Just how bad was Bryce Young?

I never expected much out of Collins. Weinke was the one that broke my heart. There is zero reason he shouldn't have had an awesome career. 

Remember, the knock on Weinke was his age.  Played baseball a couple years I believe.  I never could understand how he didn't make it.  He's now a really successful QB trainer apparently.

Cam Newton worked w/ Weinke at IMG leading into his 2011 rookie season

I must be honest I see Zach Wilson when I watch Bryce play QB

He spent 6 years playing AAA baseball. Heisman at 28. He couldn't play under center well and he was most comfortable in shotgun if I remember correctly. The mental part of the NFL game was his biggest weakness...again if I remember correctly. 

He is coaching at GT as a QB coach and was working as a QB trainer for some company years ago.

Yup. Weinke has it physically and between the ears. He is or was QB mentoring for a while. His failure to translate that to the league still baffles me.

Yup I was on the Stroud camp. If you watched the actual tape and didn't listen to hype, Stroud was the guy. People knocked him for not having "pocket escape magic" or whatever. That really doesn't matter when you can throw a dime through a quarter hole whenever you want.

 

But we have what we have now. I guess see what the kid (BY) has. Just unfortunate if Stroud turns out to be a generational talent. That would be the pick that lives in infamay for 100 years if it turns that way.

Nowhere near the same arm talent.

His college tape is now inconsequential.   It has no meaning and serves no purpose.  There are now 16 games of film on Young at the nfl level.  Clinging to what he did in college at the best program in the country is moronic at this point

I mean, if Bryce Young played at BYU.....Bryce likely isn't the #1 overall pick.  Bryce had the best roster in college football to aid him.

you don't think Zach Wilson (who still went #2 overall) would have had an even better college resume playing at Bama vs BYU?
