Dude brought receipts, gotta respect that. Never read this one. 

 

Well damn, he did bring receipts. Lol Its interesting he mentioned Tua at the in there and i was watching some highlights of Tua the other day and i gotta say as a big critic of Tua i dont even see Bryce being as good as him. Tua reads the field better, has better mechanics in the pocket and has a pretty good deep ball for his arm strength. For people hoping Bryce could be as good as Tua i dont know if thats saying a lot.

Again I ask.  What makes you think this off season is the one he works on his mechanics?   I mean they are what they are now and God knows how many times I am going to bitch at him hopping in the pocket this season.  He has had elite coaching since 8th grade and this is what he is still doing.

Because it worked for him at every level until this past season. And if he doesn’t he knows he’s reached the end of his career (as a starter at least)

This. Most guys arent just gonna change what has worked for them their whole career especially if they were successful like bryce, in his mind he thinks he can get by in the pros doing the same things.

Beck is my #1 as of today.  The way he played in the second half of the season was masterful.  Just need to see it again.  ewers has mad talent as well but again just need to see it.  Sanders scares the poo out of me for numerous reasons

Would you rather have Beck or try and trade down for a kings ransom?

Nobody still really knows about his future, the NFL is so unpredictable. There's a chance Bryce comes out and has fixed a lot of his mechanics and zips the ball at high accuracy from 10-20 yards. There's a chance he doesn't and he's not the answer. We'll know by October.

Short of taking steroids, he'll never even have an average NFL QB arm strength.  Today's NFL QB's are just built differently and the game is getting faster, you can't get by anymore with a below average arm like Bryce's.

You don't trade away your future to take that QB at #1, that's the QB you sign in the offseason on a 2 year deal to be your gap starter while a young guy sits and learns.

CMC is a nice reference IMO,  because it’s another player where size is in the convo….

CMC showed up jacked and noticeably bigger going into year 2….after he realized he had to change things up at this level.

It is also really hard to change things. Which is why I was really skeptical about his mechanics and such being reworked by the staff. I could help, more likely is a huge can of worms.

      hiring matt rhule and giving him full control was maybe the worst singular decision this franchise has ever made outside of Rae Caruth

      Thielen traded

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      Vikings bring back WR Thielen from Panthers Vikings get: WR Adam Thielen, conditional 2026 seventh-round pick, 2027 fifth-round pick Panthers get: 2026 fifth-round pick, 2027 fourth-round pick Vikings grade: A- Panthers grade: C+ The Vikings have re-united with their longtime receiver Adam Thielen. Assuming the conditions of the 2026 pick headed to Minnesota are met, the Vikings will have moved back two rounds in next year's draft and one round in 2027's draft to acquire the single year remaining on the 35-year-old receiver's contract. This is fine business. The Vikings' receiver depth will be tested early this season, as WR3 speedster Jalen Nailor recovers from a hand injury and WR2 Jordan Addison serves a three-game suspension. Depth receiver Rondale Moore had a season-ending knee injury early this offseason, leaving rookie Tai Felton and veteran Tim Jones as the depth behind Justin Jefferson to start the season. Thielen should slot right into a familiar offense and provide a good safety blanket for young quarterback J.J. McCarthy, who needs strong early performances in September to boost his confidence and generate some positive momentum. I like the deal a lot for that reason: McCarthy won't spend the first three starts of his NFL career endeavoring to make up for bad receiver play. This is actually a bigger risk for the Panthers than it appears. From Week 8 on last season -- the stretch in which quarterback Bryce Young came back and looked solid -- Thielen was the Panthers' best receiver. Sure, guys like Jalen Coker and Ja'Tavion Sanders were having breakout games, and the backs were getting involved as pass catchers, but it was Thielen who drove the ship. Thielen averaged 2.47 yards per route run in that stretch, which was the 14th best number in the NFL. He also caught 80% of his targets when Coker and Xavier Legette caught 63.2% and 56.4%, respectively. Thielen was so valuable that the Panthers gave him a raise in March worth $1.5 million to encourage him to stave off retirement. The drafting of first-round receiver Tetairoa McMillan always foretold a decrease in target share for Thielen. But keeping Thielen around for another year would have helped smooth the transition. Now the Panthers enter the season with a starting receiver trio (McMillan, Coker and Legette) full of big-play potential but no proven chemistry with Young over the middle of the field. That's an important cornerstone of the Panthers' offensive system that needs replacing. -- Solak
