Yeah the other 2 choices would have been Tua or Herbert, thankfully it wasn't Tua... CY hasn't done much this yr but we will see if he can turn that around starting Sunday. If he has another bad game against that horrible line, then something is very wrong
3 games in and people are giving up on CY?
Ridiculous.

I知 not saying he is a bad player .. I知 questioning is any Pass rusher worth #2 pick especially when we have so many needs .. we allready had a solid D line now we have spent 4 number one picks on a line that is not good .. No hate for CY just think we shoulda have explored getting multi picks for that spot ( maybe we tried and no takers) ..

I think the edge is just being too aggressive. Don't keep moving outside just because you have speed. Hold that pocket. Someone will break through. Some is coaching some is just player growth.

Any player is worth the #2 pick regardless of position (ST excluded). You do your research, determine your rankings, what your options are with your draft slot, and you draft the best player available. It's nonsense to suggest drafting for need - 5 years from now every player in that top 10 could be a waste of a pick except the guy you pick (if you played your cards right).
It's real easy to judge with hindsight.

Defensive linemen went 2-4 the previous year, and DEs in particular are going all the time at the top of the draft if they are worthy, so I don't know if you can say a pass rusher isn't worth the #2 pick. And if I remember correctly, CY was considered THE best player in that draft by pretty much everyone whose job it was to try to determine that.

Pass rusher might be the most important position other than quarterback these days. Trading back was obviously an option but doesn稚 always work out. CY will be just fine.
lol everyone is a draft expert in hindsight
Sounds like CY has some growing up to do, or maturing as Ron has repeatedly said lately.
He'll get there, he's too talented of a player and he's got the passion for the game.
He's certainly not the first player to struggle in year 2.

I disagree - we haven't seen anything to indicate he's putting the work in. But we do have a whole rack of commercials and game shows he's done - obviously doing those things with his free time indicates he's only in this for the money and fame.
