    This works if the Bears stand pat and take Carter or Anderson and if the Texans are content to take the third QB on the chance that AZ trades down to a QB hungry team.

    Could also see a scenario where Texans sign Jimmy G. + draft Will Anderson at 2 + trade 1-12 (& 2024 1st + 3-76 + Greenard) to AZ for 1-3 (Stroud)

    No doubt the Texans will find out or already know as all medicals are available to the teams.

    So it looks like Texans are drafting Richardson.

    He's going to be a long time backup.

    He's much smaller than Wilson. I dont care what his combine weight said. Why isn't he willing to be weighed again at his pro day? Look at Young/Wilson's legs.

    Maybe I'm just having issues reading this morning. Drafting Young will mean more wins faster, same with Stroud. No championships

    Combine measurements

    Wilson 5’ 10” 5/8 - 204 LBs
    Young 5’ 10” 1/8 - 204 LBs

    Don’t care what your personal feelings are these are the measurements taken at the combine. Wilson is 1/2 inch taller so yeah they are the same size.

    Van Ness and Campbell would solve a lot that's wrong with the Texans defense. Add a Guy like Zach Allen in FA and the defense would be much improved. With that said, give me Nolan Smith at 1-12.

    At some point soon Hartline will be in the NFL. I want no part of Ohio state QBs, but their WRs, OL, and DL come in NFL ready usually.

    Every other top rated QB at the combine that threw was healthy. It's like Young was running from the competition. Had he showed out at the combine he would've been a lock to be 1-1 despite his size. I read somewhere in the twitter verse that he wasn't going to be weighed again at his pro day.

    I'm hoping they sign Jimmy G then trade back into the bottom of the 1st and draft Hooker, so they get the 5th year option. That's if they have to draft a QB in this draft. I would rather they wait until 2024.

    Every other QB also has questions about their QB ability and skills. Bryce Young’s only knock is his size. On pure QB ability/skill Bryce is a class above this group of QBs and only had one other guy in college that was better. His size is a very legitimate thing against him, but his size doesn’t take away from the fact that he’s unquestionably the best pure QB in this draft.

    The rumor is that he won't weight in at his pro-day, just throw.

    What?

    He didn't want to compete and doesn't want to weigh again. Facts, not conspiracy.

    I never said anything differently, other than to point out the lack of success except for a few outliers QB's his size have had in NFL history.

    You act like coaches and GMs have zero idea what they are doing and you could do it better. Pretty sure they know what is important to them, what questions to ask and what medical information they need. Just curious, have you heard in any media or read where any GM or coach has a question about Young’s health?
