Where are these Debbie Downers coming from?  Are they Cicadas?  You get the best RB in the draft vs. the 10th best CB. I wanted the LB.  However, a RB that can catch better that Chuba, block better than Chuba, and run better than Chuba--behind our new guards---I see it.

 

Let’s be honest, at 39, we had our pick of CBs starting with the 3rd ranked DeJean. We also had the 2nd and 3rd ranked Cs available too.

The 2nd best RB was available at 65. You don’t have to be a Debbie Downer to think that a RB who ended his season with an ACL tear might have not been the best choice. I was fine with the trade down to get the 2025 2nd but a RB in round 2 is not who I would have wanted.

Committee.  Plus before his injury he was putting up better numbers than Bijan. Just saying. The Falcons took Bijan early and we got Brooks a round later. 

All good but until they go through the process it's irrelevant, if course they will start one of them but even that doesn't mean he's #1, that'll all depend on the game plans and how best to Ayan the defense.

I like that he doesn’t have a lot of wear and tear on his body yet since he was behind Johnson and Robinson his first couple seasons. I don’t like that he’s coming off an ACL injury, obviously. Seems like we’re really prepping to install and develop in 2024 and compete in 2025.

After a late night gym workout I'm willing to give this pick a chance. For all we know this dude might be a game changer at RB and another legit weapon for this offense. If he's the best RB I will take the experts word.

 

 

Amazing how a quick workout can change your whole vibe. I left angry at the pick lol. Now I'm cool.

 

The gym does wonders people stay healthy!

He looks like our new feature back than can run through you or around you, has hands, and is a home run threat. His ACL let us steal him where we did honestly.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
