Oof, hope he learns to kick under pressure. High % is great and all but I’d rather a 90% guy that just misses long attempts early in the game, not chip shots when the game is on the line

Absolutely. I’ve been talking about that since halfway through the season. The reason some people are saying the Ga game was an eye opener is because they weren’t watching him until that playoff game

That’s what I saw that I was talking about above

Saw something earlier that said five teams were in negotiations to trade for Hopkins, Panthers weren’t one of them. Doesn’t mean a whole lot, but it’s not nothing.

https://www.instagram.com/reel/CqJNGTKszZG/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y= Reich doesn’t look nearly as enamored in that parting of ways as he did with Stroud. Looks almost disinterested.

I’d be satisfied with Young but I want Stroud. “Small” QBs have had injury problems lately, like Murray and Tua and they’re both bigger. Stroud is also a better passer. The only thing Young is better at is scramble drills. But he’s still a good enough passer that I’d be happy with either. They’re roughly equal in the mental aspect, Stroud has an advantage in throwing ability and Young had an advantage in scrambling. The gap is relatively small in both circumstances. Even setting size concerns aside I’ll take the better thrower over the better scrambler, but if Young is the one Reich wants I’ll trust his decision.

Someone posted a graphic some time ago, showing the defenses OSU faced this year were way better than the defenses Alabama faced.

If Bryce was 6’3 he still wouldn’t throw as well as Stroud and Stroud would still be my pick.

The unique info from this video is RG3 talking about Stroud “chip on his shoulder”, a peek at Stroud’s mentality and attitude that I’ve only seen briefly mentioned before. Orlovsky’s breakdown is interesting too, but not anything particularly new. The stuff I’m referring to starts around the middle part of the video.

One thing unique I took from this video is the bias against smaller receivers. If this Colts guy is to be believed, the Downs, Flowers, Dell fans aren’t going to be happy heh. If we do take a receiver in the first few rounds it’ll probably be one of the very few bigger receivers

The panthers guy said Ken Wisenhunt’s last name like six different ways, and never correctly lol

I mostly agree with you. But I don’t necessarily buy that Tepper particularly wants Young or Richardson more than Stroud. I think that is all part of the misdirection game they’re playing, whether that’s at the NFL’s behest to keep the mystery alive or it’s because there’s the outside chance we can hustle a pick out of the Texans while still getting our guy. No matter what it is, Tepper will let Reich take his guy because if Tepper has proven anything in his tenure as owner it’s that he’s the furtherest thing from a meddling owner. If anything he should have been meddling more while Rhule was here.

That’s why you gotta watch for yourself. Those analyses are mostly self parroting circle jerks. At the combine in the velocity measurement he threw equal to Levis and 1 mph less Richardson, the guys with the “great” arms. He also threw just as deep as Richardson in the deep drill. “Elite” might be a slight stretch for him, but he’s way better than “good”. Watching his games reinforces that, not only deep balls but driving the mid throws when necessary. Receivers don’t have to wait on his passes.

Burns is not a liability in the run game. That’s a huddle myth. Since his second year he’s been decent at it, especially setting an edge to force RBs inside. Brown is not just a run stuffer, he’s a disrupter who allows everyone around him to be better. Top ten DTs don’t have to be pass rushing DTs, the guys like Brown and Star might not get the flashy stats themselves but they allow everyone around them to play better and that’s critical for a defense. Look at what our defense was like after Star left. Huge drop off (7th total defense, 3rd vs run in 2017, 15th total, 12th vs run in 2018). That’s mostly the loss of Star. If we lost Brown teams could moonwalk for first downs.

That’d be nice but highly unlikely heh

Everybody wants to get a look at our new QB

Didn’t see this posted already

Definitely A. That’s even IF you take these write ups as gospel (they’re not)

Absolutely the right call. Burns or Brown would have been equal to two firsts if they were included. Both are better than Moore at their respective positions, and harder to replace.

This

Perfect type of player to pair with Stroud. Dependable hands and dependable routes so Stroud’s timing and accuracy can be taken full advantage of.
