Very beefy and nasty front 7, not exceptionally skilled in the secondary. It was a good matchup for Stroud, and he played well enough, but I expected that.
This makes me nervous. Honestly, I’m content with getting Anderson so we can lock in this defensive front with him and Paye, picking up a QB later, and trying to make sure we have the draft capital go get a no brainer pick in the future.

Watch him. I don't care how stacked the receiver room is if he makes play after play in a similar fashion to Aaron Rodgers. That type of playmaking ability doesn't just evaporate as receiver quality diminishes, and it was on full display against the best defense he could've possibly faced.
