he moves his feet in the pocket should be a positive for avoiding and taking hard hits,

 

Any concerns on him standing on his toes or hopping in the air to get throws off? That kinda stuff no one brings up on film reviews for some reason

It has been done.  Doug Flutie was not as good as Young.  He had a 12-year NFL career.

He was 5'10"  180lbs.

Go do a deep dive on his stats and honestly tell me of you think this is a positive comp for a 1st round pick, much less a #1 overall pick. If we're being honest, no one remembers Doug Flutie's name as an NFL QB if he's 6'3" 220. We'd still remember the Miracle in Miami at Boston College, but the NFL? Nah. His best two seasons, Buffalo was a very good rushing offense and a pretty sorry passing offense. When he went 10-5 in '99 the Bills had the #2 defense in points allowed in the NFL.

If Doug Flutie is your argument... oh wee mayne.

Right, the outdated model for QB evals which is the only reason Parcells gets summoned yearly any more.

  • Be a three-year starter
  • Be a senior in college
  • Graduate from college
  • Start 30 games
  • Win 23 games
  • Post a 2-1 touchdown-to-interception ratio
  • Complete at least 60% of passes thrown

So, Parcells says do not draft Joey B, T-Law, Allen or some rando named Mahomes. Also Bryce I guess.

Actually JT o’Sullivan talks about that in his most recent video and praises it. If you think he is doing that “to look over the line” … then you are falling for misinformation.

 

here is another great video that discusses his footwork in detail as well

That video is not selling me on his drop back timing/arm strength issues at all but thanks. I know he could scramble in college vs guys that won't start in the NFL

    • Not many are talking about this player. He played well as a rookie last year. If he refines his blocking, continues studying film, and keeps working hard, I can see him being the next Greg Olsen. I’m expecting 55 catches, 700 yards, 4 TDs this season.  
    • I'm not a Bryce hater and I would 100% move on.  Especially looking at how the upcoming qb draft looks on paper.  Hopefully he continues to improve but if in 3 seasons you're still chasing average season numbers then he's not going to be the guy.  You've just got to keep taking swings until you hit.  Average qbs without any elite physical traits cant get it done anymore.  So this year Hopefully he continues to develop and is above average statistically.
    • Meltdowns???? He was pulled by Canales because he wasn't executing the game plan after 2 games into the season so he could watch Dalton execute the offense and show Bryce the windows available in the NFL, how to push the ball down the field and how to step up and move around when blitzed. When Young came back 5 games later he clearly watched and improved. Enough he was named the future starter. He doesn't have a history of  meltdowns nor is there any reason to assume he will have one. From what I have read he is mentally strong and emotional stable. He may have bad games down the road, everyone does. But this is all a learning experience for him and so far he seems to be making progress. I can understand being hesitant on anything Panthers, but Young has surprisingly been able to gain his confidence after a disastrous start. You aren't alone in being cautious but I think he is the future. I thought he was too small and too short to succeed in the NFL. Honestly I was pleasantly surprised last year and am optimistic about the offense for the first time since Wilks and Dalton were decent.
