Let me provide you with some food for thought. Before this "now era" of the NFL, QBs were allowed time to develop. Everyone from the GM to the fans had more patience. QBs were simply better in the old because they were afforded the time to sit, observe and learn. It's no wonder that guys we threw away, or simply didn't want, have had varying degrees of success elsewhere. 

Some Huddlers were talking crazy about Jordan Love and Lamar Jackson---just crazy...

Nick Saban QBs have pretty consistently just been good college QBs (with absurd production) in incredible scenarios.    

I think there is something to almost every Bama and Ohio St not panning out that well at the next level.   Lot of the most dominant NFL QBs were doing way more of the work in college than those dudes.   Really includes UGA too.  There is basically Stafford. 

NIL is going to change all that going forward as those 3 won't basically have the superior roster every single year

For like the 100th time on here, there are only 3 options after this season for Bryce.

1. Trade him

2. Extend him

3. Pick up the 5th

 

what would you recommend the team doing?  Honest question. 

Dude, did you not see my first post in this thread? Bryce would be out on the first thing smoking. I'm tired of him as the Panthers QB. IDGAF if he turns into Mighty Mouse, It's time to put a more prototypical guy on the field.

QBs were simply better, or at least more fundamentally sound, in the old days because they were afforded the time to sit, observe and learn. It's no wonder that guys we threw away, or simply didn't want, have had varying degrees of success elsewhere.

I just want to bring u back to reality this is  in fact a #1 overall pick we are talking about in Bryce Young 

 how long should you wait & develop a #1 overall pick in order to get a true understanding of their value ?

To add to how it use to be with qb's, most successful teams drafted a qb several years before he was needed. That gave them an opportunity to develop him before he was thrown in the fire. In today's society the qb must start day 1 or he's a bust. Its all about getting immediate gratification for both the fans and the owners that want an immediate return.

Bryce Young????????

This is literally all it ever comes down to for me with Bryce.

He doesn't have a single physical trait at the average level of a starting QB in the NFL, it's why the draft pick itself just never made any sense to me.  Picking Bryce (for any team) was always going to be betting on him becoming the biggest outlier in the history of the sport/position because of his "super brain" he sold everyone on.

Just that FACT alone should have kept him out of any discussion for a #1 overall pick, let alone a massive trade up to go get him.  

So then, if that super brain hasn't figured it out by Year 3, it's pretty clear that he never will, and when that's the case, his physical limitations just don't allow him to be a successful long term solution.

OSU only has a a couple 1st rounders, Haskins- didn't look good but career was cut short, Fields- Bears about ruined him, and Stroud who looks legit.

Did you miss my first post in this thread too? Look at the first page and go two down.

My bad, I thought the premise of your post was to let Bryce keep developing

go back and watch the 3rd and 15 to Tremayne.  He was open and bryce did he little hop throw and in the process went off his wrong foot thus not creating any drive on the ball and that allowed not 1 but 2 card defenders to break up the past.

There are examples like that littered from Sunday

I'm not talking about anyone specific. We were talking about qb development. That applies to any qb drafted back then whether he was the first pick or not.

It's all good. I think that in general, we may be too impatient, but when you see some guys, like Bryce, there's just nothing you can do with them.

For me it was the incompletion to Sanders.

Yes, Sanders still should have caught the ball anyways, but Bryce had to make a jump pass from a standing still position because of his height and oncoming pass rusher.

Because of that combined with his weak arm, it was a low pass, whereas a QB with a real NFL arm (and size) is making that throw with ease and still hitting the receiver in the chest with the ball, not down by their knees.

I'm just saying if you made a list of all the dominant Bama, OSU, UGA college QBs out there competing for nattys and blowing folks up.......how many have ever really hit a the next level (regardless of draft status). 

It just seems like that's not where you find a QB.  That's where you find the players for around your QB.  

Then you look at who the actual dominant NFL QBs are.  You got a Texas Tech.  A North Dakota.  A Louisville. 

I mean you got a Burrow that would run counter to my train of thought but yeah, it gets really tough to judge these dudes that were playing on basically college all star rosters.

    • Unless the league decides to rollback the rule book 30 years, that player at QB isn't winning any Super Bowls.  QB has to elevate those around him.  QBs that are carried by the team are always exposed in the playoffs. Closest thing to an average QB that has won the SB recently is Jalen Hurts.  But he's so unique with his legs and the unstoppable tush push that I don't think it's easy to compare him to anyone.  Certainly not someone who is subbed out for QB sneaks.
    • You absolutely can have hope. You can’t convert people though; making advocacy posts are kind of … not reading the room.   I had a small hope that he would be able to at least manage some games and that they could make it work in some kind of no fun to watch fashion.  But honestly I had 100% determined he was not NFL starter material, and I had conviction. So to root for him to marginally succeed goes against the best interest of the Panthers long term, according to my beliefs. I wanted him gone the minute he got here if I am honest.It was up to him to prove otherwise.  He has rarely shown me anything to think I was wrong on his ceiling.  He did show me some courage last year, standing in the pocket and stepping into his throw in the face of pressure - but that has gone somewhere. He made some nice throws last year in places too, but they invested in him on the level of the Atlanta game should be his norm. Good luck seeing that again on Sunday. Still, he did it once, so technically it could happen again. 
    • Damn that was a longer post than I intended, Maybe I should have started a new thread.
