I mean that's just flat out wrong.  All I'll tell you are people that make decisions in the league think otherwise.  As much as people want to hype up Penix, Richardson, etc. who have a plethora of issues and simply aren't ready, you have a guy here with every physical trait you can ask for that's moldable.  Could he be a Hackenberg? Sure, but it would be extremely shortsided to discount based off of Stanford's play as a team.  

I just shake my head at the Richardson people. I genuinely believe they have never seen him play.

I’ll watch more near draft time, but when I watched 2-3 condensed games of him, I recall him being too immobile. 
 

I don’t care if the guy is a pocket passer or not, but I didn’t see the quick decisive twitch needed to make the first rusher miss. 
 

In a league full of smaller edge rushers built on speed, you need that quick first step to evade the free rusher. You don’t need to be Lamar, but Rodgers/Mahomes/Burrow type mobility is what I would desire in a QB.

    • this will always be his issue. Because of either bad footwork or lack of arm strength he lofts those deeper balls. thats why he doesnt really attack the middle of the field. you cant float those passes there or its a pick. a lot of time those deep passes, wr had to slow down to catch it. you cant have an offense where you dont attack the middle of the field. 
    • Well that’s the thing. Inconsistent. He will be horrible and then an hour later play much better.  In his third season, he finally played well for 4 qtrs a couple of times. You could look at a drive from those games and be a believer.  But keep watching…. you are like, that was a mirage. 
    • That line about ‘above expectation’… the whole thing is so subjective. And unquantifiable due to the nature of it. Endless variables when the grader needs to make almost a split second determination of what the expectation should even be.  They try, I know. I can even give them the benefit of assuming good faith.  But that is so subjective and the name they gave it is pure hype. What about it is big time? Granted some throws are great but a plus one throw n September doesn’t seem to automatically deserve the label big time.     Would look to rename it with less hyperbolic label. That is my biggest objection really.    Big time were the throws on 4th down in the last qtr vs the Rams. Those, all day long. Excellent and for sure under big time pressure. Some other throws too. But that kind of throw seems to be a smaller fraction of what they use to calculate their grade.
