Comparing AR to cam is unfair. Cam was a total freak show and won a national championship with a team that only had like 2 or 3 other drafted players if I remember correctly. Cam was that team. Looked like he was playing children at times. AR has shown Cam type flashes but he was nowhere near what cam was coming out. That said I’d take him at 9 or move up a bit if we think another team is gonna grab him ahead of us. He has elite tools and this is a great staff to develop him. If he busts he busts. These are the type of shots we need to take.

I think people are forgetting how incredible cam was at auburn. I don’t think there will ever be another cam. 

I haven't. Cam was a one man wrecking crew. They were a borderline top 25 team preseason with hardly any other NFL talent outside of Cam. Their head coach is now coordinating a terrible D at UNC. Their OC who was being hyped as a genius flamed out as a head coach at Auburn and is currently at the powerhouse Central Florida.

That poo was ALL Cam.

Same here. I watched that out of curiosity because I was a Luck guy and had been for a good while. I was underwhelmed the first half, but the second half and hearing how he took charge during halftime and got the team fired up, I was hooked.

I will say that what I have seen from AR and what he's capable of that I get a lot of the same vibe I had from watching Cam. He's got legit superhero potential. You find a way to harness and guide it and you've got yourself one of the most exciting studs the league has seen in a while.

“I can definitely get better at delivering the ball and helping my guys out," Richardson said. "But I can’t also catch every pass. If I could, I would definitely. It’s just helping guys out and helping guys help me."

Sounds like he spent a year as the starting QB at Florida and spoke honestly.

    • I was watching a YouTube and it was said that scout and GM insider types were saying the NIL had killed rounds 4-7. I don’t know that I buy it, seems like it might for a year or maybe two but then those guys have to move on.  NCAA is apparently about to give 5 years of eligibility. It is gonna skew those entrants older maybe.   
    • Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that. 
    • I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
