Stroud has 163 yards passing in the first half today. Bryce has 153 yards passing in the first half total for both games he played in. And you can't use garbage time as the excuse for the difference in this one. He also just orchestrated a terrific two minute drive to get another field goal before the half.

Richardson was the one I wanted.

Stroud was the one I initially figured they'd pick once the trade was made - he even has the God squad thing going for him.

Stroud is making all these throws in tight windows, these receivers are not getting open like people say. He is putting the ball only where they get it.  More importanty he is getting the ball out quickly when needed. 

Also, put me down as someone who said i would take him over lawrence and i meant it. That guy aint showed me enough yet.

Yep

hard to tell if stroud was in Reich’s offense if he would look the same 

we will find out today 

Dalton still has an arm….granted he still can throw interceptions too..but he has an arm and he won’t have the hesitancy Young had 

still. Even if young was the wrong pick, nothing the Panthers can do about it for at least two years so why care.

Lawrence seems like he's on a Derek Carr type trajectory. Good QB. Legit starter. But might max out as a borderline top 10 type of guy. Definitely not what was expected out of him as a prospect.

He's not accurate enough - it was all over his tape in College and has carried over to the NFL.

It's only a minor thing - he gets the ball where it needs to be (or at least in the 'area code'), but the elite QBs put it on the correct shoulder 9 times out of 10. Lawrence doesn't.

    • 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.
