The league being split on stroud is exactly the scenario we need since we wont be picking number one or maybe even top 5. 

Of the 4 choices in the first round, I guess I'm in the Stroud camp...reluctantly.  Tua is like on steroids compared to Young and Tua stays beat up.  Levis just doesn't have what it takes and Richardson is either a bust or a minimum of a 3-year project.

If you force me to take a QB the only one is Stroud but even, he worries me.

Still onboard with McCall.  There isn't a clear number 1 QB for me this year.  I haven't read through this entire thread so not sure if this has been posted but it's a pretty good writeup.

Funny thing is some draft sites have him sitting as a 7th rounder or UDFA right now.  If he declares and once scouts get eyes on him, his draft stock will jump.  I agree with the article and I've said this all along, his peak will be the 2nd round, no way the first.  The 3rd round is the sweet spot.   Depending on how hot his stock gets, I'd like to use a day 2 pick on him, that is if we don't take a QB in the first round obviously. 

I'm staying the course though, Michael Mayer in the first round.

For all those people pounding the table for a QB and upset we didn't tank hard enough to get "The Guy", look at this track record for those still around starting/contributing:

2011-Andy Dalton: Rd3-#35

2012-Ryan Tannehill: Rd1-#8, Russell Wilson: Rd3-#12

2013-Geno Smith:Rd2-#7

2014-Derek Carr: Rd2-#4, Jimmy G. Rd2-#30

2015-BOTH BENCHED****Jameis Winston: Rd1-#1, Marucs Mariota: Rd1-#2

2016-*Jared Goff: Rd1-#1, *Carson Wentz-Rd1-#2, Jacoby Brissettt: Rd3-#29, Dak Prescott: Rd4-#37

*cast-offs from draft team as 'franchise QBs.'

2017-Patrick Mahommes:Rd1-#10, Deshaun Watson: Rd1-#12

2018-Baker Mayfield: Rd1-#1, Sam Darnold: Rd1-#3, Josh Allen: Rd1-#7, Lamar Jackson: Rd1-#32

2019-Kyler Murray: Rd1-#1, Daniel Jones: Rd1-#6

***2020-2022 are still on rookie deals, so the jury is still out on them.***

Let that sink in guys.  Kyler is the ONLY entrenched former #1 overall that is still standing.  His play is marginal at best.  So you see, a team doesn't have to tank for the #1 overall pick to get their QB.

Oh well, McCall entered the transfer portal.  I guess he's going to try to go to a bigger school that runs a more traditional/pro style offense to boost his draft stock.

This QB class keeps getting thinner and thinner.

Is it boosting draft stock or taking more NIL money than what a rookie deal would have paid him?

Both.  I can see him pulling a Russell Wilson and going to a competitive program lacking a QB for a year, putting that team in serious contention and cementing his stock. He's got to stay healthy though.  Missing just a few games this year hurt his stock some.  Yeah, the NIL money should be good too.

    • Any idea what happened to him at LSU? im reading that he was considered a 1st round pick in 2023, had an off 2024 season with only 4 sacks but was also on a horrible FSU team then went to LSU where he was supposed to be on an aggressive defense that should have given him a lot of sacks but he only ended up with one….   was he injured? Did the top SEC competition expose him? What happened? Cause this guy was considered a top prospect .  
    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.
