PETER KING: Bryce Young will be the pick

It’s just a race to see if they can become SB caliber while he’s on his first contract. 

The only way it makes sense is if you're a really good contender level type team and you think you're an elite talent at RB away from a SB run. Meaning you're holding that pick because you either landed it in a prior trade or your QB was hurt all year or something along those lines.

Wasn't sure, but thought this may need it's own thread: Bryce Young took a dump at 8:02am this morning after scratching his nuts upon waking up at 6:15am.

Again, thought about a new thread, but thought it may be a bit overkill.

So it was a productive morning once awake then....

Get use to it buddy. He's the face of the franchise for the next 10+ years. He's going to be discussed a lot on this sub. This is just the beginning of threads brother. Might as well start embracing him because he's not going anywhere anytime soon...

Well, yeah, but at least this year, if Desmond Ridder is half as competent and the Falcons coaching staff is half as competent to use Kyle Pitts, I can see the NFC South being a dogfight. 

That’s alot of IF’s for a team drafting a RB that high…

That’s fine he’s the pick, I just wish it wasn’t leaked this soon. I would have liked to be surprised on draft night. 

That was planned meltdown mitigation. 

From my perspective, a surprise was never in the cards (even though the media was doing it's best to generate suspense).

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
