Is Young the worst #1 pick in NFL history?

Objectively speaking, the answer is without a doubt a resounding yes. Anyone who doesn't think so is grossly uninformed, or delusional, or just trolling.

He should have been a day two or three afterthought. A flyer. That is all he was worth. 
I took him off my board no lie. 
 

edit: okay that was a lie.  I didn’t have a board. But he would have never made it to it if I did.

 By a wide margin.  He's not just the worst #1 pick, he's the worst QB I have ever seen.

I got dunked on last year for asking if this was the worst trade of all time. It's already bad. And the funny thing is it's not done yet. We STILL have a second round pick coming up that we gave up for Bryce. 

I was with you. I laid out in detail how bad trading up was for the team and that drafting a 1st round champion QB to build around is a rarity. Only contending teams can afford to plug and play 1st round QBs.

Bryce is definitely the worst QB value taken at #1 in the modern draft. JaMarcus Russell was likely worse as a QB.

I'm just stunned that he's somehow regressed from last season.  He can barely complete a downfield pass other than a quick slant to Thielen.  

There is no way he's making it through this season.  We are done here.

Oakland was 2-14 in 2006, earning the first pick in the 2007 draft. Thus, they gave nothing away to get Russell. The Panthers traded the ninth pick in the 2023 draft AND their best receiver, D.J. Moore to get Young.

WOW!

Clearly the worst piick in NFL history. 

And passed on Stroud.

Jamarcus is better in every category. Wins, TDS, Yards. Bryce looks like a 7th grader.

Yes.  I'd also like it noted that I'd pay a significant amount money to never see Bryce Young and his stupid hair ever again. 

[SmokinwithWilly]

And people here thought we overpaid for Darnold.

Man I saw this coming from a million miles away. The only reason this kid was even relevant at the college level was because of the receivers and backs he threw the ball to at Alabama. We were loaded the 2 years Bryce started and he still couldn’t win a national championship. The only reason is arm strength the 2 years he started at Bama his completion percentage for balls thrown farther than 20 yards down the field was awful. Defenses we plaid usually would not put a safety much deeper than 10 yards because they knew there was no threat of a deep ball. I was never a fan

As it sits rightnow, he's the worse ever! I was done when he had to hop throw it.. that was my boiling point.
