Adam Schefter: Bryce Young is believed to be favorite for #1 for the Panthers right now

Going to have to maintain a top tier line for Stroud too. He's used to playing behind an elite line, not a slightly above average line. Heck, same goes for any rookie QB. Doing what the Panthers did to Newton's line should be a firing offense.

Yes, but with the Saints, they spent a huge percentage of their cap on their Center and Guards--more that the tackles if memory serves me.  Remember when they had Evans and Warford and Ramcyk and some all pro center?  This article demonstrates the problem with Brees when things up front went bad:

I started out big time wanting Stroud, but the more I've watched and seen what Bryce is, the more I'm convinced he is the potential HoF of this class. That said I won't be mad with Stroud, but I'm firmly on the Bryce train now.

HOF...really?

The headline "Young now the favorite" is simply not what Ian said, and it is not factually accurate.

Thanks for bringing in the honest fact and not continuing this ruse. 

 

I do believe their mind hasnt fully made, but they traded up to #1 and the only way that happened if they viewed one player *clearly above all right now*. My tea leaves are saying its Stroud. I get knowing the #1 waay before the draft does hurt the rating or whatever story lines and the tiny chance houston trades for the #1......No longer care, plenty of other drafts had a clear #1 non-drama pick, cry more NFL...

Just cutting alllllll this silliness out- Its Coleridge Bernard "C. J." Stroud IV, sorry NFL for ruining the start of your draft...

Schefty just mad because Aaron Rodgers told him to lose his number.

If we did all of this to trade up and we end up drafting Bryce Young, I may hang myself.

Seriously--that is Schefty's life--if it gets out that sources can't trust him--whether deserved or not--it could hurt his credibility

I didn't say he was one now, I said he has the potential. Obviously you can't make thar assumption with out him playing a down first.

We can help.  I will start a thread titled, "Talking Proudiddy off the ledge" because I am that kind of guy.  There will be a poll (nothing complex, just "jump!" or "don't jump").  Here for you.

Why? Bryce clearly plays the QB position better than anyone is this class he’s a wonderful player could be special
