Of all OSU QBs ever drafted, Stroud already #7 in yards (will be #3 before end of season) and is #4 in TD passes.
He’ll basically be behind juggernauts like Justin Fields, Kent Graham, and Mike Tomczak
It’s his rookie season and doing very well, is he the curse breaker?
 
Steelers QB Kenny Pickett played 21 career games, he has 13 TDs.
Texans QB CJ Stroud played 8 career games, he has 14 TDs

And we lost to Pickett's trash ass..
 
We are not last

NFL player fined $50,000 after being accused of faking concussion, Players Association says | Fox News
Hmmm.. We did set a record for injuries. Wonder how widespread this is in NFL.
Not a fan of the article.
It presents some questions like how did a player fake a consussion? Then how was it proved he faked it?

the article then speculated about Hockensen because the Min HC was caught yelling go down. The article continues the speculation that it was Hockensen who faked the concussion while mentioning his injury was clearly a leg injury.

I don’t like the effort to make that connection, it’s 2 separate instances clearly. Article even mentions the fake concussion player missed the next 2 series which Hockensen’s effort was to save a last TO no other series’s left.

if that Min injury was fake, player and HC (caught on camera) should be fined. This exact issue was addressed before, I thought, when the NYG did it, clearly faking.

I only agree with the fine on the concussion player if there was proof he faked it. Goes back to my original questions.

I mean hey... if you're a Bears player... I could definitely see the "calling in sick" approach lol.
 
Top 5 draft picks 10 years
Teams that earned a top 5 pick (before any trades)
7x Jax
5x Hou
4x Cle/ LV
3x Det/ was/ nyg/ nyj
2x TB/ TN/ chi/ SF/ IND/ Den/ ARZ/ Cin
1x KC/ Phi/ LAC/ LAR/ Dal/ Mia/ ATL
0 - NE/ Buf/ Balt/ Pit/ NO/ Car/ GB/ Min/ Sea

Actual picks top 5 last 10 years
7x Jax
4x NYJ/ Hou (2 this season)
3x Cle (2 in 2018)/ LV/ NYG/ SF/ Det
2x Cin/ Mia/ Was/ TB/ TN/ Phi/ LAR
1x KC/ IND/ Sea/ ATL/ ARZ/ Den/ Chi/ Dal/ LAC/ Buf/ Car
0x - NE/ Pit/ Balt/ NO/ GB/ Min

The flip side would be teams earning the 28-32 draft pick spots (27-31 in 2016) and which teams are picking late, if at all.

Bottom 5 earned positions by record
7x GB
6x NE
5x KC/ SF
4x Den
3x LAR
2x Phi/ Cin/ Jax/ Balt/ Pit/ ATL/ Car/ Sea/ NO
1x Mia/ Buf/ TN/ LAC/ Min/ Dal/ ARZ/ Ind
0x NYJ/ Cle/ LV/ Hou/ NYG/ Was/ TB/ Det/ Chi

Of those teams that earned a bottom 5 draft slot, these teams chose to trade and did not pick in the first round:
3x KC
2x NE/ Sea
1x GB/ LAR/ Mia

3x the pick was traded before they finished a bottom 5 pick
2019 NO
2022 SF
2022 LAR
2023 SF

Teams that traded up.
2013 ATL - moved up to 22
2013 SF - moved up to 18
2015 Den - moved up to 23
2016 Den - moved up to 26
2017 ATL - moved up to 26
2019 GB (was NO) - moved up to 21
2020 GB - moved up to 26
2020 SF - moved up to 25
2022 Det (was LAR) - moved up to 12


Take this for what’s it’s worth and extrapolate whatever you want but the overwhelming trend is teams with top 5 picks repeat as top 5 picks and teams that earn bottom 5 picks typically to the late round picks.
Apply this to the idea of tanking. Top 5 is more likely to net another top 5 pick than it is GOAT and it’s not close. Statistically, picking bottom 5 is just as likely to get that GOAT.
