So this is supposed to be our new QB

The “I don’t want Young but totally support him if he were our QB” group is strong in this one… for the 47391st time. We. Get. It. 
 

How many times and ways are we going to repeat the same cheesy crap over and over again. You’ll never accept Young because of size. That’s fine. Awesome. But we’re sitting here trying to knitpick things that don’t exist? Trying to make anyone afraid of 36 year old Calais Campbell? Man yeah can’t wait for his blazing speed to destroy our tackles and blindside Young and spear him into oblivion.. 

Let me ask the Stroud crowd HONESTLY. Had he scored highly on this test, would it be disregarded or put on a pedestal? And I’m a Young guy and that test means nothing to me, the tape he put up does.

If the coaching staff feels like Young has everything they are looking for other than size, they’ll draft him and make sure he packs on 10-15 pounds of muscle prior to his first pro snap.  I remember everyone wondering if 160 pound Devonte Smith would survive in the nfl.  Dude goes across the middle and absorbs hits like he’s AJ Brown.

Just stated a fact. 

This is how the Stroud crowd works. Slight Young however they feel fit but use the weak cop out of “but I’ll accept him if he’s our qb”. You don’t like him because he’s small and volatile. I won’t try to convince you to be comfortable with that. It’s valid. That’s fine. But I will keep the same sentiment that I think Stroud is destined for mid and won’t try to convince you otherwise.

The good news is, I don’t give a poo what you think, and you shouldn’t give a poo what I think. He’s slight, and skinny. Don’t want it.

And how can you prove that will happen. He may be a bust or he may or he may be mediocre. He needs field time and prove he can do this and nothing is automatic.

Based on everything I’ve watched. (The only thing that should matter to everyone). Regardless of most circumstances, Young balled. He has so much “magic” to his game. Does he beat the potentially best UGA and CFL defense all time in the championship if Jameson doesn’t tear his acl early in the second quarter? He makes a lot of something out of nothing and I just don’t think we’ve seen his ceiling yet.

    • This is gonna be longest six weeks ever 
    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
