Absolutely no one should think this guy is meant to effectively compare to Burns, and if someone does then they're insane. He is meant to provide a portion of that production at a fraction of the cost in combination with a couple more players, and the odds are that most of the end/edge group this year are short-term trials (thus the 2-year contract). That's how it was always planned to play out, and if one of them suddenly develops into something more then that's icing on the cake.

Key here is creating a good enough rotation until we can find the flagship talent at EDGE.
 

The draft isn’t that great for it but there’s some interesting guys. Last year though..ugh Tuli would’ve been a monster in Evero’s defense.

 

Yeah pretty sure Evero has said in the past that he'll send 5/6/7 guys on a blitz if he needs to. Probably the case this coming season.

And who was beside DB most the season? I barely watched lol. Tuttle? A'Shawn should be a little upgrade to what he was working with inside last season

Yeah, if we can sign another pass rusher, we might have a sneaky good defense. Don't tell @rayzor though. I wouldn't want him to give him any false hope. But, yeah, all this was made possible by trading Burns away. There's some irony in there somewhere.

Honestly, if we could get decent center play, we might be ahead of schedule. Everything leads back to Bryce though...

He is Haynes replacement, assuming Haynes is not back--not Burns' replacement.  That is why we are still pursuing Chase and Clowny.  I am guessing it is going to be Clowny, and I am guessing it will be a one-year contract.  Of course, we could whiff on both, and that would necessitate drafting one.  I think we could draft a Sam 0LB and a rush/Jack OLB.

I feel like he is more of a YGM replacement. I think he starts opposite of Young/Clowney/draft pick. He is a big upgrade over YGM and not far from recent Burns when you look at a complete package. If we could sign Chase Young (or Clowney) and Fuller it will set us up nicely in the draft IMO.

    • It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.   
    • Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
