Would not be surprised if the consensus was to take CJ Stroud, but Tepper thought he was smarter than everyone. Probably got a hard on watching Drew Brees all these years.

Could have kept DJ Moore, resigned Cam, and possibly taken AR. Resign Foreman and would be rolling right now.

Kinda goes to show that maybe there are too many cooks in the kitchen or football isn’t all that complicated.

My concern there is that because Young doesn’t have elite physical traits he will get baited by disguises. There’s isn’t going to be any magic. Either the answer is schemed open or it’s a throw away.

For once I just want to see Taysom Hill get absolutely destroyed

Thats what i fear. The FO fell in love with the person not the player and they were too stupid to see past that. He might be an amazing person with high character. Hell he might even deserve to be the #1 pick. But that doesn’t make him the best player.

That’s what I’m saying. It’s like drafting Heineke #1 overall.

I don’t think it’s the arm strength. It’s that he’s too easy to bring down. His small stride doesn’t allow him to make easy short yard pick ups. That and his accuracy hasn’t shown up yet. He left some plays on the field today. He’s either too quick to throw it away or he holds the ball too long doesn’t let guys go get it. He’s so committed to structure and having the wide open guy that it makes him predictable. Reich needs to tell him to let it rip. If he throws picks it’s fine. Just move the ball. We have to get aggressive.

I mean did we really miss him?

He’s better than Clausen. But it’s really looking like he’s just too small and requires too many compensating factors by the team to really be a viable franchise QB.

They need to just let him throw the god damn ball and sick or swim. Let him be aggressive and see if something sparks. It’s crazy for a #1 pick how much better Cam looked. And allegedly Cam wasn’t as “cerebral” as this guy. I don’t blame Bryce but you cant take a guy so high and say to yourself he has to have the perfect situation around him. That’s not realistic. He has to be a playmaker.

That’s what he does

Yep. It’s insane that hes supposed to be so special that you have to take him out on 4th and short.

Why run the ball at all if you already have FG range ?

Terrible play call

Why is Chark on the sideline ?

Another example of him being too small. A bigger player wouldn’t fallen for that sack.

Games about to be over

That was a bullshit flag

My god bro

How do we not have someone in the booth telling us to hurry up and run a play?

I don’t blame Bryce but we outsmarted ourselves by taking a guy who was just physically barely enough at the college level. He might be a smart player but that isn’t the only thing that makes a great NFL player. He presents himself well and is a good kid. We were too stupid to not see past that.

Stroud would have made that throw. Just facts.

So what was that flag ?

He’s too small. Small stride and easily stripped. No real running threat. He has to have a stacked offense to play well.
