Yes, they got to play against college defenses.

Nah, beyond the obvious.  I heard after that draft that it was simplified and ran some very basic concepts that made it super easy for the QB.  I think it was spread but they also either limited the reads to one side of the field or it was one read type stuff.  Things you can’t run in the pros.  I figured it was a lost cause once the Lions let him go.

He can't read defenses. NFL game is another level and either he's unwilling to put in work or just can't put it together.

People were clamoring for this guy to start lol

Bro, we have some real delusional fans.

Hooker was about as obvious as it gets. If you got fooled by that guy, it's time for some real looking in the mirror and assessing your ability to recognize an NFL player.

Well we paid another local guy. He got a heck of an experience. Now, take your litttle nest egg or sports car and go home and coach.

Hooker? I think max practice squad pay is something like $22k per week. I doubt he got half that. More than I make though. By a lot.

Have to eat my humble pie here.  I advocated us taking him in his draft bc I thought he had the tools to be a great NFL QB.  Looks like that Tennessee offense was really QB friendly.

Don’t help yourself to too many servings of that humble pie. If you are looking at the Carolina Panthers as your barometer for evaluating QB talent, well…

To be fair I bet a lot of people don’t sit and watch every college game, even if they do have the time to watch college ball there’s so many teams that you can’t  watch every game so most people just look at stats, highlight reels and sports pundits who hype up and rank college players. 
 

looking at his stats where in the last two seasons he threw for 31 tds 3 INTs 68% completion percentage, and over 600 yards on the ground and 27 tds 2 INTs 69% completion percentage and over 400 yards on the ground.

 

those are amazing numbers, especially in the SEC.

 

I understand how the right system can mask a players deficiencies but you still got to give the player some credit.

he also had a horrible injury in his last game of his college career which probably also effected his nfl career.

I doubt it. I looked up the pay scale and if you are three years vested you work off a better minimum-maximum range than the less senior players. 
The top of that is 22. 
Okay I just searched. That is last year. It’s up to $25k. Minimum is $13k

just google: nfl practice squad salary 2025

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      And once again I showed you it’s been pretty even. We spent 2nd and 3rd rounders this past draft on edge rushers. No one’s going to sit here and do the math on a draft value chart etc. the only reason I even entertained this was because you said we’ve spent nothing on defense when that simply isn’t true. It also didn’t help we traded our ONLY WR worth a damn to trade up for Bryce soo… And this is kind of the issue with the anti Bryce crowd. This crowd tends to blame him for the trade up. I was team Stroud. Had the panthers not taken Young the only other QB they were going to take was Richardson. So your issue should be with Tepper, Morgan, Fitterer not Bryce.  Bryce is who he is and it was pretty obvious who he was during the draft process. Bryce is slowly developing into that guy most thought he’d be. Give him a WR like Jamo and this offense as a whole would improve greatly.  Anyone thinking he was the next Pat Mahomes or Josh Allen is clearly slow. Bryce was always going to need pieces around him much like EVERY other QB Burrow has Chase and Higgins and they’ve done nothing. After losing in AFC Championship in 2022, Burrow is 17-15. QB’s need a team around them It’s why a Jalen Hurts led Eagles team dismantled a Pat Mahomes led KC team in the SB Imo the QB’s doing the most with the least up until this year have been Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson  This year it’s Drake Maye and Josh Allen  Outside of the 3-5 elite type QB’s I’m not really sure what people expect here. Is Bryce ever going to be in that elite category? Nope. Should we punt on Bryce and keep swinging? I don’t think so. Should we keep swinging while hanging onto Bryce? Yeah but I don’t know what that looks like This team as a whole isn’t very good. Offense and defense and that’s the simple truth

      I didn't move the goal posts. But anyone who follows football who wants to engage in a rational discussion can't argue that 10 7th round picks are equal to 10 1st rounders in value. The argument has always been we haven't spent as much on defense has we have on offense. Draft picks have value just like salary. We have not spent the same amount of draft pick salary cap on defense that we have on offense since drafting Bryce. It's not even close. Just the 2 1sts we used on Bryce, 2 overall 1sts have a value of 6000. That doesn’t even factor in DJ Moore or the 2 2nds. Bryce cost more than everything we've spent on defense in 6 damn years.
