Kiper mentioned on the NFL Draft podcast yesterday that he spoke to Bryce Young and he is hoping to get to 200 lbs by the combine.  He questioned whether he could keep that weight on due to his frame and as you would expect has Levis and Young ahead of him.  Kiper is big on ole school measureables.

We have a great NFL coach that is extremely well respected and can lead the franchise.  As of today I am already calling Chicago to see options to go to #1.  I am going there for CJ Stroud.  Before that Georgia game I would have targeted Young but Stroud opened my eyes in that game.

Stroud’s efficiency over the last 2 seasons is remarkable and he has all the measurables and he is still improving.  If we can secure him as our QB this team can be filled out very quickly and without question compete and win the NFC South next season.

I would resign Darnold to a reasonable deal if possible as I think he is the perfect bridge with his own upside has still not completely been realized

On a side note I keep reading about Reich being really into his faith (he was preaching before coaching) and I’ve seen similar things said about Stroud. I think Reich and Stroud can have a nice bromance if it works out that way.

The Panthers aren’t trading Burns. If they were going to they would have at the deadline.

As for a package to get to 1… I’m thinking #9, 2024 1st rounder and instead of our 2025 1st they accept all those picks we got from the CMC deal  that Fitterer thinks equals a 1st rounder 

I really don’t care tbh. We need a damn QB. If they think Stroud is that guy then do it

    • Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.
    • What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.
