    Chill out my man. Y’all stop dissing on a QB just to prop up another QB. I don’t care who it is, just stop.

    Came across this article on the S2 cognition test. I know we're all experts on it now, but the article points out a couple of interesting things. It notes that scoring high hasn't always equaled success, but that scoring poorly doesn't always equal poor career either. The top-tier starters all had scores better than 74 (they only tested 27 of 32 starters), but what they called "low-tier starters" scores ranged from 8-90. But they also had Backups and undrafted players score well into the 90's.

    The big takeaway, is that CJ Stroud's S2 score will ultimately affect him from a success probability standpoint the same way Bryce's frame will affect him. They're both in uncharted territory when it comes to their reported flaws (frame and S2 scores), compared to their predecessors. At the end of the day, I think we've all come to the conclusion that trading down wouldn't be the worst thing that could happen. But they definitely need to leave the top-10 with one of the big-4 QBs. That way we have something to argue about later... :D

    Nope, turning the page to next year where they’re already experts on next year’s class
    and you can find them in the GARM in the next 2 months breaking down the NBA draft too! ;)

    Will Caserio be handing in his resignation letter? :oops:

    Praise be.

    I have come to absolutely loathe the draft.

    What an obnoxious amount of smoke for such very little fire.

    It’s funny people b****ing about people talking about prospects for the NFL Draft.
    The thread doesn’t say NFL Draft or anything, not at all.
    Get over it

    I’m totally chill. Stop lumping me in with other peeps. I dont particularly like any of the qbs and I’ve barely watched any of them play…I’m not pretending to be an expert. If me expressing my thoughts that stroud has red flags and levis is a turd with good measurables is bothering you then maybe you should chill

    young is a risk too but I’d rather risk a guy being small than not being good

    This is the boat I'm in as well. If the Lord gives the Panthers the courage to take Stroud #1, I'd stomp the floor for us to get Bryce, other than that, I think I can be talked into just about anything else with the way these reports have come out.

    Ultimately, I think despite Stroud's tape against Georgia, he's definitely got some red flags that should make Texans fans nervous. I can't wait until Thursday to talk myself into how whatever move Caserio makes was the right move...Lol. I do think they would LOVE to trade back to #3 or 4, get more assets and just take the best player available.

    So is it that you want Stroud at 2, or just think Stroud is better than Levis?

    Preach!!.. I've never had draft fatigue until this year.. I can't even listen to A.M radio or any ESPN draft coverage anymore until the draft starts .. They bring up these scenarios out their asses, talk like they know it will happen, then say " It's unlikely but a possibility ".. **** pathetic

    Stroud will be the highest rated prospect in the Texans biggest need at 2. Yes I would take him.

    I can understand that. I disagree that he’s worth the number 2 pick, but I understand the logic

    Nothing AR has done has shown he’s better than Levis, by any stretch.
    This is where the bias is showing.

    I just noticed that Levis' stats are eerily similar to Davis Mills rookie stats.

    Who was the 6th QB the Texans brought in for the Top 30? Hooker, Richardson, Levis, Stroud, Young. I know they talked to Tune, but Tune is a local prospect who shouldn't be considered a part of the Top 30 visits.
