Here is the new narrative ladies and gentlemen

Things like that go beyond difference of opinion. It's simply living in an alternate reality from the rest of us.

Nah. He definitely isn't. There are some really massive ones.

He will likely go down as a top mention in terms of QB busts.

Who is a bigger bust than Bryce Young? Who???

For the aggregate cost paid vs value gained, he is, by far and away, the biggest draft bust in maybe the history of sports.

I guess. For me I am a layman football scouting wise. I know nothing really. But just 10 minutes of critically looking at Young via videos showed it to me. 

I don’t think Leaf, for instance, would have been easy that way. He had the prototypical stuff. To know he would bust, you’d have to have the skill to dissect his mental potholes. And probably some one on one time with him. 

Some of that stuff shows itself along the way. That is not doing your due dilligence during the process. Being a nutter should have raised it's ugly head. But, that relies on people around him telling you the full story too.

I looked at a few. RGIII trade up(2 to 6) was for an additional 2 firsts and a second. That's fuging insane.

Brock Purdy erases the gigantic Trey Lance in a way it probably shouldn't.   Talk about a horseshoe up that front office's backside. 

3 first round picks and a 3rd I think is what Trey Lance cost. 

but credit them as well for not getting bogged down in their mistake and sticking with it.

That is a swap included, though. So the RGIII is a little bit worse. 

I think there are more of these disastrously bad trade ups than we realize, because it isn't happening to us like Bryce did.

RG3 at least gave Washington a season of hope and joy.  As a rookie he posted a winning season, OROY and the postseason.  

So they got at least a year of something really nice.  Then the pain came.

Honestly, that is probably worse, TBH. I would rather you just suck right out of the gate than have to think about what could have been for a decade plus.

Remember the Seattle game with Dalton where the Bryce Stans mocked Dalton because he threw the ball 50+ times? Now Bryce does it, and he’s elite, and put out elite tape on Sunday. Lol

 

That was one battle I never understood. Darnold is so clearly terrible and Bryce was terrible with a false hope of being better. Now both are very obviously bad.

I will say that Darnold at least developed into a rosterable player. Bryce may be out of the league in 2-3 seasons at his current track.

Little different perspective. Biggest draft bust ever has to be the Hornets trading away Kobe Bryant immediately  after drafting him.

Did somebody from the Huddle call in on the show?

Side note: Bryce's stats in close 1 score games are hard to look at. 

 

At 5 mins  and 38 seconds 

analysis of bryce’s performance within one score (you know,  when it matters)

Passing   9 of 16 for 61 yards

1 sack fumble returned fir a TD

1 Interception  thrown

1 sack  fumble   taken away due to defensive penalty

game ending sack

that’s our qb when it matters

Everyone knew Manziel was going to flame out, especially once the combine process started and all the stories from TAMU started to get to teams. Dude straight up did not know how to play football, how to read a defense, how to not do drugs. There were rumors that his family was involved in armenian organized crime that were pretty credible. 

He was just that physically gifted in college; he had a huge arm, he could scramble away from anyone, and no matter where he was on the field he could toss up a jump ball to mike evans. Him beating Alabama was what caused Saban to finally get away from statue QBs and implement some RPO elements. 

The way he played in college was never going to work in the pros. Even if he wasn't a polysubstance abuser and was cerebral and willing to put in the work, the best case scenario was always him sitting for multiple years and learning how to play football. He was off almost all boards, notably not Dallas tho. 

This a true story. A homeless person approached Jimmy Haslam on the street and told him to draft Johnny Football. So the Browns did. That was just about the worst place he could have landed, he started right away, and the first time he tried to get to the edge against an NFL linebacker he realized he wasn't as fast as Luke Kuechly and he was injured and never really played again. 

I was at this game. 

Anyway, great college player, absolutely deserved the Heisman, was never going to work in the NFL, hard to call him a bust just because the Browns reached for him and threw him to the wolves. 

Sounds eerily familiar, but without the drugs and big arm.

    • After Bountygate and the information that came out on the Saints owners shielding pedophile priests in New Orleans it will forever be the Saints numero uno for me. FUG THE SAINTS! I hope this is just the beginning of a long term period of suffering for that shitty organization run by even shittier human beings. #2.Pats/Belicheat #3. Falcons (Mike Vick years then Matt Ryan/Julio running it up) Ryan pooping his pants and 28-3 def makes my bad days always better just thinking of those. #4 Pretty much any franchise fan base thats obnoxious Steelers, Eagles, Bills, Jets, Giants, Cowboys, etc.
    • Thank God DM used that #8 pick on a bona fide WR1 and not some bum pass rushing prospect like Stewart or someone else. I believe Tet is legit WR1 material and going forward will be our long term answer at that position since we desperately were in need of one once they traded away DJ Moore.  Tet could possibly end up even being better long term than someone who I respect a ton as a WR in Moore. Evans has been a pleasant surprise and great TE/FB depth piece going forward who could make the most of his opportunities.  Any good offense worth a damn in the NFL has 3 TEs that can do multiple things and being scared by Ian Thomas play for years should makes us all appreciate what Evans is quietly doing as a ROOKIE at one of the hardest positions to learn at the pro level.  Keep cooking DM. This season is not over obviously but seeing some growth out of young talent finally is a breathe of fresh fuggin air for once. 
    • Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
