Yes.

Power arm is nice, but not essential if you can throw it to the right receiver at the right time with the right touch....and the right receiver will always be running the right routes designed around the throwing range of the QB. 

Gunslingers are fun, but a QB who can dink and dunk and tear apart defenses is pretty fun too. And if that QB is a mobile threat, then watch out.

I’ve been on the Stroud bandwagon for longer than anyone. He’s my guy in this class. Young feels like the type of guy to look good for two seasons and then the size concerns come into play and he’s dinged up and not the same going forward. He doesn’t weigh enough. He didn’t really put on weight while at Alabama. For a kid knowing his goal is to get to the NFL it felt like he didn’t really work to alleviate those concerns about his size. 
 

I can deal with the height. It’s not the be all, end all, but he seriously like 20-30 pounds under where I would feel comfortable with him long term. And to that note, if he gains that weight now I wonder if it will impact his speed and agility.

He will probably come to the combine at 202 or something like that and everybody will rejoice even though they know its not his playing weight and its totally fictitious.   Kid is a great college quarterback there is no mistaking that however his size is just too damn small to take a risk on.  Any GM that takes him pretty much knows their job is dependent on him staying healthy and thats a big ask

      ESPN's All Quarter Century Team 2000-2025

      By TD alt · Posted

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.

      So where can I find out tailgating parking spots for the season?

      By toldozer · Posted

      I parked in this lot a few times. It would take over and hour to get out of that lot after games. Never again
