Whose says we are the reason that Jones isn't signed yet? Maybe we offered anamount below the tender amount for him to return and he is exploring his options. He might not be willing to sign for what we can or will pay him. Remember he was a stop gap solution when both Robinson and Carter went down. We might be trying to get a return guy in the draft or might like Kenneth Moore alot.

Jones is slow. As said in an earlier (and mocking) thread, he is average...but we've never had average lately so it looked as if he was the MAN out there. When in fact, he was...average. He got beat my three kickers for crying out loud. Robinson is faster. I say give it to the kid.

Robinson was straight up awful in 07. He showed some promise towards the end of the season but after a whole year spent injured I would not trust him to come in and do anything special. Jones was great all year for us, I believe he was a top ten returner.

    • 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.      
    • 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.
