Jstew For...

how on earth is this supposedly such a good idea that people are joining the huddle en masse to post it?

that's essentially trading j-stew for claiborne straight up, and then we lose our first round choice.

BAD.

fuging.

IDEA.

The thought process is that we can't keep JStew after this year anyways because we can't afford to dump that much cash into one position out of 22. If we stay at #9, we don't get Claiborne. So, it's more like trading 130 JStew carries for 4-5 years of Claiborne. Sweet idea.

chances are claiborne is going to fall to us. if he doesn't there are plenty of other options available at 9 that will improve our team in other areas of need.

normally fans come up with retarded trade scenarios that completely rape other teams but now they're all trying to rape our own team.

I can't believe you people are acting like running backs have this immense value. We are not that different of a team without JStew.

I couldn't disagree more.

The entire league is going to a two-back system. The reason our offense was a top-five attack last year is because of the dual threat of deangelo williams and jonathan stewart. they were both fresh on every single snap, and while one of them excelled between the tackles the other excelled around the edges and in open space. having them in the backfield opened up the passing game AND cam's ability to escape the pocket and run himself.

It amazes me that we're only a year removed from that clusterfug of an offense in 2010 and already people are trying to remove the components of what made last year so effective.

    • I get it's subjective and I said "PFF rated him as" one of the top deep ball passers during that time, which is an accurate statement.  They are still a group of professionals that look at film and data in order to make their judgements/ratings.  These people whose data has been incorporated into a lot of teams' staffs view Bryce's deep throws as some of the best in the league during that stretch.  That tells me that he can probably throw a deep pass vs the Huddle's version of he is small and didn't do it his rookie year so he must not be able to.  That and literally seeing him do it just makes me feel he is more than capable of doing so.   Do you think PFF is skewing their opinion to prop up a QB in a bottom tier franchise?  It's just another group's opinion and I feel is pretty respected around the league currently.  It's not the gospel truth or anything.  
    • I still remember how happy I was that gettlegut was not the GM once he picked Jones, that was a firing pick and well..... If not for the raiders drafting Clelin Ferrell, it was the biggest draft day mistake in the last 20 some years. 
    • He had 251 passing yards. 3 passing touchdowns and 2 rushing touchdowns. All in all a very impressive game. Problem is I do not envision his rushing ability translating like that over the course of the upcoming season. Yeah it will be something to account for from time to time but one it's not sustainable and two you don't want to put his durability to the ultimate test against a motivated defender willing to take a penalty and a fine. And plus with our backfield. Two 1k yard rushers. That's what they're here for. Then we have a much improved WR room. That means Bryce has to elevate those passing numbers substantially. The fact of the matter is regardless of circumstances it did take him 23 games to surpass Kyle Allen's single season passing yardage from 13 games in 2020. And that is not a high bar by any means. Whatever QB tier Bryce ends up in from here amongst his peers this upcoming season when it's all said and done it will be with his arm.
