He hasn't but you have to remember that we are talking from the "franchises perspective" when a lot of us are saying "earned."

I don't think many of us actually want this to happen but this coaching staff, FO and owner are way more convinced.

What's the alternative?  Let him play without picking it up and risk him becoming a free agent? 

I am definitely opposed to a long term contract unless he removes all doubt next year he can carry this franchise but the 5th year option is logical.  There hasn't been a #1 draft pick that hasn't had their 5th year option picked up since Baker Mayfield which was dumb move by the Browns

I listened to it...he gave a total non-answer when it came to extending Bryce. He also said they will absolutely be bringing in competition to the QB room (and every position). We'll see what they do, but there was nothing that set off alarm sirens in my head during that.

now draft a developmental QB or sign a legitimate backup to compete and push him to be better.  Andy Dalton is washed and should be released. 

This would be the path for a competent franchise. It remains to be seen if it will actually happen.

Agreed you can't expect Dan to expose his cards to the media.

How has he not? you get him for another year for $26MM which is reasonable for his level of performance.  Do you think you can get a better QB on the free agent market for that same amount? 

Jameis Winston is getting paid $4m this year.

Davis Mills is getting paid $7m this year.

Sam Howell is getting paid $1m this year.

Gardner Minshew is getting paid $1m this year.

 

So yes, yes I do.

We know what Jameis, Howell and Minshew are - not a long term option at all.

Davis Mills is interesting but such a small sample size.  Even Kyle Allen had a nice run of games once upon a time.  There's no proven commodity for starting level QB you can build around.  Malik Willis is the only one I would try to bring in for legitimate competition but he'll probably want to be a guaranteed starter somewhere else this offseason.

No.  He has been one of (if not he most) inconsistent players in the NFL.

 

Extreme highs and extreme lows.   Based on those highs, he has 100% earned a 5th year.

 

Based on the lows, he has shown we can't give him a long term deal yet.

I don't personally view that as a risk because I don't view him as an NFL starting QB.

And although there haven't been many #1 overall picks to not get a 5th year option there have been ample first round QB's and first round picks overall. It's not a crazy outlier for the 1st round or even top 10.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By rmoneyg35 · Posted

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
