Is Young the worst #1 pick in NFL history?

When you factor in the cost of the trade... yeah.

Nah, it was the worst pick all on it's own, even before factoring in the trade

Russell is the only one who could compete with it, but at least with him, they took someone with a big arm and some solid physical traits.

It's not even close, Bryce is the biggest bust in NFL draft history, the trade just makes it one of the worst draft picks of all time, of any sport, it's THAT bad

Is it even close? I guess you could argue Jamarcus Russell but at least he had size and a strong arm so you could make a case why he might go that high. Bryce has neither. Historically awful selection. 

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

    • PFF feeds the beast.  So it’s largely popular for that IMO and is embraced by the NFL machine because it helps feed the beast.  Thats why you see the cute stats pop on the Monday Night football screen lol.  Hot takes? Fantasy football? Yeah, it’s good for the NFL machine for lots of reason.  I do think the league embraces them.  Not because they are actually good at doing what they claim. actual analytics folks are critical of PFF.  Because it’s not analytics.  It’s subjective goobly goo ratings by dudes that aren’t really qualified nor even have the info to do real grading.  you got legit NFL players who say they have literally put PFF grades by the coaches grades and they are worlds apart.  Players have laughed at them pretending they can grade certain plays without the underlining info.  NFL coaches have called out there bologna at pressers.   could it be a quick tool to find out some info that has nothing to with their subjective grades? Sure.  There is a lot of data on 32 teams for cheap. But I do not buy the narrative 32 NFL teams think their grades are worth a poo or remotely accurate or meaningful. 
    • Bills D looks like ass
    • I think that win vs Dallas gave them a big boost of confidence.  Thats a team that blew us out the past 2 seasons. Even when Bryce was playing okay late last season they still beat us pretty bad.  Lets see if we slaughter the Jets or go back to playing sloppy uninspired football and go from there.
