Also from PFF:

PICK NO. 1: CAROLINA PANTHERS: QB BRYCE YOUNG
Overall Rookie Grade: 55.6 (Rank: 6/6)
Principal Opponent: N/A
Week 16 Snaps: 66
Week 16 Grade: 82.0

For the second straight week, Young saved his best for last. He just narrowly missed his second consecutive victory but tallied 300 passing yards for the first time in his career. It was also his first game with three big-time throws. Young posted a 97.6 overall grade in the fourth quarter against Green Bay, which stands as the second-best quarter by any quarterback this year. Despite all the turmoil around him, it’s encouraging to see Young put forth back-to-back productive efforts.

Honestly the last two weeks have given reason for excitement. He does need to keep this going, and fug would I be pumped if he finished the season on a tear, but let's not get too far ahead of ourselves just yet. Either way, I think we saw glimpses of why he was a first round QB pick the last two weeks (and honestly, he's had some plays earlier where we did too).

It is completely possible there were too many voices in his hand and he was listening to too many different people and not focusing on enough on any one thing. I hope that was it.

Footwork is still a major concern, but footwork IS fixable.

It didn't hurt to be facing the leagues worst secondary. 

IDC, I will take it either way.

If nothing else maybe this will be a collective boost of confidence.

The Packers aren't actually THE worst secondary. They're one of about a dozen teams with a bad passing defense... I don't even know if they're the worst secondary we've faced yet..

Wonder what that Rank 6/6 means... 6/6 out of all rookie QBs? If so how is AR15 ahead of him lol

6/6 of graded rookie QBs on the year overall. AR is on the link, he's not part of the 6/6 as he was out in week 5. The other QBs aren't in the first round I think and I don't pay for PFF, so not sure who all qualifies.

I am a little confused how BY has an 84+ grade the last two weeks (for reference, CJ is at 82 all season) when I thought he was 79 last week and he's 82 this week...?  Who knows, PFF has so many different stats for players I don't try to figure out where their numbers actually come from week to week without a subscription lol

So we like PFF this week then? It seems to vary from moment to moment.

I think we like when media sources say nice things about our players.  Especially in such a shitty situation

I don't put much stock in their individual numbers week to week, but it's nice when a player is recognized by a media outlet that had been pretty harsh on him (understandably) for playing pretty well.

Just like most else in sports media, it means basically nothing but it's fun to talk about.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.

      The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
