I lean towards Stroud because I think he’s the safer pick but I get why people like Young. You can’t  teach how smart he is or the kind of young man he is.  At this point I’m accepting it, hope he can get up to 205lbs playing weight and wish him the best. NFCS is weak and for the taking. To root against our offense to prove a point would make you a terrible fan.

I was excited as soon as we traded to #1 knowing we'd have a young QB that we were committed to building around. Am I worried about Young's size? Hell yes I am. But I said I'd trust this staff to make the right call and hope for the best and that's what I'm gonna do. There's no perfect prospect in this draft. It's not like we're bypassing an Andrew Luck type prospect.

I was all for CJ Stroud at first.  Then the vegas odds changed, and I'm convinced it will be Bryce Young.  The Panthers staff is better qualified to make this decision than I am.  If Vegas has Bryce as our guy, then I'm ready to support him.

I’m saving this thread for future use.

Is it just me? Or are the Stroud folks more willing to accept Young? Whereas, the Young crowd will not accept any other result?

I never fell in love with any of them. I have huge concerns about Young's size. I have concerns about Stroud in terms of dealing with pressure and what he'll look like when his team isn't hands down more talented than the oppositions. I have concerns with Richardson's lack of college production and throwing mechanics.

But none of that addresses the main question. Stroud fans seem more willing to accept Young. But the Young folks are just insufferable. I'm almost to the point I don't want anything to do with him. It's like when your aunt keeps trying to make you eat her pickled eggs.

Don't let bad fans ruin your own fan experience. There will always be certain elements of any fanbase that are just insufferable.

    • The problem that Bryce faces is his lack of prototypical tools.  He's not the tall, strong armed mobile QB that tends to get drafted first overall.  His game is not played in underwear on a practice field.  His best asset are his intangibles.  They aren't sexy like a cannon arm or a fast 40 yard dash. OK, so we took the lesser athlete.  Bryce put up a pretty bad season with a bad team around him.  The coaching staff, for all it's platitudes, sucked.  They made sure Bryce could run a huddle, but didn't help him get better as a player.  Bad choice. Compare that to what other teams did to their Rookies:  they put them in position to succeed with better personnel and better play calling.  Sure, there are physical differences which are going to affect the outcomes, but you can't change it. Am I trying to ride to the defense of Bryce?  Only a little.  He's my favorite team's QB, and I believe in him.  Now, he's got this year to show that he's "the No. 1 for a reason" (Thanks CJ Stroud).  Will he, won't he?  I don't know at all.  That's on the D&D crew to put Bryce is position to play well.  Running the ball is going to make things a lot easier for Bryce.  Does that discount his success if he plays well?  For some of y'all it will.  Some of y'all just don't like Bryce, like he stole you DoorDash or something. Regardless, let's see what happens in 2024.  If Bryce stinks it up, then we're going back to the QB well again.  
    • we may think we know, but we don't know. we won't know what effect upgrades on the OL, coaching staff, and WR room will have. we don't know what scheme canales is going to put together. we don't know a lot of things.  that's why we play the games...to see what shakes out. plenty of reasons to think Bryce is limited this year...again. Plenty of reasons to see an improvement in his play. 
    • He did not elevate the players around him, but they de-elevated their QB.  A QB like Bryce needs a system, a strong OL, a Running game, and WRs that can get open.  Call him a manager at best, but so is a point guard.  That is all we should need.  He is smart enough to grow into a very effective player.  I once saw a Coach talking about the OL--i forget who it was Schottenheimer comes to mind--and he said, you can succeed if you have one weak link on the OL.  If you get 2 weak links, success comes 10x harder.  If you get three weak links, your season is over.  Your QB is injured, and you are unemployed (paraphrasing).  I would say that we had 4 weak links (Icky does not get a pass) and a RB who was not good at pass blocking. I am not saying the Bryce is the answer at QB--but I am saying we don't know yet. I know QBs (college) and when the OL sucks, they collapse mentally over time.  That is what we saw--a QB who had never played without the advantage.
