A mid round flyer qb is a wasted pick 99 out of every 100 picks. It’s the single worst investment in a draft pick. Case in point, people wanted to take Hooker in the 3rd round and now we have him on our PS

To be fair, he was coming off a major injury and the reason he wasn't taken higher.  Any team that drafted him knew it was essentially a redshirt season as he came back from surgery.

It is if you have a decent starting QB on your roster. Most late round picks end up gone in a year or two anyway. Sometimes you may get lucky. That can’t happen if you don’t even try.

We spent a second rounder on an Injured running back who’s played like 3 snaps for us and then gave the current starter a massive extension, signed another in FA, then spent a 4th rounder on another one.

This front office clearly has no problem with “waste”

We should've brought in someone like Jameis or Howell. Someone who has shown they can put up numbers but have struggled with turnovers. If Bryce struggles, you can play them and more fairly evaluate the rest of your offensive talent positions and if they clean up their turnover issues maybe you aren't absolutely desperate for QB in the draft. If they don't you're gonna keep losing anyway so whatever.

Why waste a draft pick on a flyer when we have all the holes this roster has?

Either Bryce wins or he gets us a high draft pick.

Look at it as an investment in Bryce if you want. Competition breeds excellence. Let the best man win idc when you were drafted.

If Bryce doesn’t step up cut ties and move on.

Instead we got to see Bryce poo the bed in the opener for the 3rd year in a row.

Or you know make the struggling player actually earn the starting role and C on his chest in camp like everyone else.

step up like the last 10 games or step up to a top 10 qb for the year.

 

If he plays like he did the last 10 games I would still cut ties with him.  You are perpetually having to work against his flaws. Height, strength mechanics etc.  Just not worth it

    • They still make all the major personale decisions during the off-season. Especially during the draft and early free agency. 
    • Fine.  It's his 3rd season which makes his progress and mental fortitude even more impressive after overcoming one of the worst situations to be in starting your NFL career. If the hard takes on Bryce were not filled with so much hyperbole, assumptions and outright lies it wouldn't annoy me so much. Bryce can't throw downfield. He threw it fine downfield to Legette on that deep shot he dropped last year. He threw it fine downfield to T-Mac sunday who proceeded to drop the pass. Bryce is too small. Boy takes a beating before we invested in the offensive line and so far he'd held up physically with no issues. Bryce is too short. The majority of his throws are over the middle which would be the most difficult routes for a shorter QB to see.  He doesn't get balls batted down more than any taller QB's. Bryce is too slow. Last year he ran for 6 TD's and 249 yards.  That ability is a real weapon. Most of the takes around here are of the "Omergaud, he suks" variety with little actual insight.  If a guy is able to play and win multiple NFL games he has to have some talent and ability and if a person continues to say there is no redeeming qualities and you can't tell me what he is good at as well as what he's bad at, then you're not being honest, realistic or genuine.  You're being a fool.
    • CSW might be the best pick of the group, and I see his ceiling as solid.  I’d say Munnerlyn is a good comp, but Munnerlyn actually was very good in his role. The more I see of Sanders, the more he feels like the new Ian Thomas.  But can’t make a definitive assessment on that until he plays with a good QB.
