Dude has some GREAT pocket awareness, feels pressure well and moves around to avoid defenders while keeping his eyes downfield. He even steps up in the pocket instead of bailing backwards.

Dude has a canon arm too. Like flick of the wrist and ball goes 50 yards. 

He has all the potential in the world to be a great QB, but would we have the staff to develop him?

He can't hit the broadside of a barn

 

What good is a cannon if you miss?

If we are going to go, might as well go hard.  Roll the dice with this kid and see what happens.   fug it, the way I see it, its either we win the lottery or a total reset in 3 years.

At this point I think he is a realistic option for us as I think we will be out of Young and Stroud range. The argument for him over Levis is they are both projects but Richardson potential is through the fuging roof

And age. Also Richardson was the best player on the team, his WR's let him down a lot. Levis looked like a bad QB on a bad team this year.

Hell, if he interviews well it wouldn't be surprising to see him go top 10.

Maybe. I've think he's be a top 15 guy and just out of the top 10 even if he interviews extremely well. Though this could change if Stroud looks really bad in the playoffs against Georgia and teams look elsewhere.

It's going to depend on our next coach.

The athletic talent is tantalizing.  Dude has all of the tools.  Were he struggles related to a lack of talent and execution on the team or how much of that was on his own?

I actually made an effort to watch some Florida ball this year for him specifically.  I have no idea =P  Like you can see the tools.  Man, he's got some gifts!  But I saw a bunch of times when he's throwing layups where he missed a dude by 10 feet.  How much of that is on him versus the play or his teammate?

That's what makes picking a QB hard.  If we drafted him, I'd be excited for him and us.  But again, I have no idea how it's going to go for him in the run up to the draft.  Like most QBs, he'll be pushed up.

His bust factor is absolutely astronomical. 

It will be interesting to see this play out.

But his hit may be the adverse.  Could be a josh allen nfc clone if done correctly.  Odds are squarely against that but fug it, lets have some fun.   At the baseline, the absolute baseline, he would put fannies in seats and at least be interesting for a short period.   I think once people start watching his highlights and see just how big and fast he is along with probably a top 3 arm in the nfl then folks are going to start to take notice

    • Give me Anthony Hill Jr or give me death
    • We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that
    • There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.
