Look at Tank next to Stroud. Tank and Young are very close to the same size.
The memes would be never ending if the Texans had Young and Tank.

Lmao!!!Can you imagine what he'd look like if he had to wear those large Guardian safety helmets in practice? Have to wonder if he would be strong enough to lift his head.

Unless, of course, he opted to wear the Cleveland Browns version.

This is the best evaluation of Bryce Young I have heard yet. Tank Dell's evaluation is also interesting to listen to.

There's a lot of comparing these players vs. the norm. But what's relevant is comparing them to players to the current players in the draft class. All things equal, then sure. I'm taking the bigger player. But I am not taking a player of lesser skill, ability, and production just because of their size. Young, Dell, and Kancey produced. And have skills. I'm more willing to project those things than how a player fits a certain mold.This is the best evaluation of Bryce Young I have heard yet. Tank Dell's evaluation is also interesting to listen to.
It's going to be interesting watching the Browns cap situation over the next couple of years... before this trade or signing of draft picks, they had $7M for this year and (-$63M) in 2024TRADE: Vikings Trade OLB Za'Darius Smith To Browns
The Cleveland Browns have traded for Vikings veteran OLB Za'Darius Smith on Friday, according to Ian Rapoport. Here's the full breakdown of the trade agreement: Browns receive: LB Za'Darius Smith 2025 6th round pick 2025nfltraderumors.co

Have you seen the Saints that went from 30m over to 26m under? All of their top 7 have $1m salaries, but have a 25'45m dead cap hit. Eventually, if someone gets hurt or retires or socks, it's going to hurt really bad, but they've been doing it for at least 7 or 8 years.

Yes, but like you said, sooner or later it's going to bite them in the a$$ real hardThe cap is a traffic cone
Bryce won't be under center..............unless the Panthers figure out how to attach one of these to his helmet..........of course, without the NFL noticing................I guess on the bright side, when you barely have to squat down for the snap exchange, that's one less thing that can go wrong..
Flip side though, if the center ate too many beans.. He's going to blow Bryce Young off his feet. Yep, no way he would've made it here.

Is it me or can anyone else see a hardsnap getting stuck in Young’s face mask?
5'10 and an 1/8thMan, I knew Bryce was small... but wow.
Being on the runtier side and being 5'10 myself I hope he does well... but.... more so... I hope he survives.
New owner think Virginia will give twice amount Raiders got for new stadium.

On the bright side for Carolina. The defense has to find him to sack him.Man, I knew Bryce was small... but wow.

I dunno how good of a coach is McCown, and should we regret that he's not down here in Houston grooming CJ instead of being up in Carolina working with Young ?King propagates the disingenuous company line that Young has only sustained one shoulder injury in college.
Otherwise a very good discussion on considerations of bringing along any rookie QB.

How Panthers are approaching Young’s development
From all feedback I have received, as far a QB coach, he has been tops in handing down experience to all those younger QBs he worked with on all teams he has been on.I dunno how good of a coach is McCown, and should we regret that he's not down here in Houston grooming CJ instead of being up in Carolina working with Young ?
He didn't want to be here... I don't want him here.should we regret that he's not down here in Houston grooming CJ instead of being up in Carolina working with Young ?
He didn't want to be here... I don't want him here.
probably notDid Demeco even offer him an interview?
This is what happens when crooks deal with crooks. I'm glad I withdrew my bid before all this happened! View attachment 12142

