I am going to say most of the top QB prospects are freaks to some degree. Pretty sure you don't want 'not a freak'.

Also just want to say, talk about defending every blade of grass, you might be playing against Mike Vick. 

And you'd better spy him so that takes another guy out of coverage.

And we thought he was small I think. He had those 'break me' little thin ankles that those fast people tend to have. 

I hated that guy. 

edit: and to parlay on to this, I am pretty sure Vick was one of the very few successful trading up high for a QB guys.

edit again: yeah he needed spying on so much that we took a guy 14th overall just to do that.

Yeah there's plenty of others, I was just giving Tr3ach a clip of the throw he was trying to remember. Unfortunately NFL is now cracking down on Twitter videos now that Musk monetized it so it's getting harder to find clips that will play embedded in the browser, any video stamped official NFL opens an X browser or takes you to the app now 

Good take with a bad video to match it. X stinks now which is saying a lot vs the Twitter standard pre-Musk. No worries here but I thought it was funny you showed 1 video out of many that didn't help prove your point.

vick was a freak; that's the point.

i've had masters level gross anatomy i can explain the concept of muscle insertion points and shoulder capsules to you at another time, if you'd like.

one of my favorite pieces of sports trivia is that vick was the number 2 highschool recruit coming out of virginia. the guy ahead of him was considered by many to be the biggest high school recruit of all time. without looking, who can remember who that was?

Ronald Curry. That Achilles ruptured completely changed him as an athlete. He was the #1 ranked recruit in football and basketball. Won the McD AA dunk contest and I can't recall him ever dunking a ball in college. Achilles tears eventually ended his NFL career where he actually became a pretty good WR and had one of the best TD catches o can recall. I think he ended up having three total Achilles tears. Speaking of anatomy, something had to be going on there.

Played at UNC with Peppers.

And don't touch him along the sidelines or that's another 15 yards. Vick put you in an awful spot as a defender. He could tightrope that sideline and if you pulled up he'd squirt down the field staying in bounds but if you committed to the hit he'd step out of bounds and get 15 more anyway.

peppers knew how to deal with that bullshit. rodgers had pulled it earlier in the game

      I get it's subjective and I said "PFF rated him as" one of the top deep ball passers during that time, which is an accurate statement.  They are still a group of professionals that look at film and data in order to make their judgements/ratings.  These people whose data has been incorporated into a lot of teams' staffs view Bryce's deep throws as some of the best in the league during that stretch.  That tells me that he can probably throw a deep pass vs the Huddle's version of he is small and didn't do it his rookie year so he must not be able to.  That and literally seeing him do it just makes me feel he is more than capable of doing so.   Do you think PFF is skewing their opinion to prop up a QB in a bottom tier franchise?  It's just another group's opinion and I feel is pretty respected around the league currently.  It's not the gospel truth or anything.

      I still remember how happy I was that gettlegut was not the GM once he picked Jones, that was a firing pick and well..... If not for the raiders drafting Clelin Ferrell, it was the biggest draft day mistake in the last 20 some years.

      He had 251 passing yards. 3 passing touchdowns and 2 rushing touchdowns. All in all a very impressive game. Problem is I do not envision his rushing ability translating like that over the course of the upcoming season. Yeah it will be something to account for from time to time but one it's not sustainable and two you don't want to put his durability to the ultimate test against a motivated defender willing to take a penalty and a fine. And plus with our backfield. Two 1k yard rushers. That's what they're here for. Then we have a much improved WR room. That means Bryce has to elevate those passing numbers substantially. The fact of the matter is regardless of circumstances it did take him 23 games to surpass Kyle Allen's single season passing yardage from 13 games in 2020. And that is not a high bar by any means. Whatever QB tier Bryce ends up in from here amongst his peers this upcoming season when it's all said and done it will be with his arm.
