Scrambled pocket passer. Any NFL DC can take that away what will he do next? He's not Kyler. Ohhhhhh, he's going to learn how to run in the open field in the NFL with hawks and owls?

You guys are more crazy than those trying to explain just why there are prototypes and why AR is much safer at #1 than BY because of the Cam Newton model WE already put forth as a franchise in the NFL.

BY isn't even Kyler, can't run the rock. This frame, type of player, hasn't been done before.

6'5" 240+lbs, running like a deer, trucking like a Mack, throwing over mountains, THAT has been done before. We have a NFC Championship to prove it.

Go big or GO HOME.

 

So you want your QB to sacrifice themselves meeting LBs in the open field instead of picking defences apart with their arm ok cool.

Not like CJ did this past year. And there’s plenty of footage of CJ moving around to miss tackles or extend the play but the rep here is he is a statue. It’s whatever 

I've looked at several analyses, and Young is a better tight window thrower than CJ is a scrambler, inside or outside the pocket. C.J. is the best pure thrower in the draft, and that is his claim to fame. It's no small thing, but he's closer to just an average guy pertaining to pocket awareness and the ability to extend plays. Bryce does not have an issue with throwing from the pocket or throwing into tight windows. That's not a weakness of his in the slightest.  I don't see why anyone that's actually been researching these guys would have a problem with admitting these things.

He isn't fast enough to outrun anyone.

What?

Just because you aren't as fast as Lamar Jackson doesn't mean you aren't fast enough to outrun a good amount of defenders.  And it isn't like Bryce's game was dependent on outrunning anyway.  He makes people miss with his ability to cut on a dime, which absolutely translates to Sunday.

"Quarterbacks with similar draft profiles like Josh Allen and Justin Herbert (official ripp bandwagon player)have been huge successes, so taking a risk here is tantalizing considering both these recent anecdotes and the fact that there’s no consensus franchise prospect this year like an Andrew Luck or a Trevor Lawrence."

 

"But Richardson is more than just a physically-gifted fixer-upper. He’s consistently shown some high-level quarterback play on film and is more refined than most people think. He generally does a good job of getting through his progressions and throwing with anticipation, and his pocket movement is already very good, especially for a 21-year-old. The results haven’t been there, though, and that’s largely due to issues with accuracy."

I don't think he wants a QB using his brain. He wants them to bulldoze everything.

MOAR POWER!!!!

He has blockers and field vision and Cam was underappreciated for learning a sweet baseball slide nobody cared to even notice. AR can work on that right away. 

If Corral looks good, run him until AR is ready. If Corral looks great, AR is QB2 this year, one play away.

Same exact playbook because they're similar aside from accuracy at the moment both big arms, both can run the rock and punish defenses doing so.

Guess who else threw a pretty ball when everything was in sync but also had reports of being hard to coach Josh Rosen

Corral took 2 steps and got hurt with an injury history following him from college and your here running down Young about injuries that might happen

    • overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.
    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
