This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion)

I’m tired of this. His supporters will point to some of the TD throws but damn it, an open streaking WR is a throw every QB should make. It’s when he has to make plays where he falls apart and shows that he’s not a competent NFL QB. No way a competent QB gets gifted 3 interceptions and amazing field position and gets 3 points.

Number 1 offseason priority is getting a QB so we don’t keep wasting Brown and Horn and we get a real return off our 3 young WRs.

With good QB play, we win that game easy and take this division easy. Tired of poo QB play.

Honestly, I love this draft for QBs if enough stay in the draft. It was supposed to be an amazing QB draft but some of the favorites have had disappointing seasons and some surprises have emerged. I see this as an opportunity that a guy we can coach up (one of the top guys had Mike Shula) is a 2nd rounder when he would have gone top 5 before the season. Might be able to find a Favre, Brees, Love or Lamar late first/early 2nd. Prayers to the football gods that maybe we find that every 20 years Montana/Brady late in the draft because we sure as poo can close that door on Purdy.

Film is out on Bryce now.  Any decent d coordinator knows how to bottle up this midget

I was listening to this because I went to bed last night:

And Sam made a point about Bryce is a VIBES QB.  I think that works pretty well.  Against Atlanta, for whatever reason, he has "the vibe" but not against ATL, you get 5.0 YPA Bryce.

I understand kids now a days are so different, but Bryce just doesn't have the IT factor.  Sure, he can make some clutch plays because he gets a feeling to do it.  The rest of the time, he's just there.  I'm just not a fan of that anymore.

For me, it has much less to do with his physical limitations, but more to do with the desire.  Bryce uses his faith as a shield when questions about his confidence come out.  To me, that's a BIG tell.  Look, I'm not going to argue with folks about the role religion should play - you do you and be happy.  But when Bryce is saying "my confidence comes from the Lord" anytime someone asks him a question, what I hear is someone who really hasn't learned to face adversity on their own terms.  Again, I'm not trying to say that there's no room for faith, but there has to be a strong element of personal accountability in growth.

Bryce has been well coached on what to say.  He's a genuinely nice kid.  My main concern is that it doesn't look like Bryce has had to overcome something on his own.  Almost like cleaning up ones own mess.  He just doesn't have the consistent fire to be THE DUDE.  As our GM could relate to: Bryce doesn't have that DAWG in him consistently.  

Welp, that happens.  The NFL draft is a crapshoot.  Sometimes you make a brilliant pick, other times you WHIFF.  Bryce isn't a Jamarcus Russel mistake.  I think Bryce will be a great back up QB with some limited starter potential.  When that fire hits, he can be really good.  We've seen that.  The problem is the vibe, the fire, or the DAWG.  He just lacks IT.

    • I wonder if they'd consider trading Rasheed Walker to a team that needs tackle help but missed out in the draft?
    • LOL. This is such a Panthers fan take.  Anyone who falls to us must suck because some other team didn't take them before.  We got lucky with Lemon, Thieneman, and Freeling all falling to us (honestly any of the three is a A+) but the WR and S positions are much deeper than the LT position in this draft.  We got the LT w/ the most upside at 19.  Mauigoa played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the nfl.  Spano played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the NFL due to short arms.  Blake Miller played RT in college and is not as good as Freeling.  Proctor is a true LT but his ability to handle quick edge's worries me (see Icky).  Freeling is a true LT and a gifted pass protector.  Many think he has a very high ceiling and will benefit from not having to start right away.  This is how you build a franchise.  
    • After watching Cam get killed for years behind a bad Oline and having to watch the 2021 and 2023 Olines I will never complain about this team putting resources into that spot.  We got a true LT who could really push Rasheed Walker for the day 1 job. Go back and watch Iceky's draft profile from 2022 and all the talk was Ickey would be an all-pro guard in a zone blocking scheme, but he could play LT in a gap power run scheme. That's why Ickey looked really good when Wilks took over and we just started running gap run plays and just mauled people up front but under Canales we've been more of a zone running team. Ickey can survive at LT with his pass blocking but his true strength will always be his ability to just move guys in the run game and that's a skill set that's better used at guard.  Take another OT later on day 3 to learn from Moton to take over RT in a couple of years and let Walker and Freeling battle it out for the day 1 LT job then next offseason trade one of Hunt of Lewis and let Ickey move inside to guard.
