I think most people forget that when Cam started here, the talent around him was Greg Olsen, Steve Smith, Deangelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart.  Young had a terrible group of receivers outside of Thielen.  In fact, of all the tight ends and receivers that we had that year, the only one still playing is Tommy Tremble.  There might be a couple of them on practice squads or IR.

I hate this argument because it just casually glosses over the fact that many people here on the huddle argued Cam would struggle with the playbook and wouldn't even do much his rookie year because he was regarded as a project.

Whereas Bryce Young was afforded every benefit of the doubt before and immediately following the draft. Comparisons to hall of fame athletes across different sports etc.

And the flip side of this is we have no idea just how good any of these receivers could be because we have never seen them with another QB who could raise anyone's ceiling. Everything has to go perfect across the board for us to even move the ball more often than not.
