I don't think they were "in love" with him.  I think he was their preference, but they weren't willing to part with what we did for him.  DJ Moore on a decent contract was a big selling point for the Bears.  At one point they mentioned the number 2 pick was for sale, but again who knows what is true or not.

Also I don't doubt teams had Young off their boards.  Any team wanting to have their QB under center most of the time or use their QB as a runner shouldn't consider Young.  I just don't think the Texans were one of those teams.  Shefter and Glazer are pretty solid sources IMO.  I don't see one that says the Texans never had Young on their board?

since glazer/shefter have solid sources that tells me the texans could have been playing the game of misinformation in case we took stroud.  They could have been drumming up interest for pick 2.  There was also a report they would pass on a qb last draft.

 

again the overall point is none of us know how it would have unfolded.  But I do know a qb falls damn near every year.

If we are basing this off of long term potential and what they have shown for 6 weeks obviously Stroud goes 1, Jalen Carter goes much higher but Richardson needs reps and he might be out for the year. So wasted first season. So after Stroud are you gambling on your coaching staff being able to develop Bryce better than Carolina or are you picking Levis? I think Bryce still is the second off the board. 
 

Texans could be thinking “if we did this much with CJ let’s see what we can do with somebody more pro ready”. 

More 'pro ready' but unable to make half the throws an NFL QB needs to make.

He'd go third round if they did a re-Draft based on the first 6 weeks of play and that's only cos someone would think they can fix him.

Say what you want about the Bears and their mismanagement over the years but they sniffed around Bryce Young and decided they didn't need the pick if he was the top option.  Like it or not so far they have not been wrong in that assessment.

Bingo

#1 Overall.  I hate it here.

Bryce is going to show you why in 2 weeks when he outplays Stroud. 

God we need to win so this place will be more worthwhile to spend some time here...

The past is over... the ink is dry... and we have our QB.  And yet the bitching must go on...

I have been as pissed as any fan about how this season has went, but I am 1000000% ride or die with Bryce.  IMHO, anyone who has watched him play and not been impressed with both his play and composure with this trainwreck of an offense around him, I just don't know.

I'm honestly ready for the Bryce haters to leave so we can move on with the people that are left.

Here's the thing... Hardly anyone here wanted Stroud during the draft.  The people who didn't want Bryce wanted Anthony Richardson, and he's probably out for the year with a shoulder injury.

The revisionist history in this place is like The Twilight Zone.

They also had picked & were dedicated to the Justin Fields project.  I don't think this is the smoking gun point you think it is...

As they should have, but you clearly forget or are ommitting that just about everybody was calling them dumb for not keeping the pick because they were convinced fields was a lost cause and a bust. I lot of people on this forum said the same thing so there is your smoking gun...

So you're saying that Fields got a whole two years before the "bust" label? Hmm...

 

Btw, we really need to stop with the x-ray navel gazing as a fan base and be a bit more level headed in our (justifiable) criticism. The Bears are nationally and even locally known to be a colossally badly-run organization and have been for a long time. People are actually questioning if it's time for the Halas family to give up the team. I get that people are down on Bryce, but down on him to the point of giving kudos to the Bears?

Well if we are gonna go down that road... i dont even know if you can an even count fields rookie year as a real evaluation considering the bad coaching,  no oline, no receivers, not being a starter yet, and bad roster. Then on to last year the same problems existed and when you think about it, WHAT DO U KNOW...THEY WERE THE SAME THINGS PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT BRYCE NOW AND HIS ABILITY TO SUCCEED. The difference is, fields was actually able to lead the bears to a few wins off his shear talent alone with everything bad around him so the bears felt he was worth the investment. I think thats enough to deserve some kudos.

Maybe but they also decided Stroud wasn't the guy either.  I wonder how they feel about passing up him as their next QB and flipping Fields for picks.

I agree with a lot of what you are saying, but Stroud was the Huddle favorite and it wasn't that close.  It was Stroud, Young, and only a couple Richardson fans (most were just intrigued by him but admitted he was a risk).  After Carolina decided we were taking Young the pendulum swung back to Young, but that's just fans being fans.

If ‘top 10’ were an option, I would have chosen that. 

The question is one thing I am answering a different thing. Where I would feel okay and if it were 9 and he was the best that we could do at 9 I would understand taking him, even if he weren’t my first choice (his limitations are so much easier to deal with at 9).

