He's the most complete. Has the size and ability. It's still early though and things could change. I will say this though. You can't change Young's size and you can't make the UK QB make better decisions. Stroud has everything except elite speed which no top QB has. 

forced to choose between young and stroud, i'd likely go stroud but i'd be really happy with either. i think stroud has the highest floor between the two but young has the highest ceiling, but aside from a couple distinctions i think they're about the same level of talent. 

stroud has size and he's a better passer. young is a dynamic playmaker. young would be more exciting, but we'd be better off with either of them.

I guess if I had to take a QB I would more than likely have to go with Stroud at this point. Young is a great talent but the size obviously scares me away. I realize there have been small QB's but he seems REALLY small and that worries me for his future in the NFL. I hope it works out for him and he proves all critics wrong as im sure he is a good guy but it would scare me away from him just due to the size issue. Stroud seems to check all the boxes except where he plays and how much talent he has been surrounded by. He is good obviously but I always wonder if he just has the best talent in the country around him or if he would just be that great anyhow. Such a tough call and always a gamble either way but I would have to take Stroud.

My knock on young is he's 5'11. Drew Brees was 6' and had to navigate the pocket and use ungodly precision to overcome that. I'm not saying he can't be successful but it's going to take some real creativity and work on his part.

A couple of scouts/analysts say he is shorter then that.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
