Two things stick out for me:

  • Before the CHI trade they were tied steady to Young and there was little debate about it.
  • Stroud's agent is Deshaun Watson's. They won't avoid him forever but I can't imagine they're eager to work with him.

Little debate?   Dude you got a link?

People bring this up a lot but I don't think it really means anything. We don't know how their relationship is with the agent. Just because Watson forced his way out and was a problem doesn't mean they blame the agent at all. They got a lot out of that trade, possibly with the agent's help working together to get it. We just don't know or have any real insight into that situation.

Pretty sure BY has Watson's agent as well.

I've read that Young Is represented by two agencies with different duties. One is specifically assigned to contract negotiations. Don't remember the names.

Either way though, also have to remember that draft picks now have assigned values.

I've seen a lot of local media suddenly going to Young in their mock drafts. Ellis, Carolina Blitz, Newton, Sheena. It's not a small contingent.

Because they all read each others picks and interpret it as momentum building.

The only reason for the drama is a) we agreed to play the media game with NFL to draw and keep interest in the draft or b) we want Stroud or are legit "ok" with either enough to trade back with Houston and score more draft capital.  The more I hear Young is the pick the more I am leaning to "B".

I NEVER...EVER...want to have the #1 pick again.  No, it doesn't have anything to do with a crappy season that caused it.  That's actually tolerable compared to endless threads about exact same thing over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again.

      We looked like a competent NFL team PIE thread

      By Prowler2k18 · Posted

      We could easily pick apart yesterday’s game: dropped passes, blown coverages, bad tackling and red zone issues to name a few. But it was clear that this wasn’t the same team from earlier in the season. They fought back and hung with the champs until the end. That’s what I was excited to see and it gives me hope that we’re on the right track.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Pejorative Miscreant · Posted

      I think BY played well today and exceeded expectations. I will temper future expectations as he has to string together many games of consistent quality. One game doesn’t convince me that he is a franchise QB or even a guy you want to stick with for another season. One game doesn’t erase all the negative play and limitations from the past couple of years. I hope he balls out and continues to get better but for me the verdict is still out   That said, I think he gave the team and fans hope yesterday which is a lot more than what we had when we woke up Sunday morning.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By Ricky Prickles · Posted

      He was vastly improved today and we need to see more of Bryce the rest of the season to continue evaluate him in order to decide what the heck to do with him at the end of the season. He must play at least like this and improve more from here the rest of the season in order for me to keep him. No more 123 yard passing games and want to see at least this output weekly from him. If this is Bruce improving slowly over time then Canales is even better with developing QB's than I thought he was but still too early to tell and we need to see him the rest of the way as he has at very least earned back the starting gig moving forward.
