Has Young shown flashes of being a #1 pick?

He absolutely has not shown even a glimmer.  If he had been selected #1 overall by a division rival, we would all be laughing our asses off right now.

truth

especially with the picks given up and NO 1st this year(looking like a top3 lock currently too)

No. 

Young hasn’t shown the flashes a #1 overall should.  Especially one you traded up for.  That should be the type playmaker that occasionally overcomes all the poo and does something.  Bryce has zero flashes in that aspect.  

Surprise Surprise tep daddy making yet another impatient stupid decision at qb. Everything decision he makes is the wrong one. I swear to God it's impressive.

I was against drafting him mainly because when I watched him play against a mediocre Texas defense in 2022 he looked like trash aside from one last miracle drive that gave Alabama the win. If Quinn Ewers didn’t get hurt in that game, Texas would have stomped Alabama, and their entire season would have gone differently. 

Bryce seems like a nice enough guy, but he’s too short to read an NFL defense and the head coach is a reject from another bad franchise.

Remember when Trevor Lawrence was a bust after his rookie year? They went 3-14 and he had a lot of very pedestrian games just like Bryce is currently having. One exception was his first game where he had 300 yards 3 tds and 3 int. It was his only 300 yard game of the year so it was more of an outlier for him. It was also only 1 of 2 games in which he threw more than 1 TD pass. The 2nd game being the last game of the season

Obviously the main difference here is that his HC was fired after year 1 (could the same happen here? I doubt it). I really think they just need time. Let them (the team) take their lumps this year and hopefully next year we can have a similar year two that Jacksonville experienced with Trevor.

Thats not the obvious difference.

He hasn’t made stupid rookie decisions so that’s good.

He is accurate when he picks his receiver. 

Not a whole lot else but it sure doesn’t look like he is in a position to be successful right now. And it looks worse because Stroud and AR have had success. But history tells us these QB will look like crap this season too as defenses get tape on them. How many rookies have looked good and no panned out at all? And how many rookie QB have looked terrible and turned in pro bowl QB? 
 

Stroud has had a historic start. How many QBs in that caliber of start didn't pan out?

Not saying Bryce is a bust by any means, but Stroud looks like the real deal.  He may have a slump at some point but there's no evidence he won't be able to have success long term.

    • Just going off the draft sims and he's always sitting around 20 lol. First year in a while where we haven't been thinking about the draft already in late October so haven't really looked into the top 15-20 picks yet. Also the qb class is super weak so he probably will sneak up into 10-15
    • I fully expect them to pick up his 5th year , and they're waiting for him to put a full excellent consistent season of QB play in year 4 or 5. If that don't happen,  they'll eventually cut ties.  Here's to hoping he just goes on a team in 2026. The worst thing he could do is continue to see-saw us to around .500 records because it might be impossible to replace him at that point unless youre willing to do the veteran qb carousel poo we did from 2019 to 2023.   
    • What do you think of Bryce Youngs career thus far? Are you excited about his progress or is it not enough for you? I included a poll of ranking his performance through 3 years thus far.  I personally think he's made some decent progress. Has had some high moments (last half of 2024, Rams game, ATL game in 2025)  but in my mind, those are still outweighed by the many more lowlights thus far (ex turnovers, missed throws, poor decisions)  It's a very mixed bag for me. He's done enough to get a 5th year option but by no means should we lock him in with a 50+ mil a year multi year deal. I want to see him play consistently well for a full year before that happens (yes, I'm still saying that going into year 4. That might be telling).  Just sucks when you see CJ Stroud, Jayden Daniel's, Caleb Williams almost immediately lighting poo up with their arm talent. Maybe Bryce is just an ultra slow burn. I don't know what to think anymore. Guess we're gonna be stuck with him for a whilr unless we end up being bad enough to earn a high pick next year. I doubted it lol. Overall Stats for his career:       ● 14 W - 30L (regular season)       ● 0-1 playoffs record        ● 61.4% completion, 8291 passing yards, 49 TDs, 30 INTs  Year 1:       ● 2 wins, 14 losses      ● 60% completion rate, 2877 passing yards, 11 TD to 10 INTs, 5.5 yards per attempted pass Year 2:        ● 4 wins , 8 losses        ● 60.9% completion rate,  2403 passing yards, 15 TD, 9 INTs,  6.3 yards per attempted pass  Year 3:        ● 8 Wins, 8 Losses         ● 63.6% competition rate, 3011 passing yards, 23 TDs to 11 INTs  Playoffs         ● 1 game in year 3 ( 0 - 1 in playoffs)         ● 21/40 (52.5% completion rate), 264 passing yards, 1 TD, 1 INT.
