Yeah, if the Bears had it to do over again they would've drafted Stroud too.

I think they still would have done what they did. They have so many pieces to get to be really competitive and trading away the pick for picks plus a stud WR is pretty sound. There’s no rumors they trade away the pick we are giving them and rolling with Fields for one more year before picking a QB again.

I liked Fields as a prospect and he's shown some flashes but at some point they gotta bite the bullet and move on and let someone else take a shot at salvaging Fields.

I think right now they are leaning towards a new offensive coordinator this offseason, honestly. Not that it would matter in the grand scheme of things but they have to know their conservative play calling late in games has cost them two wins, one against the Lions and one against the Broncos. 5-6 is a game back from the playoffs. Get that fixed and add two more elite pieces of talent to the team in the first round of the draft could look pretty juicy.

Yards per attempt is not the metric we should judge Bryce by.  We should be looking at Air Yards per Attempt.  That's the metric that tells us how far he was TRYING to throw the ball.  It currently sits at 4.7 air yards per attempt.

Honestly, his interceptions aren't overly concerning.  He's currently throwing INT's at a rate of 2.5%.  It's not awful.  During his Panthers career, Delhomme threw them at a rate of 3.3%.  And Jake was great.  Would you take young Jake back today?  I sure would.

What is concerning is his TD rate.  It's only 2.8%.  That's a problem.  Cam and Jake both threw TD's at a rate of 4.5%.

There is plenty of fault to go around with our offense.  But BY needs to control what he can control.  Be mechanically sound, make the right read, get the ball out on time.  Those things show up on film.  If your QB is doing those things, you can see on film that he is not the problem.

I mean, I'm a little encouraged by those stats because I thought that they'd be much worse. And considering that he has been sacked so many damned times---and that's not even including how many times he has been pressured---I'm surprised he hasn't been broken in half physically and emotionally. 

Some of you guys may not like it, but I'm withholding judgement. If he bombs next season after we've presumably improved the line and weapons, then I'll give up.

I'm kind of on the same boat.  It looks bad this year, but everything on offense does.  If he struggles next year with better weapons/protection then I'm more than ok with moving on.  I'm in favor of not getting too attached/defensive of a player, but also not overreacting/writing off too early.  We are stuck regardless so we might as well sit and wait...

      I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
