Houston talent

Just look at the physical attributes. How many of Houston's big plays could Bryce have actually made? Throwing downfield with defenders in his face. Throwing downfield while being hit. Bryce can't do those things. Everything has to go perfectly for Bryce to be able to effectively throw down the field.

I will happily eat my crow if Bryce looks like his Alabama self next year under another staff but it ain't gonna happen.

Bryce does not have the arm strength or speed that Tua has. Tua is also bigger. 

Tua is 3 years older, not crazy to think he can’t add 10-15lbs over the next few off seasons. I don’t think he will ever be Stroud but I’m still hoping for the best.

So far the people that are coping are the ones trying to make Stroud vs Bryce a thing. Houston is a better team after being in the same spot for the last 3 years as the panthers. Things can change in this league quicker than people think here.

Get the right QB and coach things legit turn overnight.

They were widely panned as one of the worst rosters top down for 2 years straight. 

Just call it what it is.

Caserio has built an incredible team, they found an incredible QB, and they absolutely nailed the HC hire.  

It can be all of the above.  

Thank you! Stroud can be great AND they have built a solid roster with solid coaching. Both can be and are true.

It is obvious that Houston has so much better talent than the Panthers.  Tight end’s that have speed.  Wide receivers that can get open. 

Of course they are way better top to bottom in the organization.  Thinking Stroud comes here and does this in Carolina this year is asinine

I think you’re talking to yourself. No worries, psychosis is only when you respond.

So far the people that are coping are the ones trying to make Manning vs Leaf a thing. Indianapolis is a better team after being in the same spot for the last 3 years as the Chargers. Things can change in this league quicker than people think here.

Im not buying the muscle takes for the simple fact that why didn't he do that in college if he knew he was nfl bound? Bryce looks like he hates the weight room and he clearly didnt like adding on that weight to silence the critics for the draft.

    • overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.
    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
