  1. That’s kind of how I feel. I’ve seen DJ taken out of games by solid defenses or CB play. You can’t really take away true WR1s IMO. I’ve had him in fantasy for several years and it’s hit or miss for elite production.
  2. Whoever drafts him might want to take the QB Sneak out of the playbook. It’s a shame because it’s a high percentage play.
  3. The funny thing is Stroud learned to throw/play the position by watching Drew Brees videos as @ladypantherstated in another thread.
  4. Agreed. Without Brown we would have had no run defense….
  5. Is DJ a #1 WR? He was one of my favorite players, but I feel like he was a great #2. He wasn’t a huge TD threat and would disappear some games with bad route running. Granted he had bad QB play which makes it hard to judge.
  6. Damn much faster than I thought. He doesn’t seem to play at that speed, but that just me with my inexperienced fan eyes talking.
  7. I feel like it’s being used a lot for Young to compensate for his size, but I really don’t see it as a weakness for Stroud. He finds his open WR.
  8. I get what you are saying but what makes people think Stroud isn’t as good at processing and progressions? I’ve seen him drop back and go through his reads on the regular while putting up great numbers.
  9. Yeah Shi is more quick/slot and TMJ is pretty fast, but I don't see him blowing the top off a defense or anything. He just had a great catch radius in college.
  10. Yeah that's another thing. Stroud isn't a bad processer. In fact he is very good at it. He had the top rating in all of the NCAA last year. Does Young have the edge in processing? Probably, but I've also seen him miss open looks due to lack of vision. @Wes21posted several clips of this I believe.
  11. Corral was #2 at Ole Miss. He had to change numbers because DJ already had #2 here. I'm not saying it's not Young, but Corral's number has nothing to do with it.
  12. Brock Osweiler was pretty big too for a counter point. I think what people are saying is gambling on a size outlier at 1 is too risky for some.
  13. It's getting closer! On a side note, Vegas is not sold on Levis at 1 @Carl Spackler should be able to sleep a little better.
  14. I was all in until I read the Drew Brees part... (kidding)
  15. Which one of these two played the tougher defenses? I keep hearing SEC is the best, but I honestly think it was a down year for SEC defenses and I've seen several BIG10 defenses ranked pretty high...
  16. Yeah I remember the UGA game how he kept saying he gave it his all and left it all on the field. He wasn't blaming the kicker or teammates he was just owning it.
  17. We also need to get faster at the WR position. Hurst (TE I know), Theilen, TMJ
  18. Yeah the GM and HC address the press and give what people think are "hints" at who they are drafting. Meanwhile Vegas doesn't flinch. The money knows not to take these press conferences too seriously....
  19. That's what I was thinking. I thought playing under pressure was his weakness? These numbers are telling a different story. It looks like he is just not that great outside of the pocket.
  20. Lucky for us our jobs aren't on the line. Well I guess the people whose jobs are make more than most of us will in a lifetime, so maybe we aren't so lucky after all...
  21. 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...
  22. I think we have a great staff that can develop and correct the weaknesses of Stroud’s game. Young’s weakness can’t be corrected, so I lean Stroud.
  23. The OSU QB thing is just a absurd talking point. From 1940 until 2022 only FOUR OSU QBs went in the first round. The first two were decades ago and the last 2 were Haskins and Fields (who I wouldn't call a bust yet). Always scout the player not the team.
