*apparently false scores leaked* STROUD SCORES 18% ON S2 TEST (or maybe not)


Recommended Posts

OH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Quote

“Stroud scored 18,” an executive said. “That is like red alert, red alert, you can’t take a guy like that. That is why I have Stroud as a bust. That in conjunction with the fact, name one Ohio State quarterback that’s ever done it in the league.”

Justin Fields has started two seasons for Chicago, and among Buckeye retirees the ex-Bear Mike Tomczak might be next. It certainly wouldn’t be first-round busts Dwayne Haskins (2019) and Art Schlichter (1982).

Haener, during a recent appearance at the 49ers’ visit day for local prospects in Santa Clara, Calif., admitted being told he did well on the S2. “I try to show people how I can process, how I can see things,” he told reporters.

Young’s extraordinary score was in keeping with the anticipatory type of play that evaluators often cite as one of his greatest assets.

“The only guy play-style-wise I can compare him to is Joe Burrow in his LSU year,” said an executive with extensive NFL experience. “Bryce is the best combination of poise, processing, instincts, toughness. This kid feels and sees so much.”

When another executive was informed that Stroud scored extremely low, he said that it confirmed what he had seen on tape.

“That was my concern with him,” the scout said. “His personality is just sort of calm and mellow and laidback, and that’s the way he plays. You look at how Bryce Young plays and how Stroud plays, I don’t see how anyone can look at those two play football and you’d want that guy (Stroud) over Young. Bryce’s mind is so quick and he processes so fast. Whereas with Stroud, everything is much, much more programmed.”

 

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I find it hard to believe but C.J. Stroud and his people should address this issue  regardless.

there's little they can do, because it wouldn't exactly help if they say "No actually my client got a 50."

By their own admission these tests are based on neuro cognitive batteries that we use to evaluate psychiatric, behavioral, cognitive, neurodegenerative etc conditions. They have neuropsych phds on their board to make it appear more valid. 
 

When I order those batteries, the results/analysis are a paper brick across dozens of specific tests. Each result is multiple paragraphs describing strengths and weaknesses within the specific test, then ends with an aggregate percentile. 
 

they’re just leaking this percentile with no context and no correlation to anything. To say nothing that the specific part they leaked is about cognition. 
 

using any kind of test to attempt to objectively measure cognition is very problematic and always veers into Bell Curve race science bullshit. 
 

Put another way, if I ordered a neuro psych battery on someone, then leaked results, I would be guilty of medical malpractice and sued into oblivion. 
 

how is this different?

these S2 cognition test are not protected by HIPAA, thats how they are different.

so? HIPAA was passed in 1996; Moses didn’t bring it down from the mount. 
 

medical malpractice is medical malpractice regardless of whether or not it’s from a “covered entity”

I’m not reading this entire thread, but I heard the guy who owns the company say that all the top QBs from this class did well. Unless he lied, I’d take this with a grain of salt. 

That's because he doesn't consider Stroud a top QB! 😐

 

 

Sorry. Just anticipating what some goofball might say in response 😄

I see where you are coming from but if Stroud did not score 18% but somewhat higher, they could just say that was an untrue rumor and not have to reveal the actual score, then let it go.

That way a positive spin would be out about his test, regardless of his actual score.

Still rooting for the young man. 

Same. He's still my preferred choice, though not my expected one.

Also not a big analytics guy, honestly. I'm one of those guys who would much rather scout football tape than lay a bunch of numbers out on a spreadsheet.

I'm okay with using analytics, but they shouldn't be valued over what you see on the field.

    • It is hard to win in the NFL. I’m never going to put an * next to a Dub.
    • We had a very favorable matchup our o-line manhandles theirs. Even Etienne looked like he would have had a great game on his limited rushing opportunities. 
    • I think that's part of the problem, he's spreading the ball around too much, many of them are the first read play calls, and on top of that, a large portion of them are purposefully called screens or other short passes. I just looked, the Cardinals are the only other team in the league right now without at least 3 players with 100+ yards receiving so far this year, with the majority of teams having 4 or more.  And even then, their #2 right now is McBride with over 200 yards. Our 2nd leading receiver this year has 108 yards (albeit with 4 more players with 82 or more). On the surface, that might not be as alarming as you might think, but when you add into it that Bryce is currently 6th in the league in pass attempts, and it's even more alarming that he hasn't gotten a 3rd player to 100 yards so far and his second highest is only 108. XL has 39 yards on 18 targets.  Renfrow has 82 yards on 24 targets.  Tremble has 87 on 16 targets.  Sanders has 92 on 14 targets. None of those are good enough, so why aren't we calling more plays with T-Mac as the first read and forcing the ball to him (and again, that's not me wanting my guy to get more targets, that's me wanting more targets for the only productive pass catcher so far this year, I'd feel the same no matter what that player's name was). All of this is why I have issues with Canales' play calling.  How do you have a player who had 73 yards in the first half and then you only give him 1 target in the 2nd half despite playing from behind the majority of that time? You can be happy about the win, happy about Dowdle getting 200 yards, but in a game where your QB threw it 30 times, I can't accept the above sentence in the same breath, that's just terrible play calling, which is on top of the already predictable play calling in general, which is also on top of boring play designs as well. Add it all up, and THAT is why I'm unhappy even after a win, not because "my guy" didn't have a bigger game.
