What serious reason would there be for picking Young instead of Stroud? 

If it's even remotely close in comparison you take the bigger more prototypical QB. 

Is there anything Young does that is far and away much better than what Stroud can do????

Yes, everything about playing QB except size and maybe accuracy (which I think is close).

It's possible that Young can have a Steph Curry-like effect on the NFL

I'm fine with either Stroud or Young

Well, Steph is a lanky 6'3".  Besides, this is a collision sport.  Not only that, but I believe Young's size will limit how far he is able to go in this league.  I might be the only one in this camp, but I think NFL defenses are going to have a ball in batting down his passes.

At this point, essentially Young and Stroud is 1a and 1b. It all depends on the flavor you like. To me, Stroud is your more traditional drop back QB, take what the defense gives you, and be accurate. Young is more of a playmaker when things don't go well, I feel like he has more potential to make big plays. Stroud can sustain a 12 play drive, where as Young can give you a 50+yd chunk play any time. I prefer Young but wouldn't be mad at Stroud.

Haha, Young isn't just a short QB.  Him being at 6'0"-6'1" would be considered short.  This guy is toddler sized.  If we are picking, and Stroud and Young are on the board, I would be disappointed if we didn't pick Stroud.  Now if we trade down to Houston and they select Stroud, I would be okay with Young being the pick. (Assuming we get Houston's extra 1st in the trade down)

      Post- Training Camp 53-Man Roster Projection

      By Seltzer · Posted

      By all indications, the surgery was "minor." I know with all surgeries and especially back surgery there can be complications, but I think the whole time Tremble did this with the expectation he would be able to be back for Week 1 It sounds like he will be ready to start back in team drills next week. He's a veteran who knows the system so I'm sure that helps. I still can't imagine he will play a normal workload early on though

      Maybe. He was pretty good in college before a bad injury. He had a good preseason last year as a UDFA in Washington and was on their practice squad all year so they obviously saw something worth developing. He signed a futures deal with the Panthers earlier this year, and everything about him has been increasingly positive. Tremayne has gotten a decent amount of time with the ones, and a lot with the twos for someone that doesn't have a chance. He's the only other 6'4" plus WR on the team, plays ST, and is a more natural backup to the X receiver position than David Moore. That was my thinking behind it. But he may well end up as one of the last roster cuts. If so, I do hope they can bring him back to the PS. But I personally think there's a good chance he could be claimed given his ST ability and what hes shown at WR.

      That was my thought originally, but so many of the beat writers have mentioned keeping 7 WRs in conversations that I went with that, at least for the purposes of this projection. But you're right that historically defensive guys who were standouts at ST have tradionally gotten those last spots
