No it isn’t.  At all.  In a good environment with a solid culture he dominated.  He wasn’t just ok…he dominated.  You are so wrong and uneducated 

By that rational, why even look at college tape? High school or pop warner should be enough because the level of competition is irrelevant. How can anyone be a bust in the NFL when they dominated in college? It’s impossible.

It really is irrelevant. The list of great college players who don't pan out in the NFL is long indeed. After draft day your college play becomes irrelevant.

I didn’t have a problem with him when he was hired. I just want someone competent. It’s obvious now that he doesn’t know how to adapt to his teams strengths and weaknesses. He’s a stick in the mud my way only kind of guy. However, he wanted Stroud because he fit his system and we gave him Bryce who didn’t. I’m struggling to picture Bryce in any system and don’t know why any coach would want to work with him. 

The problem is a lot of players didnt fit his system. Not just Bryce.

Andrew Luck had his best season as a professional with Reich. Luck passed for 4,593 yards, threw 39 touchdowns, and 15 interceptions. Philip Rivers passed for 4,169 yards, threw 24 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions. Carson Wentz passed for 3,563 yards, threw 27 touchdowns, and 7 interceptions.

Another thread full of poo talking instead of trying to have a football conversation.

 

Most posters never tried to answer the original question, just turned it into another Bryce trolling fest.  

 

Isn't that exhausting?

 

OP, my answer is WR.    They can stretch the field and help prevent 10 man boxes.  It makes the entire offense better.  (incoming post by trolls about Bryce can't throw deep, blah blah blah).

I don't think it's fair to cast a rash judgement of Bryce being a bust forever.  This offense is a poo show.  Bryce has gotten worse and is developing bad habits.  Bryce is making too many mistakes.

There's not shortage of criticism, no shortage of viable reasons to call him bust worthy, but I don't think it's right to roll a rookie this quickly.  Some of y'all feel strongly otherwise, and that's fine for you.

Bryce needs an outlet.  Would Mahommes be as good without Kelce?  What about Cam without Olsen?  Brees had Jimmy Graham for his prime years.  When you look at many good QBs, you see they have a play maker who they can get the ball to when they need it.  I think Cam called it HBO (help a brother out).  

The offensive scheme is utter garbage.  The oline can't pass block well.  While they ran block very well, when it was time to pass the ball, they were embarrassed.  We don't have a good WR right now.  How well can they be judged in this poo scheme?  Our RBs looks like RBs, nothing special.  I love how hard Chubba is running right now, but he's replicable.  The QB is being asked to do more with less than most QBs in the league.  Consider as well Bryce's physical limitations.  He's not a physical freak like Cam was, nor does he have the ideal build to truck a LB.  He's a small guy, but the NFL was willing to bet on him to be the outlier that makes it.  

How do we help Bryce's development?  Get him an outlet.  Is it a TE a la Olsen?  A WR like how the Bills got Diggs for Allen?  Bryce doesn't have anyone he can ask to bail him out.  Theilen is too old at this point.  You can't change the past, and we HAVE to get Bryce some help from a system perspective as well as an outlet who can be open.

Whichever you think will develop. I've seen a lot of top end tight end talent not pan out over the years. In my opinion as long as you need one you should take a shot in the mid rounds unless you feel there's a sure thing, I don't mean one of these combine warriors that always shoots up the boards.

Bryce can’t throw deep or hit wide open receivers.

Most rookie quarterbacks have the arm strength to throw over the middle of the field. 

Eh, actually it's the sidelines where he struggles; it take more arm strength to hit those passes.  That's the reason Bryce likes in-breaking routes and also the reason DBs jump his throws...because everyone knows this.

    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
    • Sanders is with Tom Brady brand and that's his mentor. The Raiders owner was with Sanders taking pics at a Vegas game together.   It doesn't take much to connect the dots that Vegas will be interested in Sanders as their franchise QB. Oh yeah and guess who hasa small ownership stake in the Raiders Tom Brady.   I guess this is just another made up Madden idea by me huh?
    • Bro I don't mind debating you, but did you really have to write all that to get your point across.   This isn't Madden. If you have the #1 pick you literally control your own destiny. If nobody wants to trade which I have a hard time believing they won't then you obviously take the best QB.   I think we will have suitors. If that's Madden then so be it.
