It's weird that a 'qb whisper' has not brought in one guy who could develop. Not even about Bryce just the two other spots he is wasting with nothingness this year. 

I don't understand the QB Whisperer thing. Geno perhaps but that's a wild outlier.

Baker was already a good QB.

I agree but he got lots of praise for Baker when Baker was better with the next guy. Geno was old enough and been around enough to finally overcome his mental issues to become solid.

All I want out of this season is Bryce to show us he's the one or for Bryce to be complete ass and get us a pick that might get us the one. That's it that's all.

Yep, I'm hoping we either HAVE to extend him or we trade him for the best offer, and if none, cut him.

Anything in between is worst case scenario

this article is LOL funny for so many reasons.

They were stalking Rhule after his vacation in his driveway.   Giving Rhule all the leverage

Rhule played us against the giants and they laughed in his face

Hurney and tepper got the used car salesman pitch in Rhules kitchen

We were scheduled to interview Kevin Stefanski but cancelled

 

Goddamn Tepper cannot get out of his own way

Yeah, we've known this for years. Have you missed the years of Hurney meatball jokes on here?

I think you don’t have enough information to come to the conclusions you find yourself at. 

All we have to hang our hats on right now is how we supposedly looked in joint practice and even then our head coach Dave Canales himself expressed concern about conditioning.

If you want to say it's a matter of opinion that's fine. But there is enough information to form a conclusion that this team continually looks mediocre or awful in preseason and then looks awful to start the regular season. And that is regardless of who the head coach is. I certainly strongly hope that they flip a switch and suddenly become a competent team in Jacksonville and Arizona. But I wouldn't bet anything of value on that.

Hard to say. Hurney may have had more sway over Tepper than we think at that stage.

Baker had also already had career success. He wasn't some "find."

Geno I am sure he did help but a lot of that was just simply getting the opportunity again, I am sure.

I’ve mentioned Joe Milton and Shadeur a ton the last few weeks as guys we could’ve had for little cost, but I also want to mention Milroe was also a very viable option I was interested in.  I’m pretty sure I posted it somewhere here.  I had read some stuff from sources I trust that a lot of scouts were saying they felt his only real concern was accuracy and that they felt the causes were fixable, and outside of that, he was the most talented QB in this draft, or something along those lines.

again, it’s why I get pissed off with all the fluff pieces our organization pushes out for certain player because they focus so much on coddling players rather than forcing them to compete.  I honestly feel us not bringing in any competition is two fold, 1) Tepper isn’t ready to admit he made the biggest mistake in #1 overall pick history and 2) They don’t want to hurt Bryce’s feelings or confidence in the hopes that he can be salvaged.  Both are horrible reasons to sit two years with Dalton and Plummer behind him and do nothing to provide a contingency plan or competition.

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

      By lumbeecheraw75 · Posted

      overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.

      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
