I am pretty skeptical of him getting a big paycheck. I suspect the Huddle is going to find out that the league as a whole doesn't view him quite the same way we do.

He is definitely better than Yosh Nijman but I remember all the glowing things said about his ability to play(some predicting he would start here lol) and he was easily the worst offensive lineman on the roster by a pretty substantial margin.

8 million per is our friendly bet. I know campy thought highly of him and even called him one of the best players on the team. He and others talk to scouts/GMs/presid/etc. The FA class is weak and he's shown LT, OGs and even C with good play levels. 

I think some team with space and a need at OT, with drop him a offer above 8milion.  Some zone blocking team would love him at either OG too and hunt got 20 million this past year. 

I think Nijman is like a 50/50 cut, like if you are right and christ market is cold.....Dan could cut yoshi and pay BC a similar contract. I'd love to keep him, but I put it at a 2% chance he's here in 25. He has great 2022 tape along with starts across the line.

Not that I am advocating paying him ( I don't focus much on cap space unless its a crazy contract ). Would it be advisable to pay him now to keep him on the roster to replace Moton after next year? It would hurt to lose a capable linemen who we know works for us. Just a thought. What's the huddle think?

He's going to get paid somewhere and be offered a starting spot, he's gone.

I’m not so sure about that. We tend to overrate our guys. I don’t blame him for taking as much as he can get but that article says nothing about him having a ton of interest. It’s basically from his side and likely his agent trying to drum up interest in him.

All that said, this is another example of us being bad drafters. We take project WRs over solid to stud OL and long snappers/tiny QBs over day 3 OL that have started elsewhere. Now that we have a ton of day 3 picks we better be shooting tons of shots at lineman, O or D.

Seems like people have forgotten, Brady C is only 2 years younger than Taylor Moton.

He will be 29 this autumn, Moton will be 31.

If we want to look at the future after Moton, BC is not the one.

Yeah, the idea that he is going to be a highly sought after starter is pretty ridiculous, IMO. If he truly were that guy we would have had people beating down our doors to trade for him over the course of his career here. 

He is a very solid backup OL that can play at a league average or slightly better level at multiple spots. That's definitely valuable but it isn't suddenly becoming a top shelf starter in the NFL.

I don't think anyone is saying that. Being given a starting opportunity is not the same thing as suddenly becoming top shelf.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
