Just think about the level of stud you gotta be to wear #15 at UF.

Speaking of which... how in the fug is #15 at UF not retired??? We all mock The Golden Calf of Bristol in the NFL but nobody should be wearing that jersey at Florida.

I will say this about him. I have seen some people try to compare his rawness to Willis. That's not right because AR is much further along, and of course he played in a big boy conference. That being said, he put up some stinkers due to the level of competition which is concerning. He couldn't sit back like Willis and look like a men among boys, running it and chucking it all over the field at will.

The question for Willis is whether or not he'll be able to read pro defenses and make the proper reads. This is the same question for Corral, but Corral didn't have accuracy issues. Where Richardson should have it over Corral is running ability and durability. He's bigger and presumably stronger, but the mental aspect of the game is just as important, and it's not like Corral doesn't have good mobility himself. 

It will be interesting for sure if we're the ones that actually draft Richardson.

Corral has accuracy issues on his deep balls - he literally changes his throwing motion to throw the ball deep.

I think if you get the green light on him from your psychologists / coaches - whoever analyses his drive / coachability then you could convince yourself to take him over Young and Stroud. 

Takes a brave GM to do that though considering their relative production in College.

I'm super intrigued by Richardson but he's definitely boom or bust. No doubt about that.

I'll be excited as hell if we draft him because that means that our very qualified and experienced coaching staff (whew, that's a relief) believes in him and their ability to develop him. I won't throw a fit if we don't draft him because then the opposite would be true and I do trust this staff to make this call more so than any staff we've ever had.

I'll honor the honeymoon for a period, whether a year or two, but all this needs to lead to something. I would give them three depending upon progress, but the Rhule experience and age has made me just a little more impatient.

Oh, for sure. Competence and experience doesn't automatically guarantee success. You can still swing and whiff. Bill Belichick has had no shortage of bad draft picks.

Trading up to 3 makes a lot of sense. Hopefully the Colts jump to 1 and take “that Alabama guy” the Texans fall in love with Levis and we get Stroud at 3. AR would be the backup option…

Nobody should be able to wear 15 at Florida. I agree. As a college player there were few with better resumes.

I’m a fan of AR15 thanks to @LinvilleGorgeback in October.. however, as JT O’Sullivan showed in QB school - AR’s great are great and his bads are really bad. 
 

however, that’s the polarity you get with a player like AR. High risk, high reward.

Yes. His body of work is small but what is there, and what is good is outerworldly

My feeling is that what he has cannot be taught

what he needs to improve on can be taught and the Panthers have teachers 

others disagree and that’s ok but for me it’s Stroud because he is an already baked cake or it’s AR who could become something very special in a world of Carrs and Tannehills

people who think this guy is going to get out of the top 10 are kidding themselves

I'm personally hoping Levis blows it up leading up to the draft and goes really high to someone not us.
