We will surprise everyone and go defense at #1

If our primo staff can't coach AR up no one can. I'll be excited if he's the pick because a bold move like that means they believe strongly in what he's capable of.

I'm curious tho as someone supposedly on the AR train.

If he is what this organization deems to be the franchise, does it really matter where he is selected?

Did they pay a steep price to get AR at No 1? Yeah. But if they were worried that he wouldn’t absolutely be available at a lower pick, then jumping to get “the guy” is absolutely worth it. Is he going to be the pick? I doubt it. But if he is, then I’ll be all-in on it.

Bro Bryce has been the projected #1 pick since last year.

 

I get the size question, but don't act like this dude can't play the QB position. Ignore the size he has the best tape of all the QB's.

Tua was also the projected #1 pick in his draft for awhile...... I bet the Bengals are glad they didn't take him..

A) You can't ignore the size.

B) I'm not sure he does have the best tape (especially when it comes to projection)

Perhaps, but it's not like Dalton and McCown ever smoked the league, much less set it on fire. 

Dalton has better career stats than Cam Newton...

When we first made the trade I thought it was Stroud. Now I think it’s Young.

If they take Richardson (they won't) then he's won them over since the trade.

It supports the theory that they made the trade without a definitive QB in mind 'cos you don't make that move based on his college stats / how fast he runs. You've been blown away by the tape and his interviews.

A) Nobody is ignoring the size. What some analysts have said is that they don't believe size is as big of a concern in today's NFL than it was many years ago due to all the changes. Most who prefer him are saying that the risk is we'll worth the reward.

B) He absolutely does have the best tape, which is probably the most weighted item when it comes to projection and grading. And, honestly, he did more with less against better competition.

I know a lot of people are making this argument but it's just a weird argument to make when I saw Tua getting ragdolled and brain damaged this year with my own two eyes.

Young has great tape and probably the best of the bunch, but it's far from perfect.  Watch him against LSU (who probably has the best DL talent of any team he played last year).  Their athletic defensive front gave him issues and that's something he will face every year in the NFL.  He also had a great OL and the best RB out of all of the prospects.  Stroud had the best WR by a long shot (and probably the best OL) while Young had the best RB.  It really is hard to project college QBs in the NFL and I'm glad it isn't my job to do so.
