Bryce is getting David Carr'd

If anyone wants some minor relief, Levis is a complete deer in the headlights today.  Looks awful.

His first game where he just launches PA bombs was obviously not a proper sample size.  Playing full games, needing to create drives, he's got some issues.  

Titans OL is a mess right now too. I live in TN and many of their fans were upset about how bad their OL is.

And it's a damn shame to witness week in and week out. 

Bryce can't play under center. This is a failure from ownership to the coaching staff. I won't even blame Fitterer because it's become apparent that Tepper organized the trade, pushed to draft Young, and hired Reich. 

Young is short. You can't run exclusively out of the shotgun in the NFL and win. That is, in part, Bryce's fault. No need to feel bad for him he's such a hyper processor and so much like Patrick Mahomes or Chris Paul that he should be able to dish the rock to anyone from any Arm angle, right? 

SEC! SEC! Just like the NFL, I hears.

Morons.

he should have never been the pick... never!

As ticked as people are, hindsight is a bitch, and nobody knows if the Texans are having to run a simplified playbook for Stroud that will eventually get figured out.  There's multiple sources saying the Texans would've made the same pick at #1 as us. I don't care how good Stroud looks now, that Wonderlic score was ridiculous and the team was right to question if he had the intelligence to play in the NFL.

It's not hindsight. Everyone was hyping Stroud until that stupid S2 test was released. CJ is getting it done, BY isn't.

And the team that took him intended to take Bryce Young if he was available. Teams interview these players too, it's not like we were the only team in the NFL to show concern.

Yeah. We all, and by we all I mean reasonable people, knew the assignment. The others were Alabama fanboys. Facts dictate that you don't trade up to the top of the first round for a QB because as important as QB is, the price is too steep and odds are that you'll miss.

I hope Tepper is happy. This is on him. It's not Fitterer. It's not Reich. It's squarely on Tepper. Unless he fires himself, this will not get better.

You don't know that they would've taken Bryce. They may have taken Richardson. 

1. Stroud

2. Richardson

3. Levis

4. Hooker

5. DTR

6. Young

If Bryce had gone anywhere other than Alabama, this would've been the draft order.

    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
