He is a simple man who doesn’t need football to be happy.  The money he already has is more than enough for him to live a life he loves forever.  Good for him.  12 mil guaranteed is plenty

I think you nailed it. This guy never thought he’d be an NFL player until his senior year. Now he’s a multi millionaire who cares more about commercials and Tik toks than football. Just doesn’t have priorities straight

This whole thing is dumb AF.

The org pushed for him. Morgan wanted him. Bryce Young's daddy wanted him.

If this guy is a bust heads need to roll.

Wish we could make the guy who pushed for Bryce's head roll

This is correct. I said it a few days ago.. if he parks a few mil in even a modest growth fund before the age of 28? He good. 

I have and will continue to say it.  the 3 drops on the final drive of the Eagles game was the moment the FO knew they needed to look for his replacement. That’s when he showed that if given a chance, he will lose you a game.

Minor cope but we could have had McConkey or Coleman.  The Cardinals could have taken Alt, Nabers or Bowers.

You can never tell how these guys will react to having a lot of money for the first time. In Harrison's case the money shouldn't be his problem. But it does seem to be effort.  XL's problem seems to be a bit of both. It does go to show that draft position doesn't mean a damn thing when UDFA's are playing better than both.

He may have his priorities straight. If he’s happy doing what he’s doing, why risk permanent body or brain injury? It sucks for us, and we could and should have drafted someone else. Just more proof our scouting department needs serious overhaul.

Harrison seems to have lost some confidence. He still at least shows flashes, and he's been far more productive than XL.  But maybe a bigger disappointment in some ways given people expected so much more from Harrison

Agreed.  For XL I'd guess NFL speed football awareness is his #1 problem.  Failing to get 2 feet down with 5 yards of room in the AZ game as a 2nd year player feels like the beginning of the end.  As you point out, someone like UDFA Coker managed that his first game.

I really don't think it's primarily effort. For XL, when the lights come on his go out.
