QB Bryce Young, CAR (1 Viewer)

[zamboni]

I'm not QB guru by any stretch, but logically it does stand to reason that small/short TDs have a tougher time of it seeing over these tall behemoths in front of them and being able to process everything at the same time.

A guy like Murray has been highly successful due to his scrambling ability to get out of the pocket, but Bryce doesn't seem to be that kind of QB. And a short pocket passer like Drew Brees thrived because, well he's Drew Brees, and also had a great ecosystem around him.

Those are just two glaring examples of smallish QBs and maybe Bryce can still learn to thrive despite some physical limitations if he's surrounded by a better offensive ecosystem. But the team better do that - and fast - or he's going to flame out in a few years.

He had a play this weekend where he tried to throw the ball away, but threw it backwards. His pocket awareness is still severely lacking

I hope he wasn't a wasted long term pick in 3 leagues.

Facing the Packers D every week is part of the answer, not part of the problem.

Football Perspective

Bryce Young is going to finish the 2023 season with the worst passer rating in the NFL, narrowly beating out 2-time defending champion Zach Wilson.

Could be a favorite draft target if they get another wideout somehow and a better coaching leader and scheme. They need a vocal veteran but odds are this team is going to be **** again next year

He just doesn't have it. This pick is going to haunt the Panthers for years. While he didn't have an average WR core (they were sub par, one of the worst in the league) I saw lots of games where Young just badly missed his receivers. Whatever accuracy he showed in college didn't translate this year. His size also isn't helping.

Will we be saying the same thing about Caleb Williams this time next year?

Same here. I roster him in 2 leagues and only didn’t get him in my 3rd because he went right before my pick so I “settled” for Stroud. So much random luck

I agree, I would bet your life on it.

He needs some weapons and protection and just let him play to his strengths. Let him play with his instincts, the other things he needs to know will come in time IMO.

I'm sure several of us drafted him over Stroud and will be haunted for a long time for it.

Win some, lose some! I took Young over Stroud. But, I also would've drafted Jeudy over Lamb, by a hair. But Jeudy was gone, and Lamb was still there. Take the guy that makes the most sense, and what happens happens, can't beat ourselves up.

Don't count out Young. I could not draft either but I would not be so fast to give up on Young, especially with Canales landing in Carolina. Young is a buy in my book. Rome was not built in a day and Carolina is no Rome. It might take a little time but he should show a pretty big leap this season. Canales is very talented and Young will have gone through a whole offseason and full camp where he is not a rookie. It can only get better.

You're correct, it wasn't built in a day, it was built between 2020 and 2023. Sorry, I couldn't resist.

I wish I didn’t roster him

Would you trade him for a late 3rd in a 1QB league?

My rough estimate before the draft puts the Penix/Nix level QB in the mid-late 3rd. As bad as Young was last year, I'd heavily consider him over those two.

Late third in rookie draft? That's where I got him and I've been sending other offers because of it.
He was better than this guy and that guy in college. A zillion rookie QBs stunk in the NFL that turned out to be good.
I wasn't seeking him out but oof I'd wayyy rather him than the 20th WR or fifth TE seventh RB or whatever happens to setup the late third.

Keeper leagues and smaller roster leagues, fine move on. They don't really offer patience as a league type. There isn't a better value cost/ceiling than this kid right now
