I think in that scenario, Houston takes Young, Chicago trades the Pick to Carolina and Carolina takes Stroud and Indy once again ends with A rich.

I believe Stroud looks slightly less amazing but still quite good in Carolina. The credit goes to Tepper for hiring Frank Reich and his smart mix of veteran coaches and Reichs reputation as a QB guru is officially cemented. Narratives spin about Houston once again setting up yet another prospect for failure and how drafting a young quarterback demands, an offensive-minded head coach or the guy is going to fail.

Chicagos decision looks even worse and questions about the franchise’s perpetual inability to scout QBs and offensive talent is further cemented.
