Size bros, I did some research and you're correct. Here's some stats about this year's QB class

Stop…please, Young dominated the SEC for 2 seasons.  You know it and I know it

The SEC is not the NFL. And he was coached by the best coach in the SEC and surrounded by the most or second most talented team in the SEC. 
 

Small is small. He’s small.

Young played with way less talent by far than CJ,  not sure your angle here but we are not picking Richardson.  Stop man.  You want CJ so fine but there is really no question who the better player is here.  Talk about size forever but Young is the better player man

I’m not asking us to draft Richardson. I’d wish you would stop putting that on me.

So CJ Stroud is a better QB on the field than Bryce Young?  Seriously?  CJ is really good and I will be happy with him but no need to bash Young, he is a great prospect and IMO the best player in this draft

You have to understand that different folks will prioritize different things they want. Young is a great prospect. His playing weight is a big issue for me. He’ll likely play around 195 once the season starts. He’d be the smallest QB in the NFL by far and I don’t believe he’ll be able to withstand the hits year in and year out. It’s not bashing Young to point out areas of concern. I’m on record saying I’ll take any of the top 4 and shut up. We need to stop retreads. Stroud just concerns me the least.

It doesn’t bother you at all how scripted Strouds offense was?  Outside of the Georgia game, he literally had no pocket pressure in career.  His WRs ran wide open most of his career.  He failed in big games BTW.  He was good vs Georgia but so was Young.  

Young also played incredible against many more teams than Stroud and WON much of the time.  Give me an SEC guy over a scripted Ohio St QB any day

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
