I'm told the Carolina Panthers are working out Paul Richardson/WR/Colorado today...scouting reports: http://www.draftinsider.net/reports/2014/WR/Paul-Richardson 

deep speed guy. 6'0 but is little 180 pounds. produced at a bad school and played high school ball with Marqise Lee and Robert Woods. did have a torn ACL injury in 2012, but played all last year with no injuries. Ricky didnt tweet it.

draft site:

It's too bad nobody pays attention to Colorado football because football fans really missed out on watching one of the nation's truly elite athletes....Richardson is as talented as any receiver in this draft not named Sammy Watkins

...

weaknesses: slender frame not the best for going over the middle or shedding tackles

strengths: He has all-world speed...Richardson’s elite speed makes him a matchup nightmare...He has instant acceleration; he explodes off the line...he shakes press coverage without defensive backs getting a hand on him...he has an explosive and deceptive double move...What makes Richardson's athleticism come to life are his ball skills which are off the charts...he has incredible ball skills; his ability to track and adjust to the ball in the air are elite. He has outstanding leaping ability and wide catch radius; he routinely makes circus catches...He has outstanding body control along the sidelines...and will take the top off a defense

...

summary: it's impossible not to be drawn by this kid's athleticism and the creativity he brings to the game. Coaches and general managers will be drooling over this kid’s potential throughout the draft process and figure to select this speedster out of Colorado some time early on day two of the NFL Draft.

Cool bringing everyone in, but he and Cooks are my least two favorite receivers in this draft.  Height doesn't concern me with either, it's how physical players at the next level are going to have their way with them if they don't adjust their game.  Still glad we are continuing our due dilligence, but Richardson is very meh for me.

    • This is what I mean. I am not some huge BY fan. I honestly don't look at QBs the way a lot of you guys do. Right or wrong, I've always looked at them as just another cog in the machine. Didn't want BY or even a trade up for a QB in 2023. We saw in the Super Bowl how important the rest of the team is on any given Sunday. Now... so PFF, who has no reason to prop up BY, says he's first in 2 stat lines and Panthers "fans" are arguing why it's either wrong or a made up stat just to make BY look good. Even though they have multiple stat lines where he's literally last in. Like 32nd in the NFL. Some he's even lower than 32. Take a step back. Try to objectively self analyze. This is just not sensible.  Same thing I see with other teams' fans and their QBs though. We analyze every single throw on every single play. For every other QB, most here are only using highlights to judge. Makes a difference. We saw Stafford miss throws when they played Carolina - both games. We saw Love throw crap up when they played Carolina. We saw Dak miss throws when they played Carolina - and Pickens was putting on a SHOW. We saw Josh Allen win a game with 163 yards passing against Carolina, but if BY does it he's crap and can't pass for 200 yards. Gents... come on. 
    • None of us think we're contenders this season but no reason we're doomed to 5 or 6 wins either. Dan has to have another 2025- like draft class and at least 2 key free agent signings. We're not Seattle but they don't win without 5 starters from their last 2 draft classes and Darnold and Lawrence in free agency.  Alas,  we'll have to wait one more season for a QB upgrade.   
    • I've got nothing else to say really than: Ayup. Here we are again. Again.  All we can really hope for is progress. If we improve as much again, it'll be good. If we don't, it'll be foretold.
