Loved what I saw of him at Virginia.  A much better player to have on the QB depth chart who actually has the physical tools and ability  to develop over time.  Dare I say, even exciting to watch and develop.

curious if this has more to do with Dalton’s injury or Plummer’s sucking.

I mean, it doesn't look bad, but it is concerning it is so short.  Looks like some of those guys weren't even really trying to tackle him.  I don't know how long he will last trying to play like that with some actual hitters out there.

Good luck to him, though.  At least it is something to get excited about.

He's 6'3 214. I mean if people can wonder aloud if 5'9 190 pound Bryce Young will have 15 rushing touchdowns and not even consider he might get laid out sooner or later idk why anyone would be worried about this UDFA. We brought him in as a passer either way. And if you look at the one game he played in the NFL with the Rams three years ago he was anything but efficient in that area. 100 yards 1 TD 2 INT's 56% completion 44 rushing yards. However it looks like he's put in some work since then. At least he's still fairly young and has been through some adversity to prepare him for this team. That's about all we can really say.

He can probably learn 15-20 considering 50% are running plays. That’s enough for a quarter at least. Probably see Plummer in 1-3 and him in 4th. 

For sure.  Hope he gets the 2nd half. Since I torture myself with watching every play of every game, a little juice would be nice.

Funny how you gave Perkins an inch and took one away from Bryce lol

You know how they talk about the speed of the game in the NFL being faster?  Those tacklers looked like they were moving in slow motion.  I just hope dude is prepared for actual impact.

Those stats against the Rams are pretty much what we got from Bryce his first year and a half so anyone complaining about bringing him in to be a back up doesn’t pay attention.

There's a photo of Bryce Young standing next to Kyler Murray. Our guy is not 5'10 just being factual.

At this point we just needed a QB. I feel like he will understand the assignment. Don't suck and don't get hurt.

No complaints here. I'll take anything over the current 2nd and 3rd string. But that's the state of things. It's so pitiful we've got folks basically eating each other here. If you aren't in lockstep with their delusional takes about this offense actually not being dogshit they're on you like a zombie in the walking dead. It's hard times.

Just seems you skewed the numbers on height and weight to fit the narrative.  Update bros Wikipedia page if you are so sure?

They inflate sizes in a lot of sports.  I don't think Young is the only one getting a favorable measurement.

I just hope the guy is ready for the jump.

Trade for Sanders. At least call. The worst they can say is no. I’m guessing some egos are too fragile for that though. 

I'd trade for someone for sure.

Trey Lance maybe? 

Going into the season with just Bryce Young as your QB is suicide.

    • Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others. 
    • I'm excited. I love situations like this when you could potentially find a diamond in the rough on the cheap. And you know guys like this are gonna put in the work and desire way more than others to be great.
