I can say that my needle bounces back and forth between Young and Stroud--I simply think that you do not refuse to draft the best overall talent because you are afraid he might get hurt. Analyzing an injury history is one thing, but predicting the future will get you in trouble.  It will come down to this:  Which is the best fit and which is the most coachable.  I think we are considering variables that will not ultimately determine the outcome.  For example, who won that pickup basketball game between Stroud and McCown?  Why is that not news? 

I think I veered off topic.

We take Will Anderson.  Everyone is in shock, teams call us wondering why tf did we pass on QBs.  We tell them we found out their teammates weren't invited to their birthday party.  Everyone is panicking and the fall of QBs begins.  By the time Chicago's pick comes, they're pooping their pants and are so confused by everything that is happening that they offer to give us the 9th pick for our 39th, just so that they have time to think about wtf is happening.

We say no, give us also our 1st from next year plus a punt returner.  They agree.

 

Boom.

Agree…at the end of all this if we pick Young or Stroud we should be excited about it.  I personally think Young is better and the opportunity cost is high there

Slight lean towards Stroud but there’s some real FOMO with Bryce. He does things at an elite level, right now, getting off the bus. that guys with long nfl careers never figure out.

he can move the pocket and create separation for wide outs with with general body control, honestly I’ve only seen brees do it as well as he does right now

my big concern is the arm strength though. Idk if it’s requisite, and it can affect his accuracy too.

      Yeah, Bryce has to put that a little deeper. But XL can't allow the pick there. Gotta become the DB when you're undercut like that.

      Micah officially requests a trade

      By TD alt · Posted

      You see, I just don't subscribe to a cookie cutter type of philosophy when it comes to trades or team building. Every situation is different. Many may disagree, but I think that FOs that can't draft impact-players beyond the first round aren't really viable.  Just for argument's sake, because we all know this hypothetical trade is as realistic as the moon being made of cheese, Micah is a young dawg really just beginning his prime and is arguably the most valuable pass rusher in the league. He could realistically play at a high level for at least the next five to seven years. Parsons' current trajectory is Canton. That being said, he's not some old merc that fits the mold of "one piece away," he's a core piece to any defense for the better part of the next 10 years. Pass rushers of his caliber and age don't generally become available, so, sure, he'd help an elite team, but he's also a fit for a younger team that's building. I know that you don't agree, but it's all good. I respect your rationale.

      Here's my not important take on this subject.  Who wouldn't want a pass rusher of his consistency?  I would absolutely love to have him on this defense.   Would I give up Brown in a trade for him.  Nope, I would never do that.  Interior linemen are way to important to be settling for whatever you can get at the position.   Would I trade 2 firsts,  plus fork out a big contract for him?   Without knowing if Young is for sure going to be our long term, franchise guy,  there is no way I'd be okay with letting go 2 firsts. As for the contract that he'd demand, I just dont get caught up with NFL contracts.  They have been out of control for decades.  So I really dont get upset over big contracts. It's just a fact of life in the NFL.  You HAVE to pay for talent.
