All the fans that want to tank, you guys are all in on Stroud?

Young and Stroud are the number 1-2 of this class. Just like Lawrence and Fields were 1-2 of that class before everyone got prospect fatigue on them and decided to trash Fields before the draft. I’m sure the Jets and 49Ers would redo that if they could. 

Stroud is the #1 QB and Heisman front runner. The poster I quoted was acting like it's Young, then Stroud. I'm not talking about previous drafts.

Right now, we are 6th in the draft order.

Three teams ahead of us, (Chicago, Denver, and Pittsburgh) won't be taking a quarterback.

The Texans probably will.   Detroit is up in the air.  They currently have one of the top passing offenses in the league, so they may decide that they are good enough.  

Also, even if we fall further back in the draft, three of the teams behind us are unlikely to take a qb.  Of course, some team (Falcons, Colts) could trade up I suppose.

He may still be QB1 foe this draft (depending upon whom youj talk to), but not really the frontrunner anymore.

After watching both Stroud & Young over the past month, I'd certainly much rather fight for a playoff spot that to "fight" for the right to draft them.

Not saying they aren't talented or could be good NFL QB's, but no scout or talent evaluator in the league could say with a straight face that tanking for these guys is justified like you could have made the argument for regarding Andrew Luck, Joe Burrow, even Cam.

IMO, there's a much, much better chance these 2 follow a Jameis Winston/ Marcus Mariota path than both or either developing into a franchise QB.

I don't think Bryce Young is any better of a prospect than Tua, and I would have rather drafter Justin Fields than CJ Stroud.

Ohio State has been a great program under 4 different coaches over the past 20 years or so.

Name their best NFL QB ever.

 

I'll wait over here.

I understand your argument.  It's a very common argument.

But I think the causality claim of OSU QB, therefore wont be successful in the NFL is a bit illogical.

I am by no means stating that CJ Stroud will be successful in the NFL, I am however, stating that just because he went to OSU does not mean he wont be a successful franchise QB.

Who was the best nfl qb that played for Texas tech before mahomes? What about Wyoming before Josh allen? LSU before Joe Burrow? Oregon before Justin Herbert? Cal before Aaron Rodgers? Michigan before Brady?

Only 4 QB's drafted #1 or #2 have made it to the SB since 2010.  Cam, Burrow, Goff and Wentz as a non-starter.  I'm good with taking BPA.

 

Peyton Manning went three times? Eli Manning? Matt Stafford?
