This seems like you're implying that they shouldn't trade up for a QB, but this was not your initial assertion, which was that you don't think they would trade up. Feels like a pivot on your part to bring up Robbie as a slight on Fitt's decision making.

Since we're going to really parse words, how about I just say that I don't think they are going to trade up AND I think trading up is a stupid idea.

And yes, the Robbie contract IS a slight on Fit. As would be the Ian Thomas one. (I keep wanting to call him Ian Anderson... but he wouldn't make a very good tight end, especially at his age.)

Wait people want Stroud over Fields?

 

Im pretty sure Fields would go #1 in the draft given what we know.

 

The people saying Fields can't throw that is a flat out lie. He doesn't have time to read the field because his Oline is the worst in the league. Also who is he throwing to?

 

Chicago literally has nothing around him. Give me Fields over Stroud if given the option.

QUESTIONS:

Would it be cheaper to trade for the #1 or for Fields? How much cheaper? Should that matter?

I watched Stroud keep OSU highly competitive against a significantly superior UGA team. Period.

Seems like the goalposts of rationalization move based on whether or not you like a prospect.

"Significantly superior?" I don't know about that, and I'm a Georgia alum.

Honestly, I would take either with a concerted effort and focus to develop them. I suspect that Stroud is the better processor right now, but I also believe that Fields has a markedly higher ceiling overall. Development is likely the key. Neither one is a surefire bet, but of course Fields has invaluable NFL experience.

Has it? Didn’t realize OSU ran the same system with the same success every single year regardless of who was coach or QB. I completely forgot about all those JT Barrett 4K yd seasons.

I mean Urban, Day and Tressell all notoriously run super QB friendly systems that have not translated into the pros. Outside of Conor Cook and Russell Wilson a  OSU QB has won The Greise-Brees award in the last 13 years, and before that Pryor was making all big 10. What was the last time a OSU QBs struggled?

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By strato · Posted

      To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…

      Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.

      The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
