Richardson is a project that has a very large likelihood of not being ever completed, so taking him in the top 10 would likely be a massive mistake. Not to mention a player like that would be in desperate need of a good QB coach to help them develop properly. That will be the same with any project QB with a steeper learning curve. 

So the questions to answer are(in order):

1. Is there a surefire franchise QB(or QB's) available?

2. Is there a developmental QB prospect worth taking in the top 10?

3. Is there a top end project QB(or QB's) that you don't consider top 10 draft worthy?

You basically adjust your draft strategy around that if you are a QB desperate team the way that we are. The lower end options also include having to resort to a stop gap FA option.....again.

 

1. Nope. They don't exist.

2. Maybe. I expect draft evaluations of these QBs to be all over the place. A lot of teams will balk at Young's size. Teams will likely hesitate wondering if Stroud would translate to a team that isn't far more talented than the competition. I just don't get the Levis hype at all.

3. Maybe. Richardson has the most intriguing blend of physical talent IMO. It all comes down to his interviews and background investigation.

Easiest way for him to do that is to stop being so involved.

Yep. I've been begging for him to call Kevin Colbert and pay him whatever it takes to come in as a consultant and build him a legit football operation. He doesn't have to stick around. Just come in and make sure sure we get the right people in place.

I would take Richardson after the top ten. The only QB I would take in the top ten is Young. He has the skills, arm, and is already being looked at as a star. Yes, his size is a concern, but the NFL will protect him.

If he can't see over the line like Kyler then he is useless. 

Did you not see Hopkins yelling at Murray?

You can't roll them out every play.

1. is based on what the FO and scouting department think. There are ample instances of people thinking that X QB was a surefire thing.

It's acknowledged that risk is involved.

I think the issues with Richardson are 100% with the tape. His tools are fine.

Young already plays with an NFL size Oline and sees over, around, and through them just fine.

He doesn't play against NFL size defenses. It's not just his line he has to deal with.

The middle of the field has been taken away from Kyler. If he can't see you know Young wont.

Murray is small, but his biggest issue is not his size.  His problem is that he wants to go out there and wing it.  He doesn't have the mental level commitment in the film room to grow as a player.

I bet you wouldn't see a huge difference in OL and DL average height/length in the NFL vs. high level P5 college teams.

      If they lose the last three......

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two.

      Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!

      Inappropriate relationship with a team staffer, followed up with some stalking behavior, and ultimately a felony home invasion charge from a visit at her apartment that culminated in him threatening her life and his as well.
