Not a fan of trading down anymore. It’s awesome on draft day but in Fitt’s tenure it hasn’t really worked out. I would rather stick to 39 or even trade up if you have a first round grade on someone that falls.

Problem with mentioning Russell Wilson is that he fell to the third round

Not sold on Fields yet

I think CB is the biggest need

Exactly people comparing this to SAT is just dumb. It’s not an Intelligence test, it purely measures processing speed of your brain which you can’t learn or get better at, maybe marginally.

S2 test may seem laughable but I don’t think it’s something you can practice or get better at. Either your brain can process visual information quickly or it can’t. it’s encouraging for AR15 and his future development. He reminds me of Josh Allen, he was also raw but was in a good situation to develop. Does anyone know what CJ’s score is?

Is that why they're not attending any of the dinners, pro days, interviews, etc.? It may be their final call, but you can bet your house that the Teppers will voice their opinions. While they may still say "decision is yours", if you're slightly leaning on a guy, and your boss has the opposite opinion, it may be enough to sway the decision.

Bryce Young -330 CJ Stroud +225 It was complete opposite just a week ago, but this coinides with the recent media rumors coming out about Nicole and David Tepper really being smitten by Bryce Young. I get the charisma and intangibles, but he doesn't have an elite physical quality over anyone else. And in the NFL, you have to have both. While Bryce Young may have better processing speed, CJ Stroud is not that far behind. Meanwhile, when it comes to physical traits (beyond just size), Stroud has the bigger arm and is more likely to be able to make the NFL throws required to get the ball in tighter windows.

Wow - where is all this Stroud hate coming from suddenly. I really hope the Panthers ignore the media noise and not overthink this decision. It needs to be Stroud. You've risked too much to get this pick wrong. His floor is an NFL starting QB, his ceiling is a top 10 QB.

Yeah - fair point. At this point I'm truly fine with either. I've gotten warmed up to the idea that it might be BY - so perhaps their strategy is actually working! LOL

Panthers may have some insider info that Texans want Bryce Young so the smoke is about getting them to give up a pick or two to move up to #1. That is the most likely scenario in all of this. Why would Panthers care if the fan base will be shocked or not. I'm pretty sure most will be excited anyway, no matter which of the two we pick. I still think it'll be CJ Stroud.

Which player do you think will benefit the most in the new scheme? Choose only one I actually think it will be Brian Burns. With his size and speed he will be more dominant in the pass rush coming off the edge. I predict more than 15 sacks this season.

The heated debate isn’t just on the Huddle. The general NFL media seems to be equally divided.

This may be the most dramatic number 1 pick in history

I don’t see it happening. I think Texans are also fine with either QB

I find it fascinating how the tide seems to turn as we get closer to the draft. A few weeks ago almost everyone wanted Stroud. What say you now?

Nice try but you’re grasping at straws

Nowhere near the same player

Back in the day, I used to love it on HBO.

Wow this is getting sadder with every step. Nobody will take him as a backup due to his personality likely to outshine the starting QB

wtf did I just read

Red Pill or the Blue Pill?
