I mean its reported that several front office folks love Young. Tepper is just the big name that brings attention. I can guarantee you Fiterrer is in the Young camp as well. Just read his quotes and watch his interviews and you can connect the dots.

I agree. I think Fitt is all in on Young. Especially after the success Russ had with his old team.

Yeah I see that, but it probably eases some of his concerns about height. The see a 5’11” QB have that much success.

As we discussed before, wilson was a threat to run in both college and pros.  1500 yards and 5000 yards in college and pros with double digit tds.  Young doesnt warrant that threat which IMO will be a problem in the nfl if the defense knows you dont do that.  I get the scrambling ability but the defense is going to hone in on that rather quickly when they dont have to defend you taking off and scrambling for 10+ yards

I'm just telling you what Fitt is probably thinking oh and he actually compared them. The second one is Reich talking about Fitt and the first one is Fitt himself.  They are definitely using Russ's success to look at Young whether any of us agree with it or not. 

“Yes, it is a concern,” he said. “But look at Drew Brees, look at Russell Wilson. So, are there very many quarterbacks his size that are high, high picks? No, there are not. But, there are exceptions to that. And there’s good reason that there’s exception to that.”

“It’s Scott Fitterer, it’s the GM, and he’s talking about Russell Wilson — who, by the way, I had a very high grade on. You don’t have to read anything into that, but I don’t mind telling you that I had a high grade on Russell Wilson. But don’t read anything into that, because I’m just saying that all these people putting this label on me that I only work with big quarterbacks. Don’t read anything into that.”

I like them both and they have been the best at their positions since HS.. Elite 11, state championship, college, and Heismen.. Both have been there competing against each other and both have been at the top because of their intelligence, work ethic and skill..

jmo I don’t think you go wrong with either 1..

I think its pretty obvious Fitterer loved Bryce day 1. I think Reich has been more free talking about how much he like Bryce than any of them specifically as well, but I dont doubt he could like Stroud more. I dont think it means he dislikes Bryce or doesnt want him though.

That's how it has looked to me.  Fitt likes Young and Reich wants to do a real deep dive into this class.

    • LOL... Yet again proving you can't look below anything than what you see on the surface Mock drafts ARE NOT draft grades They are what people think will happen.  They are mocking teams taking QB's in the top 5 of the draft because that's just historically how drafts go regardless of the grades on the QBs.  Almost every draft expert, even those mocking QB's going high, have said time and time again that none of these QB's actually grade out as those type of picks. This is again, where I say you don't like to actually read what I have to say, because I already explained it. 2022 the exact same thing happened, mock drafts had guys like Pickett and Willis going in the Top 5 because that's just what teams usually do, but GM's listened to their prospect grades and knew they weren't worth taking that high, so they didn't. It's not to say QB's won't go that high this year, but it's to say that they aren't graded out as elite QB prospects.  Mock drafts 
    • Have you seen the mock drafts lately?   Most of them have us taking a QB. Just because you aren't high on these QBs doesn't mean the Panthers or other teams aren't.   If you want me to be real I just think you a Tmac homer and all you care about is us drafting him. It's why you get so defensive when people mention other prospects.   Be open to other people's ideas. Nobody in this thread is saying anything bad about your boy Tmac. 
    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
