Anthony Richardson has the most upside of any quarterback to come out of the draft in the last 5-10 years. Yes that includes guys like Mahomes and Josh Allen. He is THAT gifted athletically. The ONLY question is can he become a consistent passer. That's it. And if Reich and the boys feel that Richardson's flaws are fixable? Don't be shocked if he is the pick. ESPECIALLY if they are put off by anything they find in Stroud.

This is a fact!

 

The question is can he be coached up?

 

Stroud is NFL ready right now. If you have the #1 pick you go with the sure thing. If we trade back then AR is probably your guy. Either way im not mad.

Reports are that Tepper likes Levis 

puke. he would be a stretch at 9, good player with upside but lot of concerns. Stroud/Young are the only options at 1. If we do anything other than 1 of them then my faith in this team, of which I have very very little as it is, will be completely gone.

Not at all...

If you like more than one player equally, you could move back, gain additional picks to make your roster even better and still get one of the guys you wanted.

Don't know that anything like that will happen but if it did, I'd call that pretty smart.

Not attacking you and just want to point this out. If they traded for #1 just to move back, they're the dumbest people to ever run a sports franchise. Draft Day was a movie. Things like that don't happen in real life.

I believe we moved up to have control - not necessarily for a particular guy.  I don't think we have figured that out yet, and still have lots of time to do so.  If Richardson ends up being our favorite after due diligence, then I hope we can trade back a little.

When people say that AR-15 has the most 'upside" I have to pause.  The only reason he is in the conversation is due to that upside, so it is baked into the conversation.  If he reaches his maximum upside, will he be better than Young or Stroud if they reach their maximum upsides?  And to reach his maximum upside, he will have to run the ball--hoping for a 10 year career.  So even in the best case scenarios, he is not a top 2 pick.

How many top NFL QBs were workout warriors at the combine?  Do not be enamored by the impressive bells and whistles if the basic ingredients common to all successful QBs are not first considered.

I agree it's highly unlikely, but if the Texans or Colts offer us something stupid-good in a compensation package, then anything is possible.

It could be that the Panthers want Young, and thought to dangle the top 2 names that they don't want, on the odds that Houston is targeting one.  Fearing that they might lose Stroud is just as potent as Richardson when it comes to motivating a trade.

If they want Young as many predict, the Panthers will hear crickets.

One could hope. And that this kind of articles is part of the smokescreen.

The plan is that with all they've invested in coaches to develop him

To make a big move, Panthers needed the right staff

Red flag for me regarding coaches and GMs, "We can fix him" mentality...

So we can have our choice of QB. In the long run it is about being right, not about the agreed upon value by the majority.

If we wanted Levis or Richardson we could have gotten one or the other at 9. One of them is gonna fall. I have a feeling. 
Both are projects and should not start week one. 
People say to trust Reich and co but if we spend all those resources and Moore and come out with a project player my trust in this coaching staff will be damaged a lot.

I honestly dont care who they pick. We have a staff full of QB guru's and they all know their jobs are on the line. 

They will pick the very person that they think will not only be the best but also build a legacy for them. 

 

...I would not have the same level of fair if Rhule was making the selection.

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      By mav1234 · Posted

      KC has a very good defense this year. It is 5th overall. Yes, still worse than last year, but their offense is considerably worse. Their passing D may be their "weakness" but they still allow fewer than 20 ppg. BY completed several deep passes yesterday, and he was able to threaten downfield in ways he didn't seem capable of before the benching. I'm not necessarily worried about his ability to connect deep anymore. What to me was impressive was that he did all this without a run game. We used the pass to set up what little running success we had. Wild.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Solid and fair assessment.   I will say, one of the big things I noticed yesterday was that he wasn't shy to step up into the pocket in the face of pressure.  He's trusting the IOL.  And they took care of Chris Jones yesterday.  We had clean pockets but also good success rate vs. pressure which just hasn't been the case with Bryce.   If he has more confidence the OL gets it done and he can navigate and step up for throws, that's huge.  It's one of the biggest things that's held him back.  He was previously bailing quickly and just too easily throwing away or making dead plays.     He was finding his 2nd to 3rd reads within structure/without bailing in the pocket.  That was nice to see, as much concern I have with him.  And the overall limitations will always be there. Time to back it up this week against the Bucs.

      Some Thoughts on Our Remaining Games

      By 45catfan · Posted

      Suddenly the Cowgirls look like our best chance for a win remaining. I think the Bucs are playing better than the Falcons of late.  Our lone game versus the dirty birds is in the ATL where we always struggle.  The Cardinals are marginally better than I thought they would be. We are not beating the Eagles, they are starting to roll. I'm saying two at most, next week at home versus the Bucs and the Cowgirls.
