I think we took so long to get the pick in cuz we were contemplating trade downs but in the end they took the bird in the hand and I’m glad they did. I’d love a 2nd round pick to try to get a QB with, but we got the best OT in the draft, maybe best offensive player. You don’t pass that up

This line is now built for whatever comes next

Baker or Jimmy G can lead us to a wild card berth with this line

A first round rookie next year will have time to develop and not be ruined. 
 

This was smart. 

Or, y'know, let Darnold play behind an actual NFL OLine for once in his career.

Hopefully our answer at lt for years but Daniel Jeremiah has this quote...

Worst-case scenario, he slides inside and becomes a Pro Bowl-caliber guard

if getting a pro bowl guard is worst case, I can live with that.  Jeremiah had him #3 overall fwiw

I'm sure they were on the phone.  Most of the top 5 had their pick in pretty quickly.  In the end someone was trying to fleece us and Fitterer said "No Way"

      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.
