I can't make any promises. Someone gets too drunk/pissed and goes way off the rails then I'll put them in timeout, but I don't plan on being strict.

But if we draft Levis I'm banning everyone and then myself. 

I will gladly accept said ban. Because at that point being a Panthers fan should get you banned from everything.

I had hoped for CJ Stroud long before we traded to #1, but you can't help not liking Young.  I'm excited either way and will get behind whoever they pick.

Almost like it's perfectly reasonable to think he's an awesome person but still perhaps not one's preferred QB.

Disclaimer I always make in these conversations: I have zero preference in this matter and do not follow/could not care less about college football. I'm just here to comment on the obvious.

Steph was more of a 2 in college and coming to the NBA he’s more of just a G. How the Warriors offense has run wasn’t always traditional Steph just walk up the court with the ball. Prime Draymond was more of a facilitator than him. 

His height has nothing to do with anything, Steph would have to like 5'7" for his height to be a factor. He is not small for a G. Tons of guys have played G in the NBA well below Stephs height.

Barely any have played QB in the NFL at Bryces size, its not a good comparison.

Why are we talking about Steph Curry?  He plays basketball.  Football is a different sport.  Soccer is another different sport.  So Bryce is Leo Messi?  I don’t get it

Ronda rousey’s career comes to mind and sums up the young/stroud debate if you really think about it

cant day the same for steph tho

maybe Marty Hurney

All sports are comparable to an extent. The reason it’s brought up is because of correlation to another undersized play maker. If you want to stay within sport the common theme there is Brees. I don’t get why people get triggered so much by things that are relatively similar in concept. 

Steph isn't undersized, he's bigger than Isiah Thomas (both), AI, Mugsy, Spud, Morant, Paul, etc..He's not some trailblazer because of his height

I see everybody seems blown away by this interview for some reason. It was a pretty basic athlete interview imo. But yeah he seems down to earth and humble

Yeah not much going on in that. He's mature for his age but he's been coached up for this for 10 years. I thought the CJ pivot was more interesting

Agreed, he seems to have the character and mental acuity that every team searches for in a QB. If this guy was even just 6'1, he would probably be the consensus number 1 by far. Very hard to not like him. Someone like that as a franchise player would most definitely rub off on others around him especially if he turns out to be any good.

It’s not his height that gives folks here pause, it’s his weight and frame. If he looked like he could get close to 220 and not lose any of his athletic ability he would have been the unquestioned #1 pick and folks would have never pushed for Stroud or Richardson as our pick.

This is my worry - they're going to be drawn in by the off the field stuff and ignore the on the field stuff.

on field stuff like winning the Heisman in 2021 and carrying a lackluster Alabama offense last season lmao, are you trolling or ?

[MechaZain]

It's incredible to me that this dude has been badgered about his size his whole playing career and doesn't have a chip on his shoulder over it. He is a winner and carries himself like one. Been too long since we had that QB.

[amcoolio]

Size isn't an issue. It's whether or not he learns how not to get hit, like Drew Brees and Tom Brady. And the NFL is increasingly making it harder to hit the QB every year.

That is simply not true at all.
