Is Bryce's size the reason you prefer Stroud?

I personally prefer Stroud because of his pinpoint accuracy and ability to drive the ball downfield.  I think he is slightly better than Young in both those areas.

Nickel IS the base package in the modern NFL. You're in nickel probably at least 75% of the time.

we are not a base of nickel. We are a 3-4 base. You dont put a nickel package on the field against a jumbo or 21 or 22 offensive package. Lions did that against us last year..... how did that turn out? 

Coach Campbell even said that he was stubborn and stayed in nickel bc he thought it would eventually work.

Reich: you can't teach speed at Wr. Huddle logic, we are definitely going to try and trade for Tyreek Hill.

Yep - and #1 receivers are lining up in the slot more than ever

Good grief man. Go argue with Scott Fitterer. The man stood right there at the podium and said you're in nickel 75-80% of snaps.

You really cant read to much into any of this....Like Reich was really gonna say he only likes big QBs??? Come on Lol

Fitt: the QB has to be able to throw the ball

Huddle: OMG! Young throws the ball! It’s Young!

I hope we'll have Horn travel with the opposing #1. In that case, he'll probably be playing nickel 25-30% of the time.

Same. 

There’s also 2-3 plays every game where Stroud throws a dot while on the move. There’s this narrative going around that it only happened in the Georgia game and that’s far from the truth 

Young for me is just someone who always seems to come up big when needed the most. Their losses weren’t his fault. He’s a playmaker who keeps gets doubted. I feel like his career is going to play out similar. Also doubted due to his height but just continues to come up big when needed the most

They’ve done a good job on keeping ppl guessing

[LinvilleGorge]

Honestly, I'm fine with Young or Stroud. Looking back, one will likely end up considerably better than the other in the NFL. Hopefully we end up with the better one.

you think base means how often you are in a certain package. Thats not what it is ... its based on how you assemble the roster. 3-4 completely changes for your talent acquisitions for your dline and lbers vs 4-3. 

You are taking this stuff like its a madden playbook, rather than how you assemble your franchise.

[Lame Duck]

People read too much in what Fitts says.  They’ll keep it hush hush until last minute.  The whole point of draft is to create excitement and uncertainty.

If it is that’s not a bad thing he’s the best qb may be a little shorter then we want but he does what elite qbs do. Process quickly deliver accurately now if we surround him like it seems we want to he’ll go out and look like he does at bama we should have a top notch qb.
