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.

    • I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.
    • This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.
    • to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
