He was so worth that in my opinion. Watch him begin to shine this season

I'm still shocked at how wrong the NFL got that evaluation. It's like they forgot who he was as a player just because he had to turn into a poor man's The Golden Calf of Bristol his final year of college due to losing his entire supporting cast of skill position players to the NFL draft. UNC isn't Bad or UGA or OSU. They can't just bounce right back from that type of talent exodus, the depth of talent just isn't there.

Thank God the QB contracts are finally getting reasonable. 

52 million dollars a year for a Justin Herbert is absolutely insane.  WTF is Burrow gonna get?  60 a year?  Its untenable to have 1 player, regardless of how talented, eat up 25% of your salary cap.  Something has got to give.

I didnt think he was worth a top 10 pick or probably even a first round one either but he was IMO a damn lock for us to take him in the 4rth or 5th just as another cheap dart to keep throwing at the position.

Matt Rhule would have buried him just like he did with Corral and we’d be sitting here in the same position with Bryce Young and Howell instead of Corral just hoping he shows enough in preseason to develop some trade value.

Sadly, this is probably accurate.

Rhule had the Midass touch. Everything he touched turned to sh-t 😕

For our part, I know the word was that Corral was McAdoo's pick.

They could do something like the MLS or NBA luxury tax, and give some kind of QB position exemption on the salary cap. Like 50% is not counted towards the cap space. Of course, the owners probably wouldn't like it because that's more money out of their pockets, because they don't make enough money on tv deals, tickets, merchandise, food, etc...

I don't disagree at all with the point that Rhule is a clown but Howell played in 1 game last year and only because Wentz and Heinicke got hurt/sucked. It's not like he started a season and got a ton of reps/time. 

Why did I read Wentz and Heinicke as Weinke?

Serious question, Huddle: Who's worse Patrica or Rhule?

Patricia is worse. Ruhle at least has some credibility left in the college game. One of the funniest (not in a good way) things I’ve seen a HC do was when Patricia talked down to a reporter about sitting up straight and tucking a shirt in to have respect for the process when he looks like he should be a line cook at a dennys.

      Go after Shedeur this offseason.

      By TD alt · Posted

      I mean, you probably should've waited after the season is over before "going there," that way we we'd have four more games of comparison and discussion. Don't get me wrong, I occasionally go out on a limb, but Bryce just had his best game and has given people hope (which could realistically be false hope), and Shedeur just doesn't have that many games under his belt (even if he does look promising), one of them being against the Titans. No harm in being patient and letting things play out.  If you noticed, Tepper seems to be taking a wait-and-see attitude, and he didn't mention Bryce in the clip in the other thread. I'm still highly skeptical of Bryce (and glad that Sanders has shown an ounce of success), but the reality is that we have to let things play out. The Sanders train left long ago (if it was even here). But,there are more realistic options if Bryce turns back into a frog.

      First 4 NFL starts - Tyler Shough

      By CRA · Posted

      imagine thinking that talking about our next opponent is "gassing up" someone.... and then lying about basic info because it's not flattering to the league's worst starting QB since he arrived.  as a starter he is 2-3 (just a fact) as a starter vs Bryce this year pass yards per game - Shough rush yards per game - Shough comp % - Shough  QB rating - Shough yards/per attempt - Shough and Shough is only good for a 2nd year rookie thrust into the gig on a bad team.   He is getting graded on a curve of what he is.  And he won the last head to head vs us, and looked like the best QB on the field that day.   there are a billion red flags when it comes to Bryce Young.  This is just another.

      Imagine gassing up a 2-4 QB for a terrible division rival with stats worse than our QB in every category except raw yards per game
