Nice. Not gonna lie, I hated the trade and hated the pick but I hope this guy locks down the LT position fir the next decade. We've been looking for that guy since Gross retired.

I didn't hate it but I am worried about it.  The one thing I liked is that we didn't just draft a tackle, we specifically drafted a left tackle.  I hope he's the guy, because a healthy Cam means  we can win any game.

My primary concern is just that Hurney has a pretty terrible track record when chasing guys who are falling down the draft board. 

But, if we get a legit LT out of this then it was a fantastic deal.

What is his record on that, this time around or we talking about a decade ago again.

I don’t understand the Little draft pick criticism. He was highly successful as a starting LT in the SEC. 

wtf else do people want around here, Jesus H

 

  So were Luke Joeckel, Greg Robinson, Cyrus Kuandjio, Cedric Ogbeuhi, Germaine Ifedi, And Cam Robinson. 

 In that same time period Laramy Tunsil and Jake Mathews are the only two that could be considered successful. DJ Humphries is solid if he plays. 

 So excuse me if I want more than he played LT in the SEC as the high mark on his resume’. Because facts don’t back that up at all. It actually shows Little has twice as much chance at being an epic bust than successful.

    • The framing continues to be if you disagree with this top 10 play making….its then somehow spun as denying his improvement or hating. if you take Bryce’s career and exclude his last 2 starts……there really is no objective argument that isn’t a bottom tier starter to date. Is yeah, it’s cherry picking, recency bias and his surprising inability improvement driving it into a bit of silliness.  Literally nothing argued here except the top 10 stuff is overkill.   But it’s also the same time of year when folks can get bashed for saying Frank is a bad hire, Fitterer sucks and should be fired with Rhule, Ben McAdoo was a joke hire for a staff that forced into rejects, Rhule doesn’t know what he is doing and clearly exposed when reporters got into camp, the Sam/Baker comp and not picking one is dumb, and on and on.  Lot of frankly conservative takes are spun as wild hate this time of year.   
    • Doing a little digging and it looks like PFF didn't penalize him for the XL drop during that Chiefs game.  I also think the moral of the story is most teams aren't chunking it 20 plus yards for completions multiple times every game.  Hit a couple of those and you can be one of the top "deep" ball passers that week.  
    • Of course he needs to put together a full season and there is no reason to suggest he won't. His progress last year was great and unless you think he has already reached his ceiling he should continue to get better. That is why folks are excited for the first time in years. Who knows what will happen but to have a qb who finished the year playing excellently and is only going into his 3rd year, you need to be excited. At least until we have reason to think differently.
