I wanna pick Chaos so bad... but if the team is selecting #1 (or #2 for that matter), I'd prefer it be either Young or Stroud. Both have their positives, and these coaches know more about NFL QBs then I can ever hope to dream of, so I'm going to trust in the process this go around.

I don't really give a flying rat's ass if there's chaos among fans as long as the pick ultimately turns out to be the right one.

I'll say this:

I was on the CJ Train before we traded up to 1 because I figured Young would be gone and we'd get a shot at CJ. Then we traded up so I've been looking at both prospects intently. 

From a pure QB standpoint, I like Bryce Young better. He is ahead of CJ in terms of reading defenses, directing his offense, and handling pressure. He also seems to process what's in front of him quicker than Stroud. The more tape I see, the less I care how small he is. Dude just knows how to play QB, and he's better at it right now than anyone else in the class. RIGHT NOW. Not in the future, but as things currently stand. 

Saying all that, I'm good with either Young or Stroud because I think Stroud has the ability to become a good NFL QB as well. But as things currently stand my rankings are:

1a - Young

1b - Stroud

My football knowledge and prowess is well documented around here…

…everyone knows I’m an idiot. That said, I wanted Stroud but am warming to Young. I’ll be excited for either and I recognize I know less than @Jon Snow

Heh 😄

I've said numerous times there is absolutely nothing wrong with not knowing all the intricacies of football. It's a complicated game.

It's the acting like you know when you really don't that's annoying. Not knowing though? Never a big deal.

It's supposed to be fun, right? 🙂

If I'm making the pick, it's Stroud. There are certainly things about him that concern me, but I think he's the best overall choice.

I could live with Young. He's everything I would typically want in a quarterback, but his size scares me.

Levis and Richardson both strike me as physical specimens that you'd have to teach the quarterback position to, and I'm not a fan of that model.

Ultimately I'll trust whatever the staff decides, but Stroud would make that easier.

Pretty much this.

The closer we get to the draft, and the more we move along this process towards the draft, the more I think the pick is going to be Young. I’m excited about that, because Young has everything you look for and more in a QB. His height and size is an issue, but I don’t think it’s an issue that can’t be overcome.

 

Stroud is who I’ve wanted for months now, and he’s the guy i ultimately hope we pull the trigger on. I’ll be fine with either of those 2. They both seem to be great young men who have shown the ability to lead, and they play outstanding ball. Both would be great faces for a franchise.

But can it be compensated for? 🤔

I'm not worried about him making plays at the next level.  He is a very bright man and I think he can be great.  It's why I'm not upset if we draft him, I will be happy in fact.  I'm just concerned his body won't be able to hold up after so many hits from NFL players.  I know some of us don't like to hear it, but size does matter to a degree...

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By MHS831 · Posted

      What the hell?  How is presenting Cam's stats hating him?  The point is not to hate Cam, it is to show you how similar Jones is to him and why you take a look at him.  I mentioned Jones has the skill set to take a look--the response is, "look at his 5 years of performance."  So I compare him to the greatest QB in franchise history, and the stats are similar--while Jones was in a worse situation.  Now that is "hating?"  Come on.  This is a meritless, ignorant, personal attack because you are wrong.  Just stop it.  You all attack the poster when you have nothing.  So saying "we should consider a guy with similar stats and size to Cam Newton" is now hating Cam and making me a Jones super fan- that is just stupid.

      So a starting QB with 5+ years of experience and whose stats are very similar (if you do math) with Cam Newton's stats (who had much better defenses and offensive lines) here becomes available, and Bryce is your QB and you do NOT kick the tires on Jones.  You simply call him a "broken toy" and do nothing.  That sounds like a very passive approach.  Remember, you labeled him, not the stats he accumulated on some pretty bad teams since 2019.  I am telling you what a smart GM would do, and even if Jones is broken and can't be fixed, you make that determination after giving the matter due diligence.  You and Completely are simply forcing your opinions about his play into logic, and the stats do not support them.  Put him in a better situation and he will do better, but in a bad situation, with some terrible offensive lines, WRs, and bad defenses,  he was on track to have stats that parallel Cam Newton--like it or not--numbers don't lie, nor does his size, arm strength, speed, and intelligence.  Broken? I am saying he is an interesting prospect and should not be overlooked by bias, misinformation, and context.
