May 12, 20223 yr I don't profess to be an expert but I believe they are under contract for 3 years and a 4th restricted FA year. Base rookie salary is 705k for 2022. UDFA's can renegotiate after year 2. Of course. that's if they make the team. I saw somewhere the practice squad was about 200k for the year. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/cba/minimum/
May 12, 20223 yr Practice squad is 11.5K a week for 2 or less accrued season and 15.4K a week for more than 2 years. https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nfl/news/nfl-practice-squad-salaries-rules-2021/1wt851t0mlm9c1amafmqrx6dll
May 12, 20223 yr Thanks @Vileborg I didn't know that UDFA sign 3 year deals. I was worried that some sweet talkin team would steal Carson Strong.

May 12, 20223 yr I really hope this kid's knee holds up. He needs some fine tuning but there's alot to work with. I still cant believe we got him without spending a draft pick. He reminds me so much of Foles. Pocket passer with functional mobility, accurate, quick release & a beautiful deep ball. Strong's arm is probably stronger in terms of velocity, but they both can chuck it 60+ yards. Wish we could fuse him & Hurts together. We'd basically have Josh Allen.

Hurts doesn't have 5 minutes of highlight passes and you posted 30 for Strong. I sure hope he pans out. He just needs the same 3 rookie seasons that Hurts has had.

He just needs the same 3 rookie seasons that Hurts has had. It's crazy because according to the timeline of his injury, he's basically never been fully healthy at any point in college. Got injured in HS and the surgery he had wasnt successful. With them putting in the cadaver cartilage during the most recent surgery, hopefully this is all behind him. He made alot of throws that we see on Sunday's throughout his college career. I think he'd show alot more in 20 starts than Hurts has thus far. Redshirt him this year and we'll see from there. Excited to see what he looks like in the preseason. Hopefully the backups can protect him.

May 13, 20223 yr Strong looks the real deal from that tape. Love the way that he gets the ball out quickly and accurately. Doesn't panic and drops some absolute dimes. A lot of the longer throws are on the money and the receivers don't have to make much adjustment which is beautiful. I'm excited for this guy!

That's called being a quarterback I would love Carson Strong to turn into a franchise QB. So his highlights don’t make me remotely uneasy. But I also don’t think that 32 teams messed up on their scouting reports so badly that they missed on a potential top 10 QB, which you seem to think he is.

I think they red flagged him as an injury risk. He is still an injury risk. And, he hasn't proven that he can adjust to the NFL game yet. It's all speculation at this point.

Injury risk which I'm actually uncomfortable with. Best ability is availability

That film is just a collection of random college talent he hadn't worked with before besides Turner. I like his mobility within the pocket. Definitely way better than the beginning of the year

That may depend a lot on how much weight was given to his knee & mobility. Any quarterback needs mobility, needing mobility and a strong rushing game because his passing skills are .... uninspiring ..... is another matter.

Being unable to move in the pocket is an issue. I'm not saying that's Strong but if he can't move up, step back, slide to avoid players then he's not going to ever make it.

He'll likely have access to better medical care than he had in Nevada.
