ProFootballFocus Mock Draft has Carolina Picking at 3 - Will Levis

[Snake]

Most on here don't know poo about QBs and it shows. Levi's will have a better career than Young. With that said Detroit isn't picking first and they ain't going QB.

1) Young/Stroud

2) Anderson

3) Not Levis

I'll trade back and take Noah Sewell at this point. Need to cut Shaq next year anyway

"He just needs to improve his accuracy" this is not good 

He's getting some major benefit of the doubt from these old ass media guys. I wonder why..

We have to solve the QB question and former failed 1st round picks are not going to get it done.

 

You keep taking them as long as you have a top 10 until its not the question anymore

[Chris Smitty]

If we pick between 6-10, I hope we try Will Levis. Competition in summer/training camp to know who is the QB starter in week 1 between Levis, PJ and Corral or another qb Veteran who can be a starter like Minshew.

BY, Anderson, Levis, Stroud. I think that’s our order. 
 

I wouldn’t hate taking Anderson then giving up everything next year to get Maye or Williams 

Drake Maye and Caleb Williams are both quite a bit better than Stroud and Young.

If we draft another edge player instead of a true middle backer or a dlineman or guard, I'd view it as a waste. If we go QB and it is anything less than a slam dunk pick, I'll swear off drafting a day one QB ever again. Lol

With this franchise, this isn't only possible, but likely

I am a Florida homer. I said we should have no part in Kyle Trask because I don't believe he has the physical skills to make all of the throws in the NFL. When you watch the Bowl Game against Oklahoma and his starting WRs were gone and Pitts wasn't playing, his lack of velocity became very apparent. He is a big guy with a below average arm.

He went in the second round.

Richardson has the wheels of a high end NFL QB. Richardson has the arm of a high end NFL QB. People forget that Dan Mullen would refuse to play this kid last year when Emory Jones couldn't move the ball. Richardson is still learning the position. And thats the scary part. Can he continue to learn and grow? Do you trust your coaches to help him develop? He is showing those signs in college NOW.

Anthony Richardson first four games:
65 of 121 (53.7%) for 876 yards, 2 passing touchdowns and 5 interceptions. He also tacked on 41 carries for 196 yards and 5 TDs. 4.78 yards per carry. During this time he faced no top defense. Tennessee was the closest and he threw for 450 yards, 2 touchdowns passing, 2 rushing and 1 INT against them at the end of the game. 

Since then he has played five games:
66 of 114 (57.8%) for 963 yards, 7 passing touchdowns to only 2 interceptions. He also tacked on 33 carries for 296 yards and 3 TDs. 8.96 yards per carry. He did this against LSU, Texas A&M and Georgia. 

Hooker / Richardson vs Georgia = 195 yards and 0 TDs and 1 INT vs 271 yards and 1 TD with 0 INT. Richardson is three years younger with significantly worse weapons and protection than Hooker. 

Hooker likely goes in round 2. So Richardson, from a pro-tools standpoint is likely going high end round 2 or back end of round 1. But thats if he continues to play ball with minimal turnovers and show progress as a passer. 

Everyones favorite prospects as QB are talking a hit on their numbers in recent weeks and folks are looking for reasons to tear them down and Richardson is the one showing progress throughout the year. 

I still hope he comes back for one more season but hes going to get a lot of love from scouts and it may force his hand.

I would hope for the best but I'd be nervous as fug. Improving accuracy and consistency is one thing if you're talking about a 20 year old RS sophomore. It's a very different thing when you're talking about a guy who will be a 24 year old rookie.

Agreed. And aside from Josh Allen, how many NFL qb prospects who showed less than stellar accuracy in college improve that aspect of their game at the pro level? To me it seems a short list indeed for such a key part of a prospect's game.

Nice breakdown Varking. I'm not opposed to a project with all the tools. All these guys are projects tho so give me the stud Defender first round.

This was my QB
