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.

    • I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.
    • This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.
    • to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
