And of those 62, 10 (17%) were from Alabama. 

Yeah, it is top heavy representation more concentrated in the top tier schools. 
 

Vanderbilt, I listed as having no one drafted. So we know their defense had no draftees. 
But I didn’t find a list that broke it down for offense and defense. A team could have a couple guys drafted, from the offense. No way to know without combing through depth charts and draft results. So no thanks. 
 

Basically, the numbers would split out to around 4 guys per team.  But as you pointed out, 17% were on one team. Then what about Georgia? LSU usually has a few. That leaves fewer spread through the rest of the conference.

School  Players Drafted
Alabama 10
Georgia 10
Florida 6
LSU 6
Tennessee 5
Auburn 5
South Carolina 5
Ole Miss 4
Kentucky 3
Texas A&M 3
Arkansas 2
Mississippi State 2

 

So 2 of the 16 SEC schools represent 1/3 of the players drafted in the 2023 draft from the conference. That's a high concentration of talent in 2 places. So assuming he's facing 1 to 2 NFL draft caliber players, he's also playing with 4 others on offense, plus 5 on defense, not counting the other classes, averaged. He definitely had it easier playing at Bama than "Playing in the SEC" would suggest.

At the end of the day, Young doesn’t offer enough to make up for the limited scheme he requires. He’d have to be laser accurate and make little to no mistakes to dink-and-dunk 50 times a game and win consistently at this level.

What’s worse is that even when it all goes to plan that’s a lot of hospital balls shortening the career of the recievers. I felt bad for Sanders and Renfrow in week 2. 

Nice drives every now and then aren’t going to cut it. Every guy we’ve trotted out there since Cam has been able to impress in spurts.  If Young can’t do that consistently and prevents us from having a deep ball what are we doing?

And the crazy thing is, there have been guys that have done it at his size.  Flutie and Russ are the first that come to mind.  He just doesn’t have the physical ability to PASS the fuging ball where it needs to go, nor the ability to escape pressure on any meaningful snaps.

Yeah I didn’t remember how many guys were on offense besides him that were taken but did figure he was facing one, maybe two guys that would be drafted from whatever defense it he was playing. Then the out of conference games against smaller schools that are basically exhibitions, sheesh, you know they can feast. 
 

The other thing is, out of those 62, how many really had NFL bodies at that point? Few of them. Most will be different players after a year of NFL training and body development. So you have to think about what the difference is. Even with the SEC guys that got taken, they will be better in the pros too. So when you factor all that in, and look at the Bryce tape and the Bryce pro day and whatever, I just will never understand why.

Anyone catch Adam archuletta referring to him as a “young qb”

like bitch this is year three players are in the Super Bowl by now. 

It's early and he's got time until he doesn't.  It's just absurd at this point.  One day in the near future he'll be done in the NFL.  And everyone will talk about it in retrospect like they knew he was a bust.

It's only week 3. Still lots of football to be played.

Superbowl is still very much possible.

Yes, yes, tell the other team to soft play zone all game and tell Bryce the refs spotted them 21 points and that the NFL made a change calling the entire game the 4th quarter.   Then, we should be just dandy!
