    Of course it was a joke. The fan boys on this forum are desperate.
    I am in no way afraid Stroud will be good, I’m afraid he’s going to be Dak/Cousins/Goff.
    That’s his realistic upside, and it’s not good enough.

    I think he's going to struggle at times early, but I think he's going to be every bit as good as Burrow has been, within a couple years. Anything short of that, and I'll be disappointed.

    Be prepared to be disappointed.

    He’s not Burrow in any capacity. He’s not the athlete or the ability under pressure.
    He has a slim chance of being a lesser Burrow or Matt Ryan.

    What's with the Keenum situation?

    I've maybe never been more wrong about a player. I would have bet just about anything that he would be a 10 year starter in the league, but damn he looks completely lost at times.

    He’s bipolar.
    Before this game he had a damn near perfect pass protection rating with no pressures given up.
    Then was spun around like he had no idea what he’s doing

    Prepare yourself for disappointment and I hope you're right.

    Exactly. I haven't given up on him completely, but he's just not good enough to rely on yet, and he might not ever be. I just never saw it coming from him. He should be so much better than he is right now.

    It also looks like he hurt his shoulder again. Hopefully he didn't tear a pec.

    You're right. Something definitely looked off. He might very well be hurt again.

    I don’t doubt stroud can be serviceable, I have his upside at best Tyrod Taylor not exactly what you want with the #2 overall pick. I don’t think Bryce was the right pick either, objectively speaking and being realistic his ceiling is kellen Moore. It’s the divisional rival in the titans the we should worry about, if all things go their way Levis has a REALISTIC ceiling of Josh Allen or Patrick Mahomes and modest floor of Ben Rosthlisburger

    Yes these projections are mine but they’re definitely Uberly accurate! Everyone should accept them as the norm.

    Lol.

    You had me there for a second. Well played.

    Pretty spot-on impression.

    Do you think I’ve pulled comps out of thin air? They’re from scouting reports and physical comps.
    Apparently, even though you project an aura of intelligence you’re highly illiterate. Bryce was my number 1 guy, but you seem to think I’m a Levis stan. It’s more anyone but Stroud.
    The 3 others QBs in the draft, 4 if you include Hooker, are more like the new age style of QBs.
    That’s just the truth. Sorry

    Stupid take, but funny nevertheless.

    This is the Dumbest take Ive ever seen on this board. Even the Titans don’t think that high on Levis. Malik Willis beat him out for #2 in Tennessee. Tyrod Taylor? God, you have no ****ing clue. Stroud has 2 things that great QBs need: accuracy and ball placement. They are not necessarily the same. You can put a ball where the receiver can catch it, but can you put the ball where only your receiver has a realistic chance of catching it. That make QBs great. Coming out of college with those traits puts Stroud ahead of the game.

    Doing a very poor job of it. It makes no sense whatsoever. Nowhere did I make imaginary comps or throw out poor ones regarding the better prospect in Bryce
    Sorry y’all can’t handle the comps thrown out predraft.
