Bold Prediction: Todd McShay compares Alabama Quarterback Bryce Young to Patrick Mahomes
Todd McShay is a very good talent evaluator, but I think he may have jumped the gun on this bold comparison.
McShay joined Max McGee on Sportscenter and he was asked why Bryce Young should be the first overall pick and what he said next shocked the world.
“Listen, he’s undersized and I get it. He’s only five-foot-ten and a half, maybe five-foot-eleven, and 195 pounds. Hopefully, he gets to 200 pounds by the combine,” McShay said of Young, who was listed at six-foot and 194 pounds last season. “But he’s different.”
I am not sure how you can compare Bryce Young to a two-time MVP, two-time Super Bowl champion, five-time Pro Bowler, and two-time All-Pro just 80 games into his NFL career. It just puts too much pressure on the young quarterback.
