I really like this guy.He may not address our most glaring need but I feel there is something special about this guy.....his intangibles point to an over achiever who I feel is worthy of consideration.To bad your nose for the ball cannot be measured at the combine.

Rip me about this guy and eat your words in a couple of years http://www.derp/2012/3/2/2838294/past-and-present-luke-kuechly-vs-dan-morgan

Then he will need to get much better in pass coverage

That's one of his strongsuits, he plays well in Man to man and in zone against TE's and slot WR's. He showed this consistently while at BC.

Aaron Curry v2.0

You don't draft a great tackler in the Top 10.

He's not just a great tackler, he's really good in coverage and excellent between the trenches against the run. His athleticism will allow him to learn how to blitz the QB easily.

He's got sky high intelligence, football instincts, plenty of strength, speed and athleticism that he isn't Aaron Curry 2.0, not even close to it.

I'd take him happily if we could manage to trade back.

His combine plus his game tape has put him into the top 15. So trading back isn't going to cut it. There's a few teams between 11 and 15 that will take him and I doubt he falls past the Eagles.

I agree with you however I do not think he will be the BPA when we pick. If we take him, I will be behind him though.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.

      The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
