Tepper + Young

As someone said, Tepper made his money by being good at math and letting the data tell him what to do.

I think his dream was to come into the NFL and revolutionize it by using analytical tools to get all the best players etc. Like a type of money ball.

The problem is the data just isn’t there at the college level.

I've worked with private equity guys in my previous life before retiring and they are INFURIATING to work with. No common sense, just data, just what the excel sheets tell them, that's why it is VERY easy to engineer fraud in the financial markets and people like Elizabeth Holmes, Friedman, Adam Neumann exist, they hoodwink investors with the pitch they want to hear. 

 

The S2 is an easy test to manipulate and you know why, wonderboy took it multiple times

When it came time for the gut check items like watching him sling it at the combine, he sat out of that test

when it came time to watch the tape of Stroud SHREDDING the Georgia defense that is as close to an NFL D you will find in College, we choose to fall back on analytical data telling us Young was better

Does anyone know why DT was so infatuated with Young? Why he liked him over stroud? Its obvious he preferred him but i’m not sure why…

Most shitbags on here were also smothering that midget fugers nuts in golden butter. Wanting CJ over Young was borderline expulsion from this shithole.

Bryce doesn’t have that Alpha that Cam, Jake, Brady, Brees….I could go on and on. Stroud has that Alpha. Bryce reminds me of a weak puppy left out in the cold. There is nothing leader about this soft spoken baby. He ain’t it. 

the kid has NO DAWG in him. He's like mashed potatoes, spineless, no grit, no fire in his belly.

It’s like if powder puff football had a QB with a head cheerleader as the QB. Bryce would be the backup. This guy is so soft he would pass up free seconds at thanksgiving.  He is such a beta that he would let you have his girlfriend.

Why did most on here feel the same way? 
 

According to the majority of this board, Stroud wouldn’t excel in the league because he didn’t score well on a test and they were sold on Bryce being some generational talent.

Most folks on here just parrot what the talking heads tell them and convince themselves it's a conclusion they arrived at on their own.

Once you realize this, society as a whole starts to make a lot more sense.

In short (no pun intended), Young was amazing at playing X-box

 

This is like hiring only Harvard grads because they are "smart". I can't tell you in my previous line of work how many Harvard grads I met that were book smart but street idiotic. Chris Weinke comes to mind here, great QB mind, horrible QB athlete, we basically drafted a noodle armed Weinke.

The S2 Eval requires taking the test on a specialized laptop or XBOX. Individual athletes can take The S2 Eval at one of our S2 Labs across the country. Additional labs will be opening soon.

 

Coaches, teams, and tournament and camp organizers can book the S2 Mobile Lab, which will bring an S2 testing facility to you – anywhere across the country.

My work as well when a VP asked me to take his latest Harvard grad onto my team…I was ‘what does he do….i need someone who can ‘do’ vs read about what others have done ‘

I employed 3 Harvard graduates in my company before I sold it, I am a UNCC graduate, let that sink in.

Oh I know this. My question was rhetorical. I’m used to being told I don’t know anything and later sitting back and watching the crow eating fest.

    • This is why it's probably going to be hard to trade down. This draft is fairly light on top tier talent but pretty deep in talent of that next tier down. I don't think there's going to be a lot of teams clamoring to move up and numerous teams might be entertaining moving down. Not a good market to trade down if that's the case. 
    • And if they can't find a reasonable trade down (I think we would need a 2nd rounder this year bare minimum to make any trade down worth it). I would definitely expect Dan to trade UP for an EDGE or LB in the top half of R2. Just makes too much sense. We also have a plethora of mid round picks to use as ammo. 
    • I don't mean to make this a mock draft thread particularly,  but every time I do a mock I have been investigating the talent that goes off the board between picks 8 and our low 2nd rounder pick 57. There is a gargantuan amount of talent still left on the board in the top half of the 2nd round every time I do one. Losing our original 2nd round pick to the Bears as the last pick of the Bryce trade stings badly .  I'm particularly looking at elite players like Carson Schwesinger (LB), Luther Burden (WR), Matthew Golden (WR), Maxwell Hairston (CB) , Nick Scourton , Landon Jackson, Donavan Ezeraku (all DEs/OLBs) . The sweet spot in this draft really feels like pick 15 to 40 - ish. This is why the Bears should be making bank with this draft. I don't know how realistic a trade down is from 8, but if we could pick up any teams higher 2nd rounder and still grab their 1st? We'd be cooking with gas man.  Say for example we get Tet McMillan at pick 8, if you wait all the way to 57 you stand the chance of not getting any impact pass rushers in this draft. And I don't think this team can afford that.  I'd personally love for them to take a break from drafting wrs in R1 or R2 (i think we've taken one in the top 2 rounds in the majority of the past few years), and stick to repairing the nfls worse defense in history (in terms of total points against iirc, or was it yards? Also included my most recent mock as an example . Don't put too much into the  late round selections lol
