Adam Schefter: Bryce Young is believed to be favorite for #1 for the Panthers right now

[ncsfinest21]

If Houston is in love with Young. Trade that pick for a 2nd and 3rd next year.

Stroud handling pressure worries me about as much as Bryce’s size does. As long as we aren’t talking Levis im all good.

Agreed…there is risk.  There always is a risk.  He is legit very small.  Normally I would not pick a player this small.  I waffle myself.  But…he is so great at playing the position it trumps that for me.  CMC was too small to play RB but he was just different 

CMC got injured for the past 3 years of his panthers years here because he was undersized. I love CMC but he was injury prone due to his size.

He led his team to an amazing victory run this season.  And didn’t get injured.  We all know Carolina was shelving him when he could have played

While yes, it still wasnt with the Panthers. And by the time he came back to play those years he got injured, there was nothing to play for.

That’s fair, but Young would not be taking the hits CMC did as a running back. Young has always been good at navigating the pocket and getting out of harm’s way.

I agree but the NFL is different. Bigger boys and faster pace. The reads aren't easy, defense more complex. That equals more time in the pocket and more hits or scrambling concerns

We have a superstar QB available and we can take him.  Sam Bowie and Akeem were bigger too but take Michael Jordan please.

If that were the case RGIII would be killing the league right now.

hahaha RG3 and Bryce Young are completely different QB's with different competition and records.

Technically it’s not fair. Unless there’s some statistical correlation between size and injury I’m not aware of. Still waiting on that evidence. Willing to change. Data me please.

It is possible this is a smokescreen to get Houston to trade up to #1.

 

Bryce has always been linked to Houston.

 

Just a week ago reports where we like Stroud. Now all of a sudden Schefter reports we like Bryce. We leaked this to get a pick from Houston. Well played Mr. Fitt...

Who do you think was the better QB the last 2 seasons?  Take size out of it?  Young or Stroud?

Totally different player…RG 3 couldn’t pass the ball

I can't give you chapter and verse but I do remember his 2021 injury was hamstring while he was running the ball. Had nothing to do with size and being hit. Anyone else remember CMC being "knocked out" of a game?
