Has Fitterer ever talked about CJ?

Yep, that's my concern, the difference is Russ is a tad taller, but a significantly stockier build to his frame, which is my concern with Young, not his height.

I hear that. I’m not concerned abt height at all as he throws pretty well in the middle of the field. 
weight is concerning, but that’s the one physical thing he can fix with time.

This is what I think too

Honestly if u listen to FITT, u can clearly see Whr his mind is.

i think there are discussions from McCown (strong) & Reich (lesser) to take a hard look at CJ.

when u hear FITT say things like “He held court”, he means Bryce has to do something crazy not to be the pick in his & Tepper eyes.

No it's not, he can add weight, but he can only add so much because he just has a very slim frame to him.  You put too much weight onto that frame and it will affect other aspects of his game.

You can coach up Stroud's mental side of the game, which is where Young is elite.  And as I've said numerous times, we're not talking about a dummy back there who can't read defenses and has a poor mental side to their game (I see you Zach Wilson, Sam Darnold, Kyler Murray, etc).  Stroud is already very good at that, just not quite to the same level as Young.

I think that can be coached up with the right coaches more easily than you can get Young to bulk up enough to protect him from injury.

If the QB coach and the head coach have to change the mind of the GM and the owner we're quite possibly doomed regardless. Fitterer is and will always be one of the folks who signed off on the Darnold trade.

GMs pick players & coaches coach them. That’s the way it is in most organizations from NFL, to NBA etc…

The NBA has an owner who gets too hands on with draft picks too. His name is Michael Jordan.

I somewhat disagree…he can easily add 20 pound of mostly muscle to this frame. Nobody is saying to add 100 pounds.

also, CJ can be coached but I don’t think to the degree of Bryce. It’s all fascinating stuff for sure & I can’t wait to follow both careers.

Young should be able to sit at 205-210lbs comfortably eventually

Mahomes isn't as good at reading the defense as say a Drew Brees is, but I'd rather have Mahomes as my QB.  

You're talking about Stroud as if he's Levis, someone who has questionable decision making in college, but he's not, he's Elite in that area, Stroud is just Elite +1 in the same area.

    • He does have speed. 21+ top end speed is very fast for a linebacker and his 3 cone drill time is considered excellent, close to elite.  
    • This is awesome because you get to see the perspectives of the scouts--get a glimpse behind the curtain. I wonder whose doing this was; I am curious as to why David Tepper allowed it. Maybe it was his wife. Maybe Dan.  At least from my perspective--and probably one shared by other fans--when David Tepper bought the team, he closed everything off too much to the fans, and really didn't give an explanation. Things were obviously done because he (and/or some others wanted to do it). Remember when they used the guise of construction and all that to keep fans from seeing the team during practice? I know there are laws and safety and all that, but Tepper could've made it happen. And, of course, we all know that they essentially fired Jeremy from his independent contractor gig as a photojournalist. I never understood why they'd do that (and the negative reverberations obviously affected Jeremy and ultimately this place--i.e, us fans). The pie was (and is) certainly big enough to throw some scraps to the independents. I realize that you can't necessarily open the floodgates, but a few different perspectives from indy journalists whether in word or photos is a good thing in my mind.  So, it's great to see different perspectives. I will say this however: it is not without risk, as you know there will be some buster who will be calling the scouts out if the players flop. I think we should all keep in mind that the buck stops with the GM. It's nice to have one, however, that is so convicted in his people and process--and ultimately success, that he's willing to give fans access to this type of information. Pass this on to Tepper.
    • I hope he ends up being our best ever at the position. Ryan Kalil left big shoes behind that we haven't quite been able to fill since.
