I’m a gator fan and I have watched him live… he is not a qb.. but a very good athlete… he needs revamped arm mechanics, think poor man’s cam (but like last year cam)… he ain’t it maybe in the 5th sure … give up anything higher then a 3rd it will be a waste

This is such an odd take for a few reasons. 

1. Anyone can say they are a Gator fan and watched him live. It’s like watching clips of YouTube and then going to a forum and saying you were “studying the tape”. 

2. You think he has the same arm mechanics as Cam Newton? If this is accurate to you then you either don’t watch Cam Newton or you don’t watch Anthony Richardson. They don’t have the same arm mechanics. 

3. You say you would take a chance on him “maybe in the 5th” but giving up anything HIGHER than a third would be a waste. So you would take a chance on him in the third and the fourth as well? You are either willing to draft a kid or you aren’t. So you agree you would take him, you would just prefer we steal him in the mid to late rounds vs where he is actually going to go, which is in the first or second round.

If this dude shows the ability to process defenses and interviews well how the hell could you not draft that?   He barely threw that thing. 

Right??

Admittedly it's highlights but many of his highlights are just effortless throws across the field, deep down field, etc.

Interviews with him will be soo important, and while he's not my #1, I'd be stoked if we drafted him and got a promising offense oriented HC...

I really, really want to fall in love with Richardson as "our guy". I haven't watched a ton of him, but do feel that his game vs. FSU is who you're getting. 

Flashes of eye-popping ability, but mostly inconsistent play that makes you wanting more of the flashes. Odds are he blows away the combine and pro day, has solid interviews and goes top-12.

    • Valid, and throw in that what Wilson and Smith did is not out of the ordinary for a WCO 
    • Darnold was pretty bad until last year.  He implodes mentally, its just what he does.  To this day I dont have a problem with letting him walk.   Baker is a bit different.  He was an ass in Cleveland and they couldnt deal with his poo, but he at least had talent and went to the playoffs.  So you know he could play at least.  There were different stories coming out from the time he got here, competing with Sam and then the practice team release fiasco.  Both good and bad.  Some say he was a good teammate others say he bitched behind the scenes.   From what it appears his wife has worked with him and he calmed down and his play has reflected that.  Tampa loves him.  So if we were going to keep one it probably should have been him but man he was really bad for us.  But to his defense he didnt get the first team reps until late into camp.     In obvious hindsight we should have signed Baker cheap, drafted a dude and let the cards play out, but you know the rest of the story and now we are going to have to watch bryce for 2 more years 
    • Again his one year calling plays happened to be Baker's lowest YPA not counting his split year hear.  That tells me he was less aggressive with a QB who likes to be aggressive.  We have that and almost 2 full years of Bryce Ball here in Carolina.  He will take some deeps shots as most offenses have to in order to keep the defense honest.  Quick passes and hopeful YAC.  I'll give you one guess to which year Rachaad White had the most receptions as TB's RB?  Remember the first thing he wanted to do here is focus on how quickly he wanted to get the ball out.  That's part of his recipe to help QBs and help his OL.  Run the ball, quick passes to hopefully players in space, sprinkle in a little PA.   So yeah you can look at some coaches he learned under and speculate, but I am telling you what he literally is doing and has done as a play caller.  Offenses that were and are 100% his baby.
