Does anyone know why DT was so infatuated with Young? Why he liked him over stroud? Its obvious he preferred him but i’m not sure why…

Guys like Tepper are spread sheet warriors, buying companies on PE ratios, earnings, EBITDA, etc, he uses his analysis more than his "gut"

 

His analysis with that dumb S2 report showed Young as an "elite" player

If you would use your eyes and just watched Young dice up Georgia, you knew he was pro ready. 

Alabama SEVERELY masked Bryce Young, they didn't win because of him, they won WITH him, put Young at UCLA or Duke and he doesn't elevate either program.

I think Tepper thought the S2 test was some kind of QB evaluation cheat tool and he convinced himself that QB was such a cerebral position that actual physical talent took a distant backseat to mental ability. Unfortunately, there are physical prerequisites. There are plenty of guys who weren't very good QBs as players who have become very good coaches. It wasn't a lack of mental ability, they didn't have the physical ability.

the better and bigger question is why does it matter what someone with zero football experience ‘prefers’?

the problem with Tepper isn’t what he prefers it’s that is that he thinks he matters and his opinion has value despite absolutely zero knowledge or experience

Alabama better this year without Young. Actually he was one of the worst from a win/loss title perspective of all Saban's qbs. 

Saban is a top 2 or 3 all time college coach. The guy knows how to get players ready to win college football games.  QB in the NFL is a completely different animal.

He's a square and quiet.

Tepper wants a certain image and Bryce fits it.

Complete opposite of Cam Newton. He was flashy with a funky hairstyle. Young is a choir boy, polite, and not loud.

Unfortunately, that's not enough to play and win in the NFL

    • Tepper is a bit unpredictable. He tossed 3 QBs out quick who could have been serviceable but kept Rhule for a 3rd year. It just seems who is in with him is safe until they aren't. I'm also not sure the pitch wasn't 'get him ready later in the season' yet with Young. And how that effects his hires this year is still unknown. Nothing has changed. His will still governs the team, he still hires his kinds of people and they will continue to stink until they stop the BS they have been doing since he started being hands on with the team.
    • Two or three still plugging away here if they think the coast is clear - like when some writer trolls everybody.  And the 'Carolina ruined him' is something they think they can fall back to as a last resort. ... But it is untrue as well. I couldn't think of how to prove he wasn't but I am not the smartest guy around. I can read though... and I heard a good one from a youtube fan. It was "well, he got ruined after the Green Bay game then, I guess." 13 games of being ruined just to shake it off like it never happened? Right. Nope, not ruined then. So damn, it must have been those final two games and the 2024 training camp that did it? Okay.... 
    • We definitely need 2 backs with Chubba being the #1 back. Brooks should take Sanders job and be that back that gives Chubba a break. Watching Sanders go out there pretty much guarantees that we are going to punt.
