Man, that one throwing angle where everyone got excited that he got beefed up seems like it was just a weird angle. Right at the start his right arm is very visible to the left of the kid and he does not look bulked up at all.

He has often gotten compared to Brees and while QBs aren’t bulked up like other positions, Brees looks way bigger in the picture below than Young above. Damn miracle that our OL didn’t get him killed last year.

I mean if you’re gonna point that out, you have to give Bryce 5 years on because that’s how long Drew was in the league before he went to NO.

Still looks bigger with the Chargers. Again, I don’t want a huge QB that can’t throw the ball at all but he looks like he hasn’t gotten stronger at all since last year.

It's not the angle. It's a laughably bad photoshopped photo, and so many Bryce boys thirsty for copium fell for it. Bryce hasn't bulked up at all. He still looks like an amateur golfer.

I never comment on Youngs size b/c I could care less if he made all the reads and throws but from the twitter videos is crazy how not only is he shorter but his frame is just so small.  All the other shorter qbs have all had thicker more muscular frames that were successful.  or incredibly fast like Vick

As i have said before...i still think it was insane that this guy was considered the best player in a draft by experts.

Yeah that was my thing. What is special? Above average? Only thing that could be legit special is something we can’t see. 

He not special in any way, physically, relative to NFL special. That does not add up to that level investment to me, not close. I know I said third round ands maybe not with the over valuing of QBs but that guy just is not a player you assign that value to before he has ever played an NFL down. I need to see him vs NFL players before I do that. My thinking pre draft.

Yeah, hindsight seems so ridiculously obvious. Trying not to beat a dead horse because we of course fell for it, but you truly can’t get how we missed all the red flags. His deep ball stats. His size, not just height but eye level and body. His lack of running ability. His arm strength. His footwork.

It’s insane that we truly felt he had such a super processor that it would overcome the litany of physical question marks. For the amount we traded away, truly mind boggling. Then again Fitterer was unbelievably bad and incorrect in almost every decision.

Tepper is into analytics and fell in love with that. Remember the S2 nonsense. Stroud scored low and Young scored high. 
Stroud was like “I am not a test taker, I’m a football player”.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By strato · Posted

      I was watching a YouTube and it was said that scout and GM insider types were saying the NIL had killed rounds 4-7. I don’t know that I buy it, seems like it might for a year or maybe two but then those guys have to move on.  NCAA is apparently about to give 5 years of eligibility. It is gonna skew those entrants older maybe.

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that.

      I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
