Did the S2 TEST take CJ out?

I wonder why he said "bad" but not the score?  I mean everyone pretty much assumes the worst now.  I'm sure he is telling the truth, I just found that part odd.  Plus if it was just a rumor you would think Stroud's agent would step in and release the real score at some point right?

That last part 

“didn’t feel comfortable saying his score”

For those acting like the S2 must not be that big of a deal because it’s been around since 2015, well I don’t think you’ve given it much thought. It would take years for the nfl to take it seriously because you would need for a player to play for a few years and need multiple draft classes so you can look at the data more. It probably took years for people to even take it seriously and I am sure a lot of your older front office people wouldn’t take something new seriously.

BINGO!!!

Kyle Bailey said he reached out to league sources about this “rumor”

Said is was “Bad”. Didn’t feel comfortable saying the score.  Also said Source stated our Front Office really is high on this S2 thing.

He played a clip from the Houston media.  They’re “sources” mirrored what he’s heard.

 

 

Said from his sources down on mint st

We don’t have a problem with Bryce’s size

Kunkel said that our whole entourage was blown away how Bryce Commanded the room when they met at the combine and Pro Day.  And Blew them away on the visit

Good lord, imagine not having a problem with Young's size.

As I've repeatedly said, I hope that don't get drawn in by the off-the-field stuff when it's the on-the-field stuff that matters.

Yeah I read that but he felt ok saying it was "bad."  It's no big deal just found it odd.  It's probably true or Stroud's camp would be all over it.  Tepper also loves analytics which could explain all of the recent Young links to Carolina.  It all makes sense.

There’s a reason they get paid a lot of money to do this and your whining on a message board about a prospect several teams tried to trade up for

So last year's highest score was the last pick in the draft?  Meaning no one took it seriously?   It seems like it's the new wonderlic test.  I'm not sure there is ever going to be some magical test to show how successful a QB can be in the NFL.

*you're

I'm 'whining' on a message board because a) I'm British, so good luck getting a foot in the door of an NFL franchise and b) I have a very lucrative career of my own.

There's a reason these guys are fired every other year too - besides someone like Ozzie Newsome, they're all flawed. I mean at one point Thomas Dimitroff was considered hot poo (NFL Exec of the year) and now he has a podcast in his mid-50s.

See, this is the massive concern I have with Young. 

Brock Purdy scored a 4.55 on the RAS score last year - basically he's a 6', 212lb QB that ran a 4.8 40 yard dash.

He was a 4 year starter at Iowa St and had consistently good stats (67% completion percentage, 81 TDs, 33 INTs, 12,000 yards, 151 QB rating). He didn't hit anywhere near the TD heights Young did, he also had nowhere near the surrounding talent. 

Despite all that (and the super high S2 score) the NFL deemed that he was only worth the last pick in the Draft. 

Unless Young ran a 4.2 40 yard dash he'd have tanked his RAS score 'cos he's smaller and lighter than Purdy. Apparently this is no longer a concern for the NFL... because, reasons?

And Bryce young is better on the field that’s why his haters can only bring up his size and not his play

Purdy had some bad games too. He was projected to go higher and kind of regressed his junior year I believe. I guess my question is if the S2 is the greatest test why wasn’t Iowa St winning more with him at QB? Why are people saying Fields struggles to read defense as he apparently aced it as well? It’s just another source of data to look at like the wonderlic test.

    • Nobody is giving up a 4th rounder for a backup QB And anyone who needs a starter badly enough to where Bryce would then be their starter, is such a bad team that they're not giving up a pick likely to be about pick 105ish overall, instead of just dealing with a bad QB situation for a season and then drafting one in a loaded QB draft next year. I'm looking through all the teams right now and can't think of a single one that would be willing to part with anything better than a 6th rounder. Barring injuries (and excluding the Panthers), there look to be 10 teams who don't know with 100% certainty who their starting QB will be in 2027... Dolphins, Jets, Browns, Steelers, Vikings, Colts, Saints, Falcons, Cardinals, and Rams. Of those 10...  The Rams know it will be Stafford or Simpson.  The Saints more than likely will be sticking with Shough unless he takes a huge step backwards.  So neither are giving up any draft picks for Bryce right now, just wouldn't make sense for either. Down to 8 Given their current QB situation of having multiple QBs they already need to evaluate between this year, the Browns (Shedeur/Watson), Vikings (Kyler/JJ), Colts (Jones/Richardson/Leonard), and Falcons (Penix/Tua), wouldn't be giving up a 4th (or maybe any pick) to bring in another QB to muddy the waters even more. Down to 4 Dolphins just signed Willis and wouldn't want to bring in another small Alabama QB who has struggled after just dumping Tua instead of just rolling with Ewers as the backup.   That then leaves the Steelers, Cardinals, and Jets left as it's clear none of them have any idea who their 2027 could be as of right now.  But the Steelers would for sure rather just see what one of the 2 QB's they drafted in the last 2 drafts could become than give up a mid round pick for Bryce.  Same goes for the Cardinals in taking Beck this past weekend. The Jets would be the most likely team to even consider taking him on, but I think it seems very apparent right now given them rolling with Geno and now talk of bringing in Wilson to be his backup, they're punting on QB this year to draft someone next year, so why give up even a mid round pick for Bryce?
    • Honestly I am not sure Pickett couldn’t step in for him. But I don’t see a clear easy upgrade and we are not KC with Alex Smith we are a team that hadn’t done poo for almost ten years and just made the playoffs. And looked good in the game. That stadium atmosphere on that day…. you know Tepper ate that poo up. Not one drink has been thrown in a while.  You had better make sure if you replaced him after that that you had a sure fire upgrade. 
    • Makes sense. If Bryce is ass this year, we are probably drafting our new QB next draft and sitting him behind Bryce for a year
