I think the most likely result will be the Texans trading up from #2 to #1 to take Young, and they will pay for it in order to ensure someone like the Colts (#4) don't jump up above them and take him. Then the Bears at #2 will take the top PROSPECT which is Anderson from Bama, they can sure use him. That then opens up the Cardinals at #3 to potentially trade down for some good value for any team that wants to jump ahead of the Colts (again at #4) to snag Stroud. Edit: There are also still Richardson and Levis who will likely be 1st rounders. High potential 4 QBs in the 1st round this year. If I were the Bears, I wouldn't necessarily want to move back 1 spot. I mean they could trade it again, but I'd be looking for volume, not necessarily the highest picks. They already have a QB who has potential but they need the skill guys on both sides of the ball. If I were the Texans, I wouldn't give up a ton of draft capital for a QB when you already have Mills who is "good enough" for them right now. They need to put a real team around a QB first. Teams like the Colts, Panthers, etc. should be considering going for the #1 pick because they're much closer to being "A QB away."

Bryce Young is reportedly 5' 10 1/2" and 195 lbs. I don't think that is a good size for a QB in the first 10-15 picks of the draft.

I want to say he profiles at 6'4", 240 lbs, and a 4.4 40 time, and he has the strongest arm in the draft. He only has one season as a starter in college, so he's really lacking in experience. But he did show meaningful improvement as that season progressed. If he lands with the wrong coach/system, he will probably fail immediately, but if he goes somewhere good, he has the potential to be really fun. |

Did people consider Tebow to be an athletic freak? Most of the generic "comps" I've seen put him in the neighborhood of Josh Allen and Cam Newton, but he should be significantly faster than either of those guys while being about the same size. The question is how well he can be developed as a passer and what kind of scheme can a team put around him. |

Via WaPo: Daniel Snyder's demands anger NFL owners, renew talk of voting him out
Click To View Spoiler Washington Commanders owner Daniel Snyder and his attorneys have demanded that fellow NFL franchise owners and the league indemnify him against future legal liability and costs if he sells his team, two people with direct knowledge of the NFL's inner workings and the owners' attitudes said. Snyder's demands, which include a threat to sue if the indemnification condition is not met, have angered some owners and renewed discussion about the possibility of taking a vote to remove him from ownership of the Commanders if he does not sell the franchise, according to the people, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the topic and the legal threat. "He wants indemnification if he sells," one of those people said, adding that the owners regard the demand as "ridiculous" and "absurd" and believe that Snyder should provide legal indemnification to the other owners for any legal claims that may arise from his and the team's actions. The owners "definitely" would move toward a vote to remove Snyder from ownership of his team if he does not sell the franchise, that person said. Such a vote would require support by at least three-quarters of the owners. The other person who confirmed Snyder's demands added that the dispute "could get messy." Snyder is “shutting out” Bezos in the sale process to this point, a person familiar with the situation said, confirming reports by the New York Post and the Athletic. Snyder has “rebuffed every effort” by Bezos to move forward toward purchasing the team, according to that person, who said Snyder is acting “out of spite” because of Bezos’s ownership of The Post. It is not clear whether Snyder’s approach represents a final decision or posturing as part of a negotiating strategy. Sticking right in line with those rumors I previously reported. Looking more and more like Snyder is going to refuse to sell and the league will have to kick him out if they want him gone. |

Quoted: @HK Via SportsNaut: NFL owners 'concerned' Washington Commanders sale process really a sham TLDR: They think Snyder hates Bezos due to the WaPo stories about Snyder and he wants to either block Bezos from buying the team or milk him for way more than market value and in the end will end up not selling. Click To View Spoiler Some owners around the NFL are reportedly growing concerned that the Washington Commanders sale may not be a good-faith attempt by owner Daniel Snyder to actually sell off his majority control of the team. The questionable management style of the team over the last decade produced a groundswell from in and outside the NFL for Snyder to end his tenure as a league boss. After months of resistance, he eventually did begin the process to sell his control of the team in December and hired Bank of America to facilitate the process. However, the action is now closing in on a fourth month with no sale in sight. Several bids were put in at the end of the year, but none came close to Snyder's reported asking price of $6 billion - which would be a record amount for the sale of a professional sports team. The one individual that could easily purchase the Washington Commanders, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, reportedly has interest but is viewed as an enemy by Snyder due to his ownership of the Washington Post. A publication that has put a bright spotlight on the negatives of Snyder's time as Commander's boss. Now, with stories last week claiming Snyder is trying to block Bezos - one of the wealthiest men on Earth - from putting in a bid, Front Office Sports reported on Monday that there is now a growing concern in the league that the Commanders boss may not be acting in good faith when it comes to a Washington sale. One source claimed that Bezos being blocked from a bid could be an attempt by Snyder to squeeze well beyond $6 billion out of the former Amazon CEO in a purchase. The outlet also claims that quite a few NFL owners are "vexed" about the situation because some theorize the hurdles that keep arising are all just an attempt by Snyder to bog down the process and eventually retain control of the team.
