1. Texans do like Bryce

2. Stroud WAS the favorite when we traded because everyone went right to the QB size Reich has had.

3. Fitterer Is open to trading back.     For the right price.   Just like he says he’s “in on every deal”. On every FA and Trade.  It’s why he’s said in the past he’s always open to taking calls for any player, but doesn’t mean he’s going to trade that guy.

4. Carolina is “rumored” to Bryce.  Bryce was the top prospect at QB in the draft all along,  and was always the favorite to go number 1 until the trade.  They may have been torn on a couple guys but after going around to the pro days and meeting with people.  Players start to separate which it seems and sounds Bryce has.   This isn’t just some bleacher report rumors.  We now have multiple local beat reporters hearing the exact same thing.

5. Texans were  never going to take a QB just to take one.  And there’s been rumors even back before the trade that Stroud wasn’t even the number 2 QB on their board.  They also have multiple 1st next year.

 

so you can go ahead and take the tin foil hat off.

No real argument with any of that.

People are definitely lying their asses off this time of year, but that doesn't mean everything they're saying is a lie.

(unlike Harcourt Fenton Mudd) 😐

The two 2024 1st rounders is a good point. They might like Young this year, but they have the flexibility to be able trade up and pick the best QB next year if they want to.

If Williams looks great again that pick won’t be for sale.

Don’t bother trying to save the sanity of some of these fools, ready to gobble up every rumor and piece of intentional misdirection thrown out there by anyone with a platform. No one knows anything more than they knew two months ago. This same thing happens throughout the year, not just draft season. Lotta people are helplessly gullible.

Except one of the most trustworthy NFL insiders reported live on Nat'l tv Bryce Young is likely the #1 pick of the draft.

 

Sorry you can't accept that, but it's been clear since last year Bryce Young was the best QB prospect in his draft class. You can continue to spread false hope but the top insider already made it clear who the pick will be.

 

Get your #9 jersey and lets start celebrating our new franchise QB.

I’ve come around to Bryce. I really can convince myself to like both Bryce and Stroud lol. 
 

The exhausted view that “if Bryce was 6’3” he’s generational…” which I get…

 

Well you gotta take the guy and hope he doesn’t get crushed. Take a chance. 
 

 

 

…but if the Texans YOLO’d #2 and #12 to swap picks…that makes things complicated.

    • The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.
    • Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
    • This KC team isn't the juggernaut it once was.  How many one score games have they won this season?  How many of those one score wins would probably have been loses if Mahomes wasn't the QB?  Their secondary is vulnerable and it was obvious today.  Grandpa Thielen was able to get open at will all game long. Bryce played well, but thinking this is the exact same KC defense Young was able to move the ball against as last year isn't going to compute.  Last year's KC defense was #2 overall.  They have regressed. I've said it before, Bryce can move the ball before the red zone, but once there, he struggles.  He is not a threat with his legs and the passing windows get much tighter.  He's not turning the ball over, so that is a great place to start and build upon.  I still question much better he can get.  Beyond a game manager?  I highly doubt it.
