Richardson >>>>> Levis in terms of pure raw talent.

Richardson is also a couple years younger.

Listen, if you held a gun to my head and made me say yay or nay on Richardson is say nay. I'm just saying in intrigued on a pure talent basis if he checks the boxes in interviews. Levis? I'm all the way out on him. I think he's an NFL backup. He's Kenny Pickett 2.0 and I was saying this time last year I wouldn't even look at Picket prior to the 3rd.

Richardson only works year 1 if we run an offense similar to what the Bears have run the past five weeks. Using his legs to help the team while he develops as a passer. Otherwise, he benefits from going to a team where he can sit a year.

I’m still waiting for him to show Penix being inconsistent this year. I think he is just rambling right now….

Outside of tonight, which still has plenty left, Penix lowest yards total for any game this year is 298. And he has only had two games under 60% completions. He’s been very consistent.

I don’t want anything to do with the project either player presents but when you are desperate…

Most QBs in this class (and most classes) are projects with maybe Young being the exception. That’s why we need a good offensive minded HC to develop whoever we draft.

I like a quote from Bill Parcels…QBs and guys that get the QBs are premium.

But college players that get TDs is a good bet

19 TDS and 10 INTs = Levis

23 TDS and 8 INTs = Richardson 

But if TDS with no context is what matter Bo Nix has 38 total before this game tonight.

Oh, we're desperate. And if we're desperate I'd MUCH rather roll the dice on Richardson than Levis.

Richardson is younger, they didn't rush him today but he's better at that, his big time throws looks way better than any "highlight" I've seen of Levis throwing further than 10 yards. Richardson is obviously the best player at Florida, Levis is just kinda the QB game managing for Kentucky. No sense of urgency for whatever reason on that offense, it seems like they let him game manage and when he does let it loose he gets picked off

Do the numbers…interesting on Nix to be honest…might want to consider him

I agree with this. Hell, the odds of Josh Allen becoming Josh Allen was astronomical.

Rookie Josh Allen was terrible, too. Hell, it wasn’t until year 3 in the NFL he went over 60% completions. But it’s the formula you want to follow if you are drafting a Richardson or even a Levis. Get the guy and then you MUST surround him with talent. Go after guys via trades and the draft on offense to protect him and give him targets to throw to. 

Don’t do what we did for Cam and draft him and then sort of kind of forget to protect him.

    • WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.
    • Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.   
    • In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
