Houston trades Ryans for a fourth round draft pick to Philadelphia who is in desperate need for a MLB. Initial articles think Philly got the best end of the deal. If so then why was Houston willing to part with a probowler for a 4th round pick? Was it scheme give the Texans run a 3-4 and the Eagles run a 4-3? Was it that they don't want to wait for Ryans to come back totally from achilles surgery with his production dropping off precipitously after the rehab and scheme change?? He was primarily used as a 2 down back last year. Was the 5.9 million contract that big a deal when he wouldn't take a paycut? A combination of the 3 or what?

What happens if the same kind of production fall happens to Beason particularly if Rivera starts using the 3-4 more.

One bleacher report article thinks that this might negatively impact Kuechly going high in the draft since Philly is where many folks have pegged him at 15. Yeah it is bleacher report but it was a fan opinion and this is a fan messageboard.

I know I am giving ammunition to the anti-Kuechly folks but that is just the kind of guy I am. Besides I can always say it was bleacher report, LOL.

DIscuss.

Everything I've seen says it was mainly a scheme issue and some cap relief... Ryans had his worse year (stat wise) last year after they switched to a 3-4...

It was also the first year back from Achilles Surgery. Takeo Spikes has made it most of the way back but it took him 3 years and different teams before he returned to 90% of his old self.

      Nussmeier shows all the qualities, but has a really bad game here and there. Sellers is raw, we will see how things play out.

      Canales needs to concentrate on coaching

      By frankw · Posted

      Well let's be realistic here. He could have taken one look at Bryce Young on tape and known what he was getting. As JackieLee stated his work with QB's like Geno Smith and Baker Mayfield is a big contributing factor in why he was hired. At the same time we also have to recognize other factors. Seemingly and realistically he was the only one seriously considering the job. And as far as "fixing" Bryce Young goes one entire staff has already gotten the axe over him. Frank Reich was vilified as possibly the worst head coaching hire ever. 2 years later the more we see of Bryce the more it looks like he was the problem. Right now we are at a true crossroads. We cannot just play out the season with Young and be a serious franchise. We have to try and see what we have in the young roster and firmly get some sort of look at Canales offense. At this point Dave Canales needs to earn the right to draft his own QB. So far he has developed bupkis at the most important position. And he and Dan Morgan made the decision to not give Bryce Young one iota of competition for the third year in a row. He cannot claim the cupboards are bare beyond his control.
