he was drafted amongst players ranked in the mid to upper 6's.

why didn't we wait until the 4th or even 5th? why give up a second round pick for a 4.2 graded player?

i see his potential. i understand why we have him and think he'll be able to contribute but giving up a second round pick where we could get a player graded in the mid to upper 7's next year, to move up to take a player graded 4.2 this year just seems a little wacky!

i'd rather have the top DT or DB available at the time than have a guy to run gimmick wildcard plays.

dude please. why must we go through this. hes listed as a 4.2 as a QB. hes NOT playing QB. so thats your first problem. second problem is, we picked mid 4th round, and there was no guarantee he would have fell to us. sometimes i think some of you look for something to complain about. its not that bad a move.

i agree. He has natural play-making ability and is a specialist/hybrid type (which we needed). I think its a solid move. Our FO is showing us the confidence they have in this kid by doing this.

okay so do you think that Edwards is better than a player we would have gotten in the second next year? Anyone that argues that we couldnt have gotten a better player with next years 2 is delusional. One of the drawbacks of having a coach without a longterm contract is that the interest of management and the organization are not the same. this trade is good for Fox/Hurney but bad for the organization in the long run.

how the HELL do you know whats good or bad for this organization in the long run. for crying out loud we don't have a second round pick. So damn what! i so sick of all the crying. we dont even know what he can do. as much as he can suck, he can also end up being the best slot receiver in the league. we dont know, but im not going to sit here and piss on what fox/hurney did. its ridiculous. let the kid get on the field, then whine

Depends on where were picking next year, how good armanti is. Who would be left where we pick next year in the second........Lots of variables there. Say if Armanti catches 300 yards of passes, rushes for 100 and has 2200 yards total counting PR & KR with 4-5 Td's....I'd say no....

So no definite answer on that question. Most likely though, I'd say yes.

      Bryce is elite at deep throws

      By beckersteen · Posted

      We had a QB who could do that and its the last time we went to the Super Bowl and the only time we had an MVP. Once he lost his ability to do that he was out of the league. To filter out insignificant stats I will only look at QBs who have played in 10 or more games this year. There are 28 qualifying QBs. Bryce is 25th in Air Yards per Attempt at 6.4. Only Joe Flacco, Cam Ward, and Dillon Gabriel are worse (6.0, 5.8, 5.1). Trevor Lawrence, Patrick Mahomes, and CJ Stroud are the median QBs at 7.1. Drake Maye and Sam Darnold lead the league at 8.7. Bryce is 18th in the league for passes that travel 30+ yards at 12. The median is Caleb Williams at 15. The league leader is Matthew Stafford with 26. With passes that travel 40+ yards, Bryce is tied with three others at 21st in the league with 3. Only Jacoby Brissett, Cam Ward, Joe Flacco, and Dillon Gabriel are worse. The median is a three-way tie with Drake Maye, Trevor Lawrence, and Baker Mayfield with 6. The league leader is Sam Darnold with 12. Having the ability to complete passes down the field (not YAC) stretches the defense and makes them account for more ground. It keeps players out of the box and keeps formations in nickel or dime, less line backers for your RBs to worry about. Bryce is why we have 2 losses against the Saints. If he had the outright ability to sling the football down field we beat the easily, but he doesn't. So they crowded the box and our 2 starting caliber RBs with our top ~10 Oline couldn't carry the offense to a win on their own. The limitations of the offense fall squarely on Bryce.

      Bryce’s deep passes are intermediate passes for other strong armed QBs. I will say that Bryce’s accuracy on his deep passes have improved. Before they would just sail out of bounds. Now the WR actually has a fighting chance on the ball.
