Did you not follow our draft then? 

I did.  I didn't pay as much attention to the later rounders, in particular his speed. 

To be fair, historically, our late rounders were wasted Hurney picks.

I had no idea either.  Its why I posted it.

Yeah he is a burner. We grabbed him in the 4th round and Stanley Thomas Oliver in the 7th. He had trouble in coverage and some in tacking last season, but it wasn't for lack of effort that I could see. He ran with everyone we asked him to, he just had trouble tracking the ball and playing as physical as he needs to against NFL receivers (at least that's what I saw). He's got plenty of talent just needs to work on technique and mindset a little.

Well supposedly that was not a Hurney draft. I don't know that I believe that but that is what some here choose to believe.

I would think you would have known about him since he was a guy that was talked about quite a bit before the season.

I knew of him.  I knew he went to ND and was late round CB.   That was about it.

Is that OK?

Horn, Jackson and Pride is a great top 3 for our CB group. 

Watch out for Taylor.  He earned his stripes at Washington, they leave em on an island there.  He tore up at the senior bowl.

Its gonna be fierce competition at cb this year.

I love it.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Loyalty4Life · Posted

      I want to throw in how much easier it is for a QB to develop and improve with a good oline.  Huge credit to the front office for spending the money on our two guards.  Cade Mays also had a 2nd really good game starting at center.  Love how he has developed and hope he's the real deal. Look at what Stroud is dealing with now in Houston after injuries and problems with their oline.  Strouds accuracy has been greatly affected as it seems like he doesn't trust his protection. Canales is doing a great job developing Bryce.  I think the QB whisperer might be for real. And obviously big props to Bryce.  First round pick that looks horrible in his first year.  Different coaches and systems.  Fans and media are calling him the biggest bust in NFL history and he looked like it in the first two games this year.  Gets benched.  Young man keep his cool and just continued to work and only worry about what he can control.  I hope things continue like this and we end up with a great success story. Bryce Young kept pounding.

      This is exactly what we needed to see from Beyce

      Outside of Philly (who currently is #3 in pass defense) the rest of our remaining opponents are bottom 1/3 of the League in that regard.  Let's see what Bryce can do versus bad pass Ds.
