    I’ll give him a chance for sure, he has a lot of work to do under pressure.

    Id actually predict this and might prefer it... what's the rush since we are a few years away anyway. Learn. Grow. If he earns the starting spot because he is playing good football, then that's a bonus.

    The quicker we find out he’s a bust the quicker we move on

    Bro, give it a rest. Everyone knows your opinion of Stroud. Let’s let it play out now.

    People have to settle down. Its about the long haul, not the first quarter of the season. People label these guys busts way too soon.

    It’s not even so much that I know he’s gonna bust, even if he doesn’t, he doesn’t have upside.

    My assumption here is that we’re just going to end up getting Zach Wilson’ed or Sam Darnold’ed. hope I’m wrong. Just seems like a great college player. The transition is such a big gap—someone tell me why my gut is wrong. can he be the guy? Can he win a SB?

    No disrespect to Matt Schaub and Steve McNair, but arguably not since Warren Moon has Houston seen a true franchise QB.

    I’m sorry, but not a fan. Rather have drafted Levis at 12 & kept our picks. Hope he proves me wrong.

    Early in the draft process, I said that Stroud would be the third QB on our board and possibly off of it.


    I'm ready to eat a big plate of crow now. I was wrong. I hope this dude is the best QB in franchise history. Wishing him nothing but the best. I'm super excited for him.

    I'm tempted to go 3, 3, and 2024 #2 to move up for JaxonSmith-Njigba...

    I feel like our biggest needs would be checked off...

    Would make for some fun marketing with Stroud...

    I voted "yes", but honestly I don't have strong feelings about this guy one way or the other.