Brian Davis’s company seeks $500 billion over failed Commanders purchase
Posted by Mike Florio on May 20, 2023, 9:21 AM
The very strange situation regarding the failed effort by former Duke basketball and NBA player Brian Davis to buy the Washington Commanders could get more strange, sooner than later.
For starters, A.J. Perez of FrontOfficeSports.com reports that Davis’s company, Urban Echo Energy, seeks $500 billion in damages from Bank of America in the lawsuit filed over the alleged failure of Bank of America to communicate a $7.1 billion offer to Commanders owner Daniel Snyder.
https://yeahmotor.com/funny/funny-t-shirts-on-amazon/
In most civil cases, a specific figure is not required in the opening complaint. Damages will be determined through the proceedings. Usually when a dollar amount is demanded — especially a high one — it’s for publicity purposes. And a $500 billion demand will generate plenty of publicity.
The more relevant number, for now, is $5 billion. That’s the amount of the bank draft that allegedly was tendered to Bank of America by Urban Echo. As noted by sports betting attorney Daniel Wallach, the $5 billion apparently comes from the Estate of Severino Garcia Sta. Romana. As also noted by Wallach, research regarding the Estate of Severino Garcia Sta. Romana quickly leads to an “incredible tale of large quantities of gold illegally acquired by former Philippines President Ferdinand Marcos from a CIA operative.”
The tale of Brian Davis’s effort to buy the Commanders already has become incredible. It could become even more incredible as this litigation plays out — especially if the end game is to challenge the NFL’s rules regarding who can buy a team and where the money can come from.
Did not any intelligent person foresee this. Next thing we'll hear is that organized crime is getting involved. From what I've heard from friends of mine in Las Vegas, gambling in person and online is already infiltrated.

Report: NFL is investigating a new wave of violations of gambling policy
Posted by Mike Florio on May 22, 2023, 10:37 AM EDT
As the NFL makes more and more money from legalized gambling, the NFL faces more and more problems from the involvement of players and others connected to the game in wagering on sports.
David Purdum of ESPN.com reports that the NFL is currently investigating a new wave of potential violations of its gambling policy. This development comes just weeks after five players were suspended either for betting on pro football (minimum of one year) or betting on other sports while on team property (six games).
No details have been provided regarding the nature of the violations. It’s one thing for the NFL to have evidence fall into its laps, as it does when sports books tell the league that players and/or non-players are using gambling apps on their own phone. It’s quite another to be proactive and creative in the exploration of more subtle efforts to place bets, the possibility of people influencing the outcome of certain waiters, and/or the handling of inside information.
The league needs to take it seriously. Just one scandal can spark legislation and/or prosecution and/or regulation.
And if it’s not an issue that lands front and center on the agenda for the spring meetings in Minneapolis, it definitely should be.
I don't like the proprosed rule either.

Opposition increases to new fair catch rule
Posted by Mike Florio on May 20, 2023, 8:11 PM EDT
The next evolution in the kickoff rule was supposed to be the adoption of the NCAA-style rule that results in a fair catch inside the 25 being placed at the 25. That apparently won’t be happening.
As recently explained by Albert Breer of SI.com, special-teams players and coaches have accelerated the opposition to the rule.
The proposal was passed unanimously by the Competition Committee in March. The issue was tabled from March to May, an acknowledgement that the vote would have failed if it had happened at the annual meeting in Arizona.
Based on Breer’s report, it sounds as if it’s even more likely to fail now.
The issue, according to Breer, was discussed last week during a regularly-scheduled call among the league’s special-teams coordinators. They decided to recruit special-teams players to participate in active opposition against the rule.
One concern with the rule is that it will spark more squib kicks inside the 25, which couldn’t be fair caught and would have to be returned. That could create more, not less, chaos on special teams.
The proposed change comes from an overriding desire to make the most dangerous play in the game, as the league has called it, more safe. It’s been a focal point for the past decade or so, with gradual changes aimed at making the play safer.
It started with efforts to spark fewer returns. Several years ago, a more comprehensive change to the rules was devised to reduce the full-speed nature of the impacts during kick returns.
One question that emerged in the aftermath of the March meetings was whether playing surface has a role in the question of injuries during kickoff returns.
If switching to grass could make the play safer, it’s another reason to switch to grass. But the NFL has no desire to do it, because it would be expensive to do so.
So in lieu of spending a little extra money to make the game safer in all phases, the NFL would rather make dramatic changes to one of the most important aspects of special teams.
The nfl really needs to adopt one of these spring football leagues, like the xfl. They can use a minor league to get a better look at players (already do) but they could also try out rule changes and collect some data before making changes in the big league.
That said, i actually like the way the xfl does kickoffs. The powers that be may want to look at that and see if its a viable option for the nfl.
