I’m fine with either. I see the pluses and minuses with both. Stroud is definitely safer.

I think Young has a much more appealing skillset when comping to the top end QBs in the league right now though. I’m not very worried about his size. 

I don’t blame us if we are worried about it though, I think Stroud is going to be a very competent QB we can win a lot of games with.

Please tell me that the Panthers will not waste multiple first and second round picks on a 185 pound QB with an average, at best arm. Processing speed will mean nothing when he is consistently ragdolled and a constant visitor to the concussion protocal.

Size matters!

I’m not gonna pick one so either-hopefully Panther leaders know more than I lol. 

I do have a prediction for first year performance whichever teams they go to:

Young - more batted balls than stroud (per game avg)

Stroud - more interceptions than Young (per game avg)

That my friends you can take to the bank.

So let’s get the tallest, fattest QB in the draft *eye roll*

Someone said, "Size is a skill". Kind of a funny way to put it, but you get the point. It absolutely matters. Doesn't mean it is a disqualifier, but it plays a part.

I do not think this staff will trade up to #1 for a project--all indications are the QB will start very early--so eliminate AR15 and Levis.

If the QB most ready to start day 1 is a factor, I think Young gets the nod.  If they are looking for a secure 10-20 year pocket passing QB with few questions about size, obviously Stroud gets the nod. 

They showed a list of the QBs Reich has worked with, and most of them were 6'4" or so--so does than indicate a type?  Maybe, but they also underpeformed--most were over the hill--so who knows?

When I hear the coach and GM talk, they tend to repeat the same words when asked questions separately-probably a good idea of the things they talk about in private.  One word I keep hearing?  PROCESSING.  They are more interested in the speed between the ears than the speed from zero to 40.  Does that mean the size of the QB is not an issue? No.  Does that mean Stroud cannot process?  No.

Heard Todd McShay discussing how quickly Stroud processes and then shift to hit WRs with dimes. We have not seen that around here in a long time.

I like both players a lot but I think Stroud would be the better pick. He may not be where Young is mentally but it doesn't mean he's a slouch and that he can't grow to be as good or better at processing the field. 

Young looks great but he also looks like he's close to his peak. And his size could really be a serious problem if he gets injury prone. If Taylor Heinecke was 6-4 he would be a top 10 QB, but he's not and he gets hurt all the time.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.

      How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
