Hopefully Bryce will be great and get his money on his second contract.  

I think after that Jamarcus Russell disaster and Sam Bradford rookie contract ….NFL was pretty damn smart to make a wage scale. NBA does it.

that fifth year team option too tho

5th year option won't matter with Bryce.

He's not going to be like a Daniel Jones who struggles to pick up the game and they need the 5th year to evaluate.

Bryce is either going to be a smashing success and will sign an extension long before then or he's going to have injury issues and we'll be looking to replace him by then.

The rookie wage scale and fifth year option is one of the few recent developments in the NFL that is actually pretty good and makes the game better imo.  High picks get their guaranteed money while the teams that drafted them aren't hamstrung with Sam Bradford type rookie deals.

Sam Bradford wasn't even that bad, he just couldn't stay healthy.

  It's the lazy ass Jamarcus Russell types you have to avoid.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.

      Where panthers draft ranked against Big Boards in 2023

      What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.

      That doesn't void his contract
