Its fuging wild.  If bryces game is timing and precision route running then they got the absolute opposite type player.   A deep threat that is raw and has a limited route tree.   I think the kid would have been there at 39 easily.  I guess we will see how the 2nd round unfolds but the top centers are there, some good corners are still there and wr's are still there. 

morgan and canales specifically said his abilities fit their plans and what they want to do on offense. that’s why he was their guy. i presume they know more about their plans and their offense than you do, but i could be wrong.

I can understand not wanting Legette, but I really don't understand people shitting on the move to get back into the 1st to draft him.

Replace Legette with whatever WR you preferred, the move makes sense with the enormous contracts WRs are getting these days. The extra year of discounted play and contract control is worth it for a WR, not a center though.

So I really don't care that they could have had him today, we didn't surrender any future picks, we didn't lose any picks, we swapped our 2nd for their 1st and our 5th for their 6th. We moved up in a more important round, and down in a less important round.

32nd pick is getting a roughly 12 million dollar contract and control for 5 years.

33rd pick gets roughly 10 million and control for 4 years.

Monetarily, it makes sense and the logic of doing it is sound.

thats easy, you could literally get the same guy at 33 and you can field calls for a potential deal.  The 5th year option doesnt move the needle for a variety of reasons and we gave up almost 2 rounds worth with the pick flip

I was surprised at how overwhelmingly the pick was considered a good one. 

It's really just like 5 people here shitting on it.

I wasn't a big fan of it but I'm not going to repeat myself over and over like the few.

Come on LG. I could pull a bunch of those for every QB in the NFL. Even the second QB picked in last year's draft. Rookie of the year. Pro bowler. Second coming...

Bryce's problem is that he didn't throw enough of those. He definitely needs to take more shots downfield. 

His downfield accuracy was a concern in college too. It was just exacerbated at the NFL level. Most flaws are.

the crowd that makes absolutely everything related to Bryce young and implodes over it every time literally anything happens has made this place an anti intellectual black hole

Fair. Hopefully that's worked out this season. Every passing game needs at least a threat of a deep ball.

His footwork needs a lot of work. He's usually back there river dancing. Just look at the clip I posted. His feet are all over the place.

we have it on good authority on here that he did absolutely nothing all off season, and somehow shrunk while he was at it.

      My Personal Takeaway from This Game vs Cheifs

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      What I really learned here is that the Carolina Panthers aren't anywhere near as bad as I initially thought they were earlier this year.  We've got a young and growing offense with some promising parts. But it still needs some tweaks and improvements.  We really still could still use a dominant #1 WR. But Chubba,  Legette, Coker,  and J.Sanders have generally looked decent. Bryce took a big leap after the benching. We can score enough points to keep pace with 2x defending super bowl champions, so offense isn't a huge issue. Main thing that needs improvement is defense. We sorely need a CB 2, and a number of new players at Dline and LB.  We're not quite as bad at edge with Wonnum showing promise.  But we definitely need 1 or 2 more edges Clowney is old.  Run D is probably worse prevailing theme these past couple years. We really need a good young stud or two to pair with Derrick Brown and another LB to pair up with Trevin Wallace. If Morgan and Canales can focus on rebuilding the defense this off-season and possibly going out and getting a #1 WR. This team could easily be somewhere around 7-10 to 10-7 and flirting with playoffs in 1 or 2 seasons. Overall this game has made me feel alot more positive about the direction of the team.

      With our picks we need pass rush, lb, Safety, a speedster yac wr, o line depth and I still want a mid round qb. We got 9 picks and 8 in the first 5 rounds. If they pull Off another solid draft we be cooking.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By frankw · Posted

      We had one passing touchdown against the Giants and one passing touchdown against the Chiefs today. Yes a good backup can replicate that. And that is why Andy Dalton in significantly less games has the same number of 30 point outings as Bryce Young. I am on board with you guys about wanting to be hopeful for the future. Today was a good performance to build on especially at home. But let's please keep things in perspective. BTW the Bucs who honestly aren't even that good blew the doors off the Giants today after we went to overtime against them with 17 points. Again. Perspective.
