Not sure why you think that when Insider source Adam Schefter had started the Texans they would have taken Bryce. No team who has known that OSU cannot produce reliable QB and with his s2 score to go against, would risk taken CJ over Bryce. 

 

I said I thought Young was their QB1 and Ryans is pretty much confirming it. The S2 score has shown to be useless so let’s just never mention that again. Also both had great college highlights so cherry picking one clip vs another is just comical at this point.

Who the heck ever knows but there was lots of speculation we would have just gone with Will Anderson if Bryce wasn't there. Last minute Hannah McNair got involved, the brother of Cal McNair who has done a pretty terrible job with the franchise, and pushed (told?) the FO to draft Stroud. Obviously we ended up with both guys.

I'm still a bit shell shocked from the Astros losing 4 home games in the alcs so it's clouding my vision for Sunday! I'm expecting a good game.

Texans fan chiming here.  I think that Ryan’s did in fact like both guys and would’ve been fine with whichever guy fell to us.  the only thing I think may have been different is perhaps we go ahead and take Will Anderson at 2 and then trade up for Bryce at 3 or maybe 4 instead of how it actually went.  As far as what this other Texans fan above is saying, don’t take that crap serious…it’s all speculation. The only thing we know for sure is that the owner’s wife Hannah is more involved on the PR & “rebranding” side of things with the Texans this year due to all the fallout behind all the bad coaching hires and Deshaun Watson; that’s it really. There’s 0 evidence that she had any involvement in the drafting process.  

As far as Young, I’ve been reading you guys’ threads on him & CJ all season and the long & short of it is from my standpoint is, I think he’s gonna be fine..It just looks like he wasn’t as pro-ready as draft scouts touted he was. I think the bigger issue for you guys is Reich and the offense he has him running…y’all don’t really have the personnel for it and Young’s development is suffering a little b/c of it. 
 

Wouldn’t read too much into this week’s matchup tho.  As good as CJ has been, we can’t run it and our defense kinda comes and goes. We’re still a relatively young team so learning how to consistently win is something we’re still…well, learning lol.  You guys most definitely have a shot to notch your 1st win this week especially considering y’all are at home.

    • No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.    
    • It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
