Bryce Young called a “mental savant”

People laughed when I said Bryce Young will be the best QB in this division as a rookie. They laughed when I said we would win the NFC South this year. They laughed when I said Bryce Young will establish himself as a top 3 QB in the NFC by the end of the season. They laughed when I said the franchise is destined for greatness with Young at QB. They laughed when I said Bryce Young would be the #1 pick over CJ Stroud. They laughed at me all over this board. Everything I have said has come true.

 

 

Keep laughing...

Nothing you've said has come true. Dude hasn't even taken a snap in Preseason.

So I suppose I'll continue to laugh until the time comes. "If you want to anoint their ass.."

Uhh, I wouldn't describe this board as 97% pro-Bryce predraft. 

 

I know, right. There's a bit of revisionist history going on in this thread. I remember when the OP was leaning towards Stroud. He came around though. He never jumped all-in on the Young hate-train though. I will give him that.

It's amusing seeing folks argue about who loved Bryce Young before anyone else. One of the main ones didn't even hop on the Young wagon until the vegas odds fully shifted toward him. Maybe take a step outside in the sunlight from time to time guys.

Yeah.   Some of them truly live in their own little world.

I'll admit that I was always 100% a Stroud guy, right up until they announced Bryce as the pick and then I turned to backing our guy (and just praying his frame can hold up to a 10+ year career).

Pre-trade I wanted Stroud first, AR second, and Bryce third.  

Once we made that trade it eliminated AR from my board, but was still Stroud first with Bryce a distant second.  

His mental side of the game was the only reason I was ever going to be accepting of him as the pick, as it always was known that he was truly special in that regard.  But I'll never stop being concerned about his frame holding up (and no, has nothing to do with height).

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
