Care to share how you would scheme around a qb with less that ideal arm strength and not being able to stand tall in the pocket? How about when he gets up there in the years do you think he will be an elite qb when whatever physical skills he has diminish..I'm interested to know or all you can do is post links and poo all day

The silence could very well be the fact that people are tired of your shtick.

At this point you're coming off the folk that hated the Cam pick. Most people here have seen that before, & have a pretty good idea how it'll play out.

Every bad game, (& they will happen) you come off like you'll be front & center screaming I told you so. 

Every good game, (& they will happen) you come off like you'll be busy on those days.

If Young gets injured & Stroud wrecks the league. You come off like you'll ride that for the next 30 years.

If Stroud gets injured & Young wrecks the league, you come off like you'll be grateful that others will be too happy to care about this poo & you get to be a fan.

As for scheming around his deficiencies,  I wouldn't.

thank you for coming neel GIF by NeelOfficial

Less than ideal arm strength is a stretch.   He has more than enough arm strength. Not a cannon like Allen and Herbert.  But Strong enough.  It’s stronger than Tua’s.

And how to scheme it when he gets older?  Probably like what Sean Payton did with Bree’s his last 5+ years.  Short quick pass game

Don’t think you have to worry about Mayo Man.

But would suck if we traded to 1 for him.

Relax guys.  The draft is 24 hrs away and it won't matter anymore once the pick is made.  Just pull for whoever we select.  

Watch a Dan Morgan video to help you get through to the Draft.  He was the toughest MLB we ever had.  Not as great as Luke but a beast for sure.

For reference his thoughts on Johnny Football Manziel coming out when he was thought to be a surefire prospect..

Lol, manziel was a sure fire prospect? Only was picked in the first round because the browns owner was persuaded by a homeless man to take him.

    • While we're talking a fresh prospect that I happen to be a fan of, might as well get on a soapbox: Point 1 - He is not undersized by any means, his length is far above the mean His wingspan is in like the 85th percentile. An interesting note - his wingspan is 5 inches over Khalil Mack, 2 inches over Will Anderson's.  Only 1/2 inch away from the no-production yet size hyped 6'5 267 Shemar Stewart's. For comp - Ez's is around 83", arm length 34".  For NFL comp, the mean for wingspan is 80" and arms 33.5" at for starting EDGE defenders.  So it's not just my isolated comparisons. Point 2 - He isn't just a flashy "pass rush specialist" His film (and testing) shows elite quickness, hand work, and ability to play with the heads of OTs that normal prospects don't grasp. (see my prior post) Testing wise, one of the fastest 3-cones and short shuttles for an edge in years.  Fastest this year for both -- and those two drills are the ones teams look at for pass rushers, usually very indicative of success.  His quickness is off the charts. He's a guy that played well, showed well to those casually watching and those film-studying.  Then he goes out and tests well to back it up.  Apparently interviews super well.  So, I think it's all about his capacity/potential as a run defender.  That's really what it comes down to.  Can he be a 3-down guy or is he a specialist?  I see a 3-downer, his run defense is better than given credit for. A breakdown Ez vs. the NFL mean Arm Length: 34" vs. 33.5" (over) Wingspan: 83" vs. 80" (over) 3-Cone: 6.94 sec vs. 7.23 (WELL over, 95 percentile) Short Shuttle: 4.19 vs. 4.424 (over) Height: 6'2 1/2 vs. 6'3 (slight under) People look at the height a smidge under 6'3 and take that without considering the rest.   I think with Ez, it all comes down to what teams think his run defense upside is.  All it takes is one team - if they think he can become more that a passing down guy, then he could go high.  But if guys like Nik Bonitto and Haason Reddick can turn into these all-arounders, I don't see why this kid can't either who has higher pedigree and better measurables. Now, I prefer Graham, Walker inside, Will Johnson, Barron, and some others over him, but once we're in this tier outside of the top guys, I find the argument way more compelling for Ez over a Mykel Williams or Shemar Stewart.    
    • Well if we’re bringing this guy with character issues in for a visit why not consider Mike Green at 8!?
