Dude has some GREAT pocket awareness, feels pressure well and moves around to avoid defenders while keeping his eyes downfield. He even steps up in the pocket instead of bailing backwards.

Dude has a canon arm too. Like flick of the wrist and ball goes 50 yards. 

He has all the potential in the world to be a great QB, but would we have the staff to develop him?

He can't hit the broadside of a barn

 

What good is a cannon if you miss?

If we are going to go, might as well go hard.  Roll the dice with this kid and see what happens.   fug it, the way I see it, its either we win the lottery or a total reset in 3 years.

At this point I think he is a realistic option for us as I think we will be out of Young and Stroud range. The argument for him over Levis is they are both projects but Richardson potential is through the fuging roof

And age. Also Richardson was the best player on the team, his WR's let him down a lot. Levis looked like a bad QB on a bad team this year.

Hell, if he interviews well it wouldn't be surprising to see him go top 10.

Maybe. I've think he's be a top 15 guy and just out of the top 10 even if he interviews extremely well. Though this could change if Stroud looks really bad in the playoffs against Georgia and teams look elsewhere.

It's going to depend on our next coach.

The athletic talent is tantalizing.  Dude has all of the tools.  Were he struggles related to a lack of talent and execution on the team or how much of that was on his own?

I actually made an effort to watch some Florida ball this year for him specifically.  I have no idea =P  Like you can see the tools.  Man, he's got some gifts!  But I saw a bunch of times when he's throwing layups where he missed a dude by 10 feet.  How much of that is on him versus the play or his teammate?

That's what makes picking a QB hard.  If we drafted him, I'd be excited for him and us.  But again, I have no idea how it's going to go for him in the run up to the draft.  Like most QBs, he'll be pushed up.

His bust factor is absolutely astronomical. 

It will be interesting to see this play out.

But his hit may be the adverse.  Could be a josh allen nfc clone if done correctly.  Odds are squarely against that but fug it, lets have some fun.   At the baseline, the absolute baseline, he would put fannies in seats and at least be interesting for a short period.   I think once people start watching his highlights and see just how big and fast he is along with probably a top 3 arm in the nfl then folks are going to start to take notice

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      You're not reading.  This isn't about his college performance. It's about his NFL prospects. The Golden Calf of Bristol was one of the greatest college players of all time. That didn't mean he was a great NFL prospect. Hunter is an elite of the elite NFL CB prospect who was a great college WR too based primarily on absurd physical talent and just natural ball skills. Could he be an elite WR if he focused on that? Honestly, probably. But in terms of him being the best WR prospect in this draft? No. His skill set is just way too raw as a WR. He just looks way more natural and instinctual playing CB.

      Is running back on the table for the panthers this draft?

      By Johnstonny · Posted

      Yea...another Brooks move and I yelling. I'll reserve that till I see how many holes he fills in the draft. We all know our needs at this point.

      AND THERE IT IS Thank you, because you posted this as I was typing up my previous response and you did EXACTLY what I said the Hunter defenders do. You're taking people having very legitimate concerns about how part of his game will translate to the NFL and making it into someone talking bad about him as a college player. THEY ARE NOT THE SAME THING Go back and read every post I made about him this year, I consistently said he's a true generational collegiate talent, one of the rarest of them all.  But that doesn't mean jack squat when it comes to evaluating what kind of player he'll be in the NFL, or even just what position is best for him. If you want to think differently, that's totally fair, but pointing to things like stats and awards is just making you look like you don't know what you're talking about, because they don't mean anything.  There are so many instances of players putting up elite stats in college but couldn't sniff being even a serviceable NFL player.  Which again, isn't what myself or others are saying about Hunter, but it's just the proof that looking at stats/awards is a fools errand when projecting NFL potential and impact.
