He looks like a top 5 guy for sure from what I have seen.  Very impressive.  Size speed hands looks to have it all

Just saw The Athletic's latest mock has T-Mac going #6 and then we take Burden at #7

I honestly think I'd cry if he gets taken one pick before us and then we also end up taking a WR as well, worst case scenario.  And I thought I was mad when Sewell got taken by the Lions one pick before us a few years back, this would dwarf that feeling if it happened, haha

So after hearing all the Cam Ward hype, I went and looked uo highlights last week and passed the eye test, big time.  I thought, "we might have something."  So I was intent in watching the game tonight to see what kind of impression he'd make...  and ooowee mayne...  I'm out.  🤣

He has an NFL arm but I’m not sure if he will succeed in the NFL.  Seems too raw to be drafted really early and play immediately.  I really don’t like how he gets rid of the ball at any cost while being sacked.  Most of the time that’s not worth it.

I was thinking he was just having a rough night even if I was unimpressed for most of the game, but then when he ran all the way to the eight sideline and then threw uo what was essentially a punt back to the far left, which I believe they ran back for a pick 6...  bro, that's a fuging peewee level mistake.

  You left to early. Three late tds to come back from a 20 point deficit.  Ward had his best game of the year.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
