CJ Stroud looks absolutely amazing and on a team that I would say is on par with our roster at best.

Poles said all along he needed to be blown away to stick at #1 and take a QB last year. By the time the combine rolled around he all but announced to the world the pick was for sale. I understand Fields showed flashes towards the end of last year and that played into that decision.

Fast forward to now and Stroud is blowing everyone away.

I think it's fair to question what our staff missed on Stroud to be out on him immediately and whether or not we should be worried about them making the next decision on who our QB is.

20/20 hindsight -- I would much rather have Stroud instead of the DJ Moore package and it's not even close. Give me a franchise QB and figure out the rest of the line and WRs after that.

This upcoming QB class, at the time, was supposed to be way better than last years. The thought was give Fields an OL and WR and if there isn't substantial progress, we will have enough draft capital to trade up in the 2024 class to get one of those guys.

Unfortunately those QBs aren't looking as surefire as they were a few months ago, but we also likely won't have to use any capital to move up since the Panthers still suck.

Caleb Williams has shown signs of being merely human, but Drake Maye's draft stock has gone up this season.