Where he would be drafted? Do we get 9 back? I wouldn’t take him higher than 9 because that is our pick and I prioritize future assets, but someone might. To whom I would be saying bless your little hearts (thank you for the picks!) See I’d be okay trading out of 9 for someone who wants to take him. 

Hah, now I’m just back to what I would do, not what teams would do. Ours would probably just take him at 1 again if they could get to the pick.

Pre draft I would have been fine taking Young at 9. Now I would pass.

Why doesn’t the 65 percent of this fanbase…. Just go be Texans fans. It’s that simple. You’re this married to your guys who’s “clearly better and will be better after 5 games”, just go be a Texans fan. I’m sure they’re taking. There are 612 threads that slight Bryce and prop up Stroud. We get it. Strouds played well. Bryce is hard to measure. We’re beating a dead horse with this constant “get a stroud panthers card, where would bryce be taken, Bryce isn’t good at _____”. He’s. Not. Our. Guy. Get over it.

You spent weeks before the draft engaging anyone that had even a slight concern about Young as if they were attacking your own child. Now you want people to leave because they aren't towing the company line to your liking because things have gone about as bad as they possibly could. If you dislike it here so much you should seek a different community.

    • I went to Canes games back in '04 & '05 when you were probably still a swimmer waiting to make your dad a father. There was no one there bc they sucked. Some of the lowest attendance in the NHL. As a Panthers fan coming off a SB season (03-04), I couldn't even believe they put a hockey team in Raleigh, and given the attendance, a lot of people speculated they would be relocated somewhere back up north where they would be supported and not "Mayberry." Seriously, educate youself.  That is reality. That being said, comparing that environment to 2024 Canes would be disingenuous. I was at PNC last year and know how great the current environment is. Comparing the current environment at BOA to 10 years ago is just as disingenuous.  Just bc you didn't witness how good BOA is when the Panthers are actually decent doesn't change reality. Seriously, surely you see that coming from such an elitist environment like the globally renowned world-class city of Raleigh, NC... I guarantee you if you went to a Canes game and a Panthers game in 2005, the difference would be unreal bc the Panthers were awesome and the Canes were (at the time) a moribund franchise. I have been in BOA when the whole stadium was rocking. You simply are young, don't know what you're talking about, but want to portray yourself as having knowledge about things you simply don't. You have a lot in common with modern day politicians and televangelists Like I said, Idiocracy has prevailed... Have a great day too! 
    • Let it all out bro.   At the end of the day Charlotte fans just aren't that passionate as other fans. The Panthers and Hornets crowds are wack.    Go to a Canes game and you will understand this. Tell the family I said hi and Happy Father's Day.
    • Dude you have no idea what you're talking about. Best place to live?  LMAO... that's your criteria...  Charlotte gets put all over those lists too... come on man... and those lists have zero to do with sports. I'm done after this bc I'm punching down intellectually here... The Panthers have been bad for 6 years now. You are obviously young and not overly educated based off the "dunks" you're putting out there that certainly are, so let me educate you today on the Panthers. The Panthers sold out for well over a decade straight. BOA has been as good an environment as there is when the team is good.  Fan support for the Panthers has been incredible when the team has even remotely reciprocated. The idea that Charlotte doesn't support the Panthers is utter BS. People in Raleigh have the biggest little brother syndrome of all time... Nobody outside of the Triangle cares about any of your "vaunted" sports team outside of Duke-UNC in basketball on a national scale. Sure, the Canes are great. But nationally, the WWE dwarfs the NHL in ratings. More people care about Cody Rhodes than Sebastian Aho... or anyone else in the NHL for that matter... I doubt less than 5% of anyone in this state outside of Raleigh even knows who that is... that's a knock on Aho who is a great player, it's just the NHL barely makes a ripple in the overall hierarchy of American sports. It's not in the same universe as the NFL or NBA no matter how badly you want to tell yourself otherwise. Raleigh is not a big-time sports city, no matter how much you want to scream into the abyss about it. Neither is Charlotte. But no one here is making such a nonsense argument... LOL it's good to be young and to be ignorant enough to be confidently wrong... WTF are you even on this board though since Charlotte is so beneath you? There is an actual discussion board on this very site for Raleigh sports since they are so superior...  Maybe it's bc I'm watching Idiocracy with my son, but your timing is perfect, my man... The dumbest among us have become the most confidence in their ignorance... God Bless America!!
