While a lot of ‘analysts’ say size shouldn’t matter with Young, most former players I’ve heard discuss him are scared for him. Pat McAfee did a segment the other day on this. He and another former player were extremely skeptical that Young won’t get killed out there some day. He’s just so small.

30 yrs old. Started with the Bengals as a UDFA. Spent most of his career on practice squads until 2020. First career interception came via Cam Newton.

#1 pick No Moore DJ 2 fat guys Dalton no Darnold

I have some doubts on the most important thing…his ability to quickly process the field. I’ve seen evidence he can do it at a high level, but it’s not as obvious as Young.

I believe Sims also had Zach Wilson above Trevor Laurence as well.

This. New staff, rookie QB, not real offensive weapons. Its a building year… Yeah, another one.

5 years is the stat. HC/QB combos have to win the SB in 5 years or they never do. Example. Cam and Ron went to the SB in their 5th year together.

He also said Corral was the best QB in the draft last year. Kinda concerns me.

It is. But if you hate every decision and think it’s not possible for the team to make a good decision, then why continue?

I hear the Chiefs are accepting new fans. Check’em out.

You really think we gave away DJ Moore just to trade down?

We don’t have a 1st next year.

There is a breakdown of Bryce on YouTube where they show wide open receivers in the middle of the field that Bryce clearly can’t see because of his height. This happened over and over again. Its going to be an issue.

You’re talking about the point guard comments?

His processing is elite. This is #1-A of what separates elites from Tier 2. #1-B is availability. Can he go a full season and then win us a SB? Can he do that at 28 or 32?Brady, Manning, Brees, Etc almost never missed a start. Brady missed one I think. Manning never. Brees just 11 starts. I think we can do a ton to protect him, but he’s still going to get hit and at his size a big Aaron Donold hit could end his season. Draft him if Strouds processing is just not there, but don’t if Stroud is close. BTW…I fully expect Young will have the better rookie year. The proof will be what happens in year 3-5 when the hits start piling up on that small frame.

Does he have a vid on Young? I couldn’t find one.

Yep, it’s not size it’s lack of durability due to being undersized. Its a legit concern.

If Bryce was 6’2, Justin Fields would be looking for a new team.

That’s like saying, without the rose bowl do you take Herbert? Same situation really. Sometimes these guys can do a lot more but don’t because of their system and game plan. The question is what can they actually do? The Georgia game showed what he’s capable of.

That’s the dilemma right? Do you take the Better QB who is most likely going to have injury issues, or do you take a ‘lesser’ QB who is less likely to have those issues? I’ve been on the Stroud train since the fall, but I’m starting to think the Panthers are going to go Young because of his intelligence.

Young is the better QB. I don’t think that is in question. The question is he durable enough for a long NFL career?

Scott is going to trade down for more picks.

It’s definitely been a very eventful few years.

All valid points but what’s the alternative? Hope someone falls to 9? Roll with Darnold? Sign Rogers for $50 mill? All the options suck in some way.

The Bears wanted a sure thing in DJ instead of another lottery ticket. Smart.
