I know people will say "We don't know how Stroud does on Bears" but you could say that for anyone. The next guy Bears draft you could say "We don't know how Williams/Maye does on Bears"

Reasons for:

  • Stroud has elevated mid term WRs and gets the ball out fast.
  • He passes eye test and is MVP contender as a rookie
  • He is on a mid team overall so its kinda comparable to Bears situation

Case against doing it

  • You have 2 top 3 picks.
  • I guess you got an answer on Fields (though I already had one on Fields before this season

I love CJ, and I could be wrong, but it doesn’t seem like he gets the ball out very fast. His protection has been pretty good, somehow; he’s 5th in the league in time to throw, and based just on the Bengals game, we didn’t really pressure him at all. Believe it or not, he even had a negative CPOE while torching us, which is more of an indictment of our defense than anything. I agree though that Collins, Brown, and Dell all look great and that’s in no small part thanks to his accuracy.
