    Agree on the annoying chime. .. how bout a huge gong!
    PLEASE NO on moving up for ANY QB! And I get a really bad feeling about Stroud. I am aware that this will make me look even crazier than I do BUT
    This is what worries me most about Stroud -

    There has NEVER been a Ohio St QB drafted into the NFL that has been worth a damn (much less worth a 1st round pick).

    All across Michigan there've probably been countless animal sacrifices inside of basement pentagrams for decades!

    As I have said before, I have always been conservative in my draft desires. It goes back to the idea that there are no sure fire draft picks and an element of bust in all of them. Otherwise, it would be an easy process. Belicik used to trade out of first round constantly and acquire more picks. He would end up drafting 10 or more players each draft thereby increasing the odds of finding a few winners.

    For me, all of the top 4 QB's have flaws, but I would also not have seen Mahomes as a sure fire, so there is that.

    Schefter says that Bryce Young is 5' 10.5" tall. Or should I say short?

    Nickname Dorf?

    No way I would draft this guy either. Takes a Mike Ditka type who rolls the dice more than I would. Of course if we had an 11th round, maybe I could see the risk/reward

    More than his lack of height, his build is even more frail than Tua,
    and Tua really should not still be playing in the NFL. I hate it for gifted talented athletes who are brilliant football players. . .. BUT the NFL is brutal, and if you ain't built for it you are at too great a risk of traumatic life ruining injury. Flutie had a heavier build and was a tough lil' fucker.

    Nothing better than watching the Rams have to go to Bloomington and play in the snow.
    Of course, Jack Youngblood was one of the toughest SOB's to ever play, so cold did not phase him

    Moving up for a QB...please...NO!

    Drafting a QB at 9...please...NO!

    Draft BPA at 9 or move down and build draft capital...YES!

    There are talented role players in this draft...moreso than game breaking talent...just sayin'
