Yeah, when you're having to pitch potential on a COVID bonus year prospect that's a massive red flag. When you didn't show up in college until you were the age of a lot of 2nd or even 3rd year NFL players... uh oh.

Yea, I can see what some people like him for and I can see a world where he ends up being a really good player like a Metcalf light.  But i see a lot more scenarios where his ceiling is a slightly faster Shenault.

To put it into perspective, DJ Johnson is only six months younger than Brian Burns.

Xavier Legette is 15 months older than Jonathan Mingo. He's less than a year younger than Ja'Marr Chase who is going into NFL year 4.

Dammm that's wild he's old and barely shown much one year production mehh. Ladd me because DJ is a deep option with good intermediate separation AT can still get it done hopefully Mingo or TMJ step up leaving room for a quick hitter like Ladd to compliment out other WRs

McConkey and Polk are my #1 and #2.

There's a few good double-dip combinations that could be nice.  Legette would be more palatable with that type of scenario as well.

Could end up with: McConkey/AD Mitchell 33 + Polk/Roman/Legette/Pearsall 39 (maybe even a minor trade down from 39 to the 40s)

Or BPA 33, and this: Polk/Roman/Legette/Pearsall 39 + Malik/Baker/McMillan/Rice later

I'd personally love a scenario where we end up with Ja'Lynn Polk, Trey Benson & Malik Washington somehow.  Those are the dudes I'm all about.

If it somehow fell that way and we did decide to double dip, AD and Ladd would be my dream scenario.   I dont see it ever falling that way and I doubt we double dip but that would still be a dream scenario.

    • 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.
