Just a forewarning...

I've been pretty down on Stroud but if he plays well against UGA tonight I might be pounding the table to trade up and get him.

Tonight is HUGE for that young man.

 

He would be a target without question.  I think Levis might end up being the second QB taken so he could slide into a nice trade up position with luck.

Young is that dude. We need to hope the Texans screw up and win some games and let the bears have the first round pick. We then trade up with them to nab Young. 

I agree Young just passes the eye and gut test. 

The Texans are a team that could fall for Levis in my opinion.  I'm not a fan but Kentucky did him no favors and he'll likely only gain traction from here on out.  Bears could win another game and AZ could also be Pick 2 when all is said and done. 

The highest we can draft is Pick 7 and we really should consider leaping LVR, ATL, IND & SEA for a QB if we're sold on Young.  If we end up pick 19, then it's probably a different story but I'm game for a Young trade up if not.  

Dream scenario:

1-Texans: Levis QB

2-Cards: Carter/Anderson DL

3-Bears: We trade up from Pick 7-10ish and grab Young. Just don't go crazy with the future picks.

He has the ability and the physical traits.  Accuracy is awesome, can lead and create for his receivers super nicely when things are going right. 

He simply needs to show he can step up when the structure of that offense breaks down.  For me, it's all about how he can show his ability to create when he needs to go off-script. Improvisational skills and strong decisions on the fly are what I hope to see.

Bingo.

That's what I haven't seen from him and that's what concerns me. I mean, Sam Darnold also looks really good when everything goes right. But...

    • ^I want that, but Rodriguez over KC. Don't hate KC as much at that spot, but rather take a WR with the pick we gain in that trade than in the 1st. 
    • I think there is good points in this thread to what the team needs to do. 1) Ball isn't really the issue but, he needs reigned in.  Coach and he need to realize when things aren't falling from the three and learn to play other facets of the game.  He's an amazing talent and when he's on, he's on.  But he can also shoot you out of a game.  We're lucky Miami went that way but that is too many missed threes.  He still needs to bulk up if he can, but he needs to drive more.  He's pretty good at finishing usually and hopefully the fouls come (probably not though).   2) The whole team needs to be more physical.  As others have stated, we need more bulk in our bigs.  Diabate is a hurricane of energy but cannot go against the larger centers.  I love him on the team but he should be more of a match up type guy or energy off the bench.  I think he'd be insane off the bench.  However I think the biggest issue with Diabate and Kaulk is the lack of offensive game.  The lack of a jump shot or anything.  Teams figured out to just leave them on the screen and crash lanes.  There has to be some sort of threat.  We need a 4 and a 5 that can do those things and stretch out the court. 3) Bridges.  He's just undersized.  However, I feel he really threw his all into it the last few weeks when others were gassed.  He was ok not being a focal point.  I'd like to have him off the bench as well but I assume he'd be traded to make things work.  4) Miller.  Dude can light it up when on, but disappears for quarters at a time.  Also he needs to work on ball handling and passing.  He's a turnover machine at bad times.  Also hopefully over the injury so he can bulk up too.   5) Kon. Just a rookie.  Long season and back injury.  I have no doubt he'll be back stronger and focused.  Needs to work on defense and physicality like the whole team but yes, a rookie he'll get there. 6) Coby.  Has to be resigned, no question.  The bench lineup is rough without him running the point.  Team has big potential and the front office seems sharp.  They seen the hive and how crazy it got and how much the city wants this.
