How do you feel about CJ Stroud

It’s also the OSU hate. I get it, I’m not a fan, but I’m also not going to deny obvious talent when I see it.

Yep. 

I don't fully understand the people clamoring to the OSU QB "omen". It's not like they've produced fools gold either.  They've only produced 4 1st round QBs...4!

2 being Don Scott and Art Schilcter...both irrelevant from by gone eras in a totally different game. 1940s and 1980s.  

There's been Dwayne Haskins and Justin Fields.  And teams in the league didn't buy them as even top-10 overall talent.  So it's not like there's even monumental busts. 

Not to mention, Haskins looked capable of running an offense, maybe a long term backup/emergency starter and then died.  He actually had a few pretty respectable games in his final starts before the covid ordeal. The Skins were the worst team for him to being drafted to.

And then, you have Fields who looks respectable this year.

I don't really see a trend and both Haskins and Fields are ENTIRELY different players. 

My 2 cents.

Stroud's intelligence, accuracy, & arm shows and his play speaks for itself.

Stroud my #1 by miles. The knocks, NFL team at OSU to work with, and plays a lot out of the gun, and slighter frame to hieght. 

Big deal on those. He makes the throws and has read defenses pre snap and made big reads and throws with pressure. 

He's a clear #1. If we have the chance, pull the trigger

If you are a fan of Ohio State, the problem with Stroud is that he doesn't play defense.

The fact that they did not put the ball in the end zone on the last drive was not on him.  He put the ball where it needed to be, his TE got his hands on it, he just didn't secure it and the DB made a great play.

That’s basically CatsFan lol. OSU gave up 38 points which means Stroud is somehow trash xD

Like I've said all year, if Iowa, Indiana, Purdue, Northwestern and any of the other Big 10 schools not named Michigan get to be in the NFL, then CJ Stroud is the guy.  But if he has to play against NFL talent, he will be lost and isn't worth a first round grade.

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
