Seems like Stroud is good at hitting all the throwing nets, can probably get the ball in the trash cans at the pro days or whatever they do, but that's like 1/3rd of the job for a franchise QB. I really don't love the top 10 of this draft class in general. Immediate impact would be Anderson, Carter, RIngo, maybe one of the WR's, and maybe that TE Mayer but I'm not totally sold he'll translate

I thought Mac Jones was a 3rd round prospect. I just saw him as a likely high end backup NFL QB I never watched him and saw a legit NFL starter. The arm talent just isn't there.

 

Yeah he's like Stroud with a less impressive arm. Jones on this Bama team would have looked horrible, probably same for Stroud.

Actually, if you want to get it correct, one more loss in 2020 would have gotten us Herbert instead of Brown. In 2021 one more loss would have gotten us pick 3 instead of Horn. That means we would have gotten 3 firsts and a 2nd from SF.

If you are going to act like better picks are bad, at least get the facts right. Thanks a bunch.

Beautiful rebuttal

Stroud has been spoon fed victories because Ohio State is always stacked. It's easy to play well when you're ahead by 30. But when he gets a little adversity, he folds. He couldn't carry a team.

He's getting dragged on Twitter right now.

I agree on the top-10 overall comment.  Addison & Johnson are awesome at WR, Carter at DL most of the time, but it's pretty thin with the tier-1 talent.  

Not a big Bijan fan, same w/Anderson.  Not a really top heavy draft.  No legit 3-down DLs (Maybe Murphy, but Hutch/Walker/Thib are above all these guys), no runaway plug in LTs, no stellar DBs like the past few drafts (Ringo is alright but not Sauce/Horn/Surtain level), big question marks on QBs.

I read some of that thread. People were blaming everyone but Stroud for the loss with the minority saying he's overrated. It was like reading this place when Cam was the Panthers' QB and they lost a game.

No different than Fields. Yesterday showed this against better competition. This is with every Ohio State QB. I'm kinda digging the QB from Southern Cal. But, unless we get a franchise QB in the top 5, the dumpster diving in third round just occured last year and Corral needs to play. We are fortunate to have a solid offensive line for the most part, unlike Jets, Texans, etc so there's more of a chance for success whoever is back there. I still think it's Bryce Young or out.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".

      As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.

      If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
