How do you feel about CJ Stroud

Recommended Posts

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.

    • Yea, I've never had high expectations since we drafted Bryce, so it's not like I'm just upset about not meeting them. I went into the season wanting to see player improvement and Canales' play design/calling improvement. I'm now to the point where I 99% only care about seeing individual player improvement.  The 1% is that I unfortunately have to still hope to see Canales play calling improvement, because that is kinda critical for the improvement of all our young offensive players. Offense is different from defense, you need good play designs and calls to show out.  On defense, everything can be a mess, but a great young player can still stand out and look great.  Our defense can be a mess but still have Horn locking down his guys on the outside, Scourton or Princely winning their pass rushing and pressuring the QB, DB swallowing up multiple blockers. But it's very hard for any QB, RB, WR, or TE to individually shine when the play design and calling is poo.
    • He actually said the Panthers are hanging on like a cat on a screen door lol
    • Oh, I'm not 100% expecting/demanding anything for next season. All that I want to see out of this season is progress, but I also understand that progress is not linear. I also understand that we've got a young team and coaching staff that are both developing. Expecting a winning record isn't reasonable at all, but I'll cheer for one all the same. I think that this is where some of the more angsty fans keep themselves in a perpetual cycle of misery: high expectations leads to low resiliency. Folks can have high standards, and the Panthers + Bryce have not met those standards, but some of those standards are completely realistic (like Bryce has to be built like Cam in order to be successful).
