I hope not. Happy feet, dances and will not step up in the pocket. Seems to me that he got a lot of three-man rushes (in the Illinois game) and the ends were attacking from the outside. Three linemen blocked the nose. He didn't step up most of the time, and started running from the DEs. He is a lower first round talent, IMO.

Well I'm confused. I've been told that the smokescreen was that the Panthers leaked that Cam Newton was perfect in his private interview, but Rivera had already said good things about him in public anyway, so what was the point, and how are you going to fool teams that have already interviewed him anyway and knew exactly how he did?

ugh, PASS. I hate that nowadays it's dumb to take anything BUT a quarterback even if the quarterback class is as weak as this one. next year the best quarterback prospect in this draft would probably be the 5th+ QB taken.

And that's another thing. I've been told over and over that there is no clear cut #1 pick, yet I'm supposed to believe that we're engineering this brilliant smokescreen in order to get somebody to give us some of their draft picks for one of these players? I just don't buy it.

      No, you're right. It doesn't mean you can't call out his flaws and poor play. But it also doesn't mean you can't admit when he plays well and shows improvement. Not you personally, just in general I mean.

      I will say, I do think there's a version of Bryce that could be really successful as a high-volume passer in a spread-based offense built around quick throws and timing-based intermediate throws with deeper throws schemed up around them. I actually think the power run based offense we're running is a poor fit for Bryce as it requires him to play under center far more often. It's a very traditional offensive approach whereas I think a scheme that spreads defenses out and lets Bryce distribute the ball quickly with anticipation and accuracy is the sweet spot for him. The key, of course, is to find a way to run the ball efficiently out of those formations. Our personnel right now (backs and OL) aren't good fits for that style of offense and I'm not sure it's a scheme Dave Canales favors very much either.

      I root for him, and I hope for the best, as does essentially everyone. But that doesn’t mean you can’t call out flaws and bad plays. And that’s what a lot of people get wrong.  I hope I’m wrong and that he continues to improve a lot, I just doubt it. But I’ve been wrong before
