CJ Stroud looks absolutely amazing and on a team that I would say is on par with our roster at best.
Poles said all along he needed to be blown away to stick at #1 and take a QB last year. By the time the combine rolled around he all but announced to the world the pick was for sale. I understand Fields showed flashes towards the end of last year and that played into that decision.
Fast forward to now and Stroud is blowing everyone away.
I think it’s fair to question what our staff missed on Stroud to be out on him immediately and whether or not we should be worried about them making the next decision on who our QB is.
20/20 hindsight – I would much rather have Stroud instead of the DJ Moore package and it’s not even close. Give me a franchise QB and figure out the rest of the line and WRs after that.
Any process that involves passing on a rookie QB that’s on pace to have the best rookie season in NFL history stands to be questioned. I am not saying it was obvious he was going to be this good. I am saying they sure as shit be asking themselves what they missed in scouting him.
He isn’t setting those records here with no DJ, no Darnell Wright and with Getsy calling plays. You should be a scout since you knew he was going yo be a superstar!
