Fitty after DJ Johnson sounded hammered in the draft call…

I have probably watched every single “the call” video for every pick we’ve made in the last 15 years or more (at least since they started posting them on the interwebs)…I just love those clips.

and that call with DJ ranks up there with the worst of them.

I recall Dwayne Jarrett being high as a kite during an interview on ESPN after we drafted him.

Yea, he was high AF but I’m sure coaches know these guys smoke in the off-season. 
 

As someone that hates talking on the phone, having to talk to 5 different people in one call would drain tf out of me no matter how short the call is lol

I hear nothing wrong there

First, there is no problem at all if he was drunk or high there.  You could hear there were a ton of people in the background, clearly having a draft party.  Do you really think there isn't drinking and/or smoking going on at every one of these draft parties?  They're not getting drafted like a pickup basketball game and needing to jump right into the game, it would be perfectly acceptable if they were enjoying the party like any other 24 year old.  It's not like the guy showed up drunk to the green room at the draft, that would be concerning.

Second, there are always delayed responses on those calls and the coaches all know it.  Whether it's their emotions making them take a beat before getting a response out or just family not being able to control themselves and hugging, high five-ing, talking to you, etc.

    • It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.   
    • Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
