Looked it up. So that would be trading 2022 1st rounders with CHI, plus a 2022 3rd, and our 1st + 5th in 2023.

Of course, in 2004, NYG's 1st was the #4 overall and another franchise QB.

Stroud>Young>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Lev is

This. While I'm not fully sold on either of Stroud or Young as being franchise-changing QBs, they're definitely a tier/notch above Levis in this year's class.

We know the Bears and Cardinals won't draft a QB. The wildcard is the Seahawks...are they ok with Geno Smith as their QB going forward?

Keeping a very close eye on this Broncos/Chargers game. Really need the Broncos to win. That slots us in at #4 and should guarantee us one of Stroud or Young. A quick, cursory Google searching of mocks seem to have Young as the first QB off the board right now and the majority of the ones I viewed had the Seahawks taking a defensive player, not a QB.

Geno had a good year but he's 32 and tons of missed games.

It's looking like the Broncos are going to help us out. LAC pulling starters, too. We should have the #4 overall with CHI and ARZ not needing a QB.

Almost everyone has Young #1, Stroud #2.

Or I spoke too soon and the Broncos are going to blow it. 3 point lead now.

Broncos won.

Whew. So we have the #4 pick locked up.

I'd comp Young to Russell Wilson and Stroud to Aaron Rodgers. Between that and the height is why I want Stroud.

hell no to trading up.


just sit tight and take whatever qb is there. unless the gm doesn't like him.

Holder said he fully expects that Ballard will be back from everything he's heard. We're screwed.

That means we get Carr and a right guard in the draft
