Skull Session: Ohio State stars make their NFL preseason debuts, C.J. Stroud is QB1 for the 2023 draft and Terry McLaurin is inspiring the next generation of footballers.
Teague looked strong in his debut with the Steelers, rushing for 31 yards on six carries. He still faces an uphill battle to earn a roster spot in Pittsburgh as the organization returns Najee Harris, Benny Snell Jr.
and Anthony McFarland Jr. from last season’s roster. Hopefully, Teague is on head coach Mike Tomlin’s list of 53 after the preseason. While I still won’t root for the Steelers, I would appreciate hearing “Teagueeee!” rumble throughAt this time last year, C.J. Stroud had not yet thrown a collegiate pass. One season and countless broken records later, several NFL scouts toldIn a survey of 12 NFL scouts, five of them voted for Stroud to be the top quarterback in next year’s draft after he threw for 4,435 yards and 44 touchdowns with only six interceptions in his first year as a starter. “He just doesn’t make mistakes,” one scout said. “Some might see him as too cautious, but he picks apart the defenses with his accuracy and his patience.” The scouts believe front office executives and NFL head coaches will salivate over Stroud’s arm strength, which allows him to push the ball all over the field. If he continues to show improvement with his timing and accuracy outside the hash, he’ll be at the top of many NFL teams’ big boards – if he’s not there already. “He’s the most polished,” another scout said of Stroud. “You worry about that offense and his readiness from a progression standpoint, but his mechanics are clean, and he’s a big guy.” ESPN’s Matt Miller compared Stroud to Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert because of their comparable arm strength and frames. Miller also believes Stroud’s running ability “could explode in the NFL” even though he had a net loss of 20 yards on 32 rushing attempts last season. “He just doesn’t make mistakes... Some might see him as too cautious, but he picks apart the defenses with his accuracy and his patience.”To continue with NFL-related content, former Buckeye wide receiver Terry McLaurin was the latest Buckeye to spend time with fans after his team’s practice session. The Washington Commanders detailed their star wideout’s experience with the fans and interviewed his father in the latest episode of “All-Access: Washington Commanders,” revealing McLaurin’s heart behind those actions and how he wants to inspire the next generation of footballers through his compassion. "We just plain country people from Indiana. It's nothing real special about us but hard work and effort"
