Just thought it was interesting, yeah he is still a rookie and can get better but he was supposed to be the most NFL ready prospect in the draft way more than Cam. Can you imagine having him on the team right now struggling and still a bad QB situation because we picked him?

Stuff like this makes handling close losses a whole lot easier. Future is bright.

Great job Hurney :cam:

Hurney played Russian Roulette and won. Don't act like before the draft Cam was a sure fire #1.
i think he was. i had no doubts about him. the only thing i didn't know was how fast he would adapt.

meanwhile...guys like dareus and peterson were being hailed as "immediate impact players".

Dont' see why he shouldn't have been considered. He was always the better QB of this year's draft. It just seemed as if certain folks with some media clout wanted Blaine over Cam. I guess since they couldn't get Andrew, their real choosen QB, going up against the kid who took the Heisman away from him, they would settle for a kid who just looked like an elite NFL QB.

Just watching this year's draft opened my eyes to the politics that is played when it comes to certain players...It's not what u know...It's who u know.

I'm gonna call bull on that Ray. I don't believe ANYONE knew he was going to be this good. Other than Auburn fans and his parents. Oh and warren moon. If you truly did, good for you man. I wish I had your insight.

LOL! There was no sure fire #1.

That's kinda the point I was trying to make..

:lol: call bull all you want. i don't really care.

i didn't say i knew he would be this good although i knew he would be good. i said i considered him a surefire #1 (which is what you were saying that no one thought he would be). there's a difference.

    • And that’s where a lot of people struggle to see it with Bryce Bryce is never physically going to “wow” anyone. Which will ultimately keep him out of that elite QB tier.  Burrow, Mahomes, Allen, Lamar, Maye, Stafford People want to put Herbert in that tier because he’s the ultimate highlight type QB. Highlights in this day and age trump just about everything. I’m more inclined to put Dak in that category than Herbert.  Then there’s the tier before the elite group. That’s where I believe Young’s ceiling is. Which is fine. You better have a good team and a good coach around these types though.  I believe Bryce has a higher ceiling than Goff. Put Young on Detroit and that team has a higher ceiling. Would also have a lower floor but you’d take that.  Bryce doesn’t have many true ‘wtf’ moments. He definitely did his rookie year. Granted the bulk of his “supporting cast” and HC are out of the league now and were well on their way out when the arrived here.  Due to lack of physical traits and what made Bryce good at Bama this NFL thing was and still is going to take time with him. He’s adjusting to NFL defenses.  So sure, we’re kind of in a pickle. Do we keep Bryce and have something like the 10th best QB in the league paired with Canales whose ceiling is probably similar at his position or do we keep doing what we’ve been doing since 2017? This team has been an absolute mess since Tepper took over. He’s finally seeing some wins. I’m all for spending a day 3 pick every year on a QB with traits. But for the time being Young is definitely our best option in 2026 and it would be tough to imagine us having a better option at this point in 2027 as well I know how much the huddle loves charts but this wasn’t happening his rookie year. This chart is 2 weeks old but point remains. It’s also why I said Dalton would be useless against Buffalo. Bryce has done a real good job at avoiding sacks this year and then making something happen. Bryce is fully capable of giving you those 4-5 big plays you need from a QB a game. Those 4-5 big plays just look a lot different than the 4-5 big highlight type plays you get from those physically gifted QB’s
    • 5 games without a turnover, the defense has surprised me a lot this year. Second to last in sacks, yet still getting the job done, impressive. 
    • Dave “Uncanny” Canales His choices are often inexplicable, but work absurdly well about half the time.
