He's basically saying Stroud isn't good enough for the NFL yet.

Pauline is a pretty well known draft analyst, but this isn't a widely held opinion.

Oh yeah most college QBs aren’t. There is usually several weeks or longer of learning and still a lot of growing pains their rookie years.

Granted, but they have to meet a certain threshold to be ready for that, especially to be worthy of a first round pick.

Pauline is the only guy I've seen saying Stroud doesn't meet that standard.

Since the advent of social media, I feel like there has been way more group think on QB prospects. Not talking about Pauline here, but people that think of themselves as "experts" latch on to a take and stick with it and don't change their opinions. Everybody and their mother said the 2021 class was "can't miss" and they've been extremely underwhelming so far.

Credit to Pauline here for having a different take. I don't want anything to do with Stroud. I don't think he can lead a franchise. He was horrible when it counted yesterday. The Big Ten was horrendous this year and it is fair to question if he can operate without insanely elite WR's and adjust to what open windows are in the NFL.

I like Bryce the best, but the frame really concerns me. Not a fan of this QB class overall though.

I think if your top 5 there are lot of options, take your edge and you can always trade back in for a Levi's/Richardson or take a Penix/Duggan in the second. I think what Stroud really lacks is that leadership quality that you get no doubt from a Young/Levis/Penix/Duggan.

    • yeah. winter backpacking trips were the most miserable and amazing experiences. same with the coldest and snowiest hunting  experiences. i love being in it. makes for incredible memories. the worse it was, the more i ended up loving it. made the greatest memories.  i just want to get out of it afterwards.
    • I forgot about Jackson...definitely elite.  The sad part of your list is that 2 of them were 'there for the taking for the Panthers'.  Rumor has it that Hurney loved Herbert and was vetoed on trying to trade up.  And rumor has it that Frank & McCown wanted Stroud.  I believe both rumors.  
    • I went on a solo elk hunt in the Flat Tops. It was awesomely miserable. LOL It was a late season hunt, I think third season and it was forecasted to snap off cold with highs in the upper thirties and lows in the single digits. fug it, I'm going anyway. They were wrong. The highs were in the low 20s and the lows were in the negative teens. I shivered so hard the first night I thought my teeth were going to break. It was the only time I've ever been legit concerned that I might be in trouble. Crawled out of my sleeping bag and got a fire started and suffered through the night bundled up next to the fire. I slept the next two nights literally wearing every stitch of clothing I'd brought with Nalgenes full of near boiling water in the bottom of my sleeping bag. That was the only way to have non-frozen water in the morning anyway. There was about a foot of snow on the ground and the melt/freeze crust was almost enough to support your weight but you'd go crashing through just as you went or make your step. It was exhausting travel and every step sounded like a rifle shot. Hunting was basically impossible. I never saw an elk in those four days, only saw 5-6 deer. LOL It was brutal but I loved it. Absolutely beautiful country that is never been to before and haven't been back since. I needed that four day complete break from society fighting for my life against the elements. I'm weird like that.
