This team needs SO much, desperately needs a huge infusion of talent

So... no matter how bad these upcoming QB prospects are... hype them to the absolute stratosphere to the media. Hell, hire a PR team to hype them up 24/7.

Then sell the pick for some massive trade offer to some dumb team that buys the hype. BPA, BPA and BPA some more. Stack the team with talent.

My issue wasn’t necessarily the height, but his happy feet in the pocket. He plays like he doesn’t trust the line at all and it leads to sacks. 
 

second issue was arm strength 

 

third was his playing weight. 
 

why I had him ranked behind AR and Stroud and had him ranked similarly to Levis. 

I had numerous issues I talked about to the gleeful mocking of many leading up to the draft. The obvious size issues. The arm strength issue. The lack of plays in his film that translated to the NFL in that he usually had a ton of room in front of him and wide open receivers. His passes were rarely pinpoint accurate. He needed a virtual runway to step up into to generate velocity. I mean, all of it was so obvious in the college play but everyone got caught up in this super football wizkid storyline that they convinced themselves none of it mattered and he'd find a way to make it work anyway.

Virtually all of them were saying Bryce too. Never understood it. Like how can everyone collectively just completely ignore all of the glaring physical limitations? None of them would've been stuck on for a 240 pound or a 5'8" WR who ran a 4.8. So why did they do that for Bryce Young?

Every so often, you get a train wreck of analysis. Teams, despite being multi million (billion) operations, can't reinvent the wheel. They occasionally forget this.

Occasionally someone comes along who breaks the mold but they're almost always mid to late round picks. They found a way to overcome their limitations but they were drafted accordingly. You don't see guys with such glaring limitations go in the 1st round much less #1 overall.

We already have 10 picks. We gonna trade down and draft more? We better be trading back up at some point if that's the case. 

We need to manuever to get as many in the top 100 as possible. 

trade down a handful of spots for an extra 2nd and future 1st, absolutely.

with the amount of needs and overall lack of talent, taking that 100 times out of 100

      Statistical reasons to Scratch Ickey from returning as a LT--Even in 2027

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      While I really hope things pan out for the young man, sometimes you've got to make a calculated guess on your returns. I wanted so bad to see us use our first round pick on a LB, C or TE this season, but I think this one injury changes everything. I might suggest taking the best and the second best OTs available in the draft with our first and second round picks. The injury to Icky really makes the first one a good choice and an affordable one. And Moton, who is long in the tooth, needs someone in the wings behind him.  This also means that BC is going to need to get a contract for this upcoming season both as a starter at LT and to train the younger player behind him. Also it means that we need to extend a solid contract to Cade Mays and lock him down as our Center for the next four years. Maybe Icky can recover fully and be a starting LT again, but the odds aren't in his favor. Maybe he could be back in line to play as a guard right as our current starters' contracts wind down. It's not pretty having to spend all your picks and money on the line, but it seems to be the wise investment in light of everything.

      Unfortunate situation.  if one of the top LTs fall in the draft I think it’s a no brainer draft pick. Then if icky returns he can move to guard and replace one of our highly paid guards that are here now.

      I dont really expect anyone to have any character or values when the system doesn't. I would respect those who did though. College Football is losing what little interest I had in it. I wasn't against giving the athletes some control but whatever this system is will kill it over time.
