I'll admit, Richardson was super interesting as a watch.  Mega talented athlete, played better than his stats, but he's no Cam Newton.  Cam started one year at auburn and was the best player in college that year AND won a National Championship.  Thats part of what made Cam  the #1 pick in 2011.

I just don't see it with AR.  I think he's a great talent, and is going to be very entertaining as a player.  Do I think he's going to turn the Panthers into the "it" team?  Probably not.  I feel like this is smoke from Frank.

It's going to be between Young and Stroud and I'm completely happy with either one.

Well, this'll generate some headlines 😄

 

Richardson does have some elite traits that aren't physical, but not a lot of NFL fans have really watched him. His pocket management and movement would be elite on day one in the NFL. The way he can stand tall and move within a tight pocket is really astonishing. He goes through his reads well and makes good decisions. Statistically, from what I've read, he's much more likely than any of the top four quarterbacks to throw to his second or third read. 

Anyway, I for one would not be mad if he was the pick, from everything I've seen.

There was only one Luke Kuechly. I'm not sure of anyone else in the league that is diagnosing plays to the extent Luke did, and that was because he was a film junkie and watched it daily.

Also that has nothing to do with sensing when someone is around you or getting close to you. 

One of Bryce's best traits is having a great feel for where everyone is on the field at any given time. He avoids pressure within the pocket better than anyone in the class. 

Tom Brady is the GOAT in large part due to his unbelievable pocket awareness/manipulation. Dude moved in the pocket better than anyone pretty much ever. He was hardly ever sacked because of the way he was able to sense pressure and avoid it while in the pocket.

The problem with Bryce and putting his "instincts" on a pedestal is that the NFL is where all the players with physical gifts and "instincts" all go.

That all equals out. 

I just think its going to be a rougher road in the NFL for Young.

Not throwing, weighing, I can't see "instincts" elevating an undersized underweight guy above the physical specimens he chose not to throw with.

This is not accurate.

Sounds fair to me.  I just keep hearing these "he didn't get hurt in college so he won't get hurt in the NFL" posters.  That's not quite how it works...  

He did get hurt in college and if you watch the hit it wasn't a brutal it. 

My concern is his longevity.  If the guy last only 5 years, we are back to ground zero.

If we take Stroud, he may not have all the traits Young has but he'll grow with Reich and last much longer.

I'll be happy with both but Young just worries me he won't last 10-15 years.

Don't forget he had a NJCAA National Championship with Blinn College before Auburn.  Richardson had one season with UF.  

I have always said that Richardson is the dark horse.  His ceiling could be higher than all the QBs in this draft.  

I don't think he's the pick.   We have picked up far too many good free agents and not expect to compete in the NFCS.

What happens if Anthony Richardson is better than both of these guys?

 

Gotta consider all options my man.

      The other draft picks have turned out pretty well. Brooks will too.

      I'm still not touching Hunter He again said the other day that he plans on playing both sides of the ball in the NFL.  If he is allowed to do that, he won't be as good on either side as his potential and he's going to have serious injury issues and have a short career.  If he's not allowed to do it, I think he's going to become a problem when the team isn't winning as he's going to feel him not being used on both sides of the ball is why. He's being coddled in that environment with Deion and I think it's doing a disservice to him to prepare him for life in the NFL where your coach isn't a 2nd father to you, to where you can just walk into his locker room and steal his shoes like Hunter does to Deion.

      Real Mid-Season Development at QB: Bo Nix

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      He’s a tad behind them. Around 15ish of 32 starters in the league. He’s well ahead of a lot of guys. Tua, Bryce, Cousins (present), Rodgers (current), Devito/Jones, Minshew, Russ (current), Watson, Smith, Carr, T Laws deep ball is weak as poo IMO, there’s plenty. And it’s not like everyone is ripping 60+ers. The key component is if you can rip and maintain velocity of the 30-40 yarders which he does super well. Legit every report out there from Brugler to PFF to PFN document him as good/above average arm strength.  Eye test tells me it’s pretty much that as well, slightly above average.
