Jay Gruden on Bryce Young: He looks small and plays small

After whiffing so hard on the Young pick if we have the 1st overall pick again my guess is they go with the more traditional pocket passer in Beck this time over the playmaking Ward due to the Young/Stroud disaster. 

Beck is no Stroud and Ward’s playmaking skills would actually translate to the NFL

You know it! Ward is my guy so far

Am i the only one that things his problems have been more mental than physical

it looks like the game is being played faster than he plays

until last year he has been the best QB for his age pretty much his whole life, maybe im naive but I dont think all of a sudden he’s too small to compete. He was small for a high school QB and he was small for a college QB too

Not saying you are wrong. 

The all of a sudden thing, you said it yourself. Until last year. 

Like in the SEC the typical DE was big and fast. NFL will cull most of them. What is left is bigger tougher better and just as fast or faster.

Ever hear of the Peter Principle? If not, basically you do well and move up. You will keep moving up until it gets too hard for you. Then, you don't move up any more because the job requires all of your abilities and you no longer are top dog. That is a loose interpretation.

Reminds me of Mike Evans.

As an Arizona alum who has watched all his games, I've always seen AJ Green when I watch him play, also a more similar slimmer body type than the thicker Evans

Most of the draft profile comps I've seen have been Mike Evans though, so what do I know, lol

Trade down to collect picks but stay inside the Top 10 to be able to grab Tetairoa McMillan

My literal dream scenario, he's going to be a STUD in this league, I'd be ordering that authentic jersey so fast

Yeah Tmac looks like a stud he had a hell of a game vs Northern Arizona last week a scorching 2 catches for 11 yards!

Imagine walking in a room with Stroud/AR/Levis/Bryce and leaving that room thinking the small midget is the right guy to lead your franchise.

 

Tepper is a fuggin joke!

Was Bryce hurt during the combine? If not, he was the only one who did not participate, which to me, unless he was injured, is odd.

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • 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.
