Anthony Richardson Combine Physical Feats

Recommended Posts

I love who is as a growing in technique football ball player 

I like who he is as a person 

he grew up old.  He had to do so.  

he has worked hard for everything he has 

he loves the game.    He loves to compete   He wants to get better

the nfl is a tough business.  Compared to what he grew up having to do, it will be a cake walk 

…and that smile…lights up a room ..that smile and his ability sells tickets 

I hope they draft him

From what I saw watching one of the highlight videos someone posted here, did not look like AR ever set his feet when he threw. Some good coaching and a team around him, and he may be a very good QB (imagine if Cam had had those things).   He is certainly an intriguing prospect.

 

It would not break my heart if we drafted Anthony Richardson, even if we would have to trade all the way up to # 6 on draft day.

Richardson seems to be gifted in ways that other NFL QB prospects only dream about and could turn out to be solid gold to the NFL team that drafts him.

Type in "anthony richardson vs" into Google or YouTube and watch his game cutups. He can, but he has to learn to be consistent with his mechanics.

If the Panthers built a super star coaching staff made for quarterback development, why not take a homerun swing?

This is my take. For as much as I hear about this stellar staff, why not take a swing for a guy who buy all accounts just needs some good coaching? I’m all in. But I don’t care if it’s a miss because I been a Panthers fan a long time and disappointment is par for the course so why not go for it.

When they showed the graphic of the most athletic QBs, it was not an impressive list of NFL QBs.  We have to be very careful of falling in love with these "workout warriors," but I must admit, I would be elated if we drafted him--but I like the Stroud game and he is still my preference.

The problem with QBs that are amazing athletes in terms of size, speed, athleticism, etc is that they have always been so--able to use their legs to bail out the QB when going through the progressions.  This can cause the QB's brain to go into escape mode, knowing that he has the ability to turn a potential sack into a big gain--been doing it his entire life--much like Cam.  But when the brain starts thinking run, the feet go into run mode, and then the eyes see an open receiver, and the arm goes into throw mode when the feet are in run mode--leaving the feet in bad position to be throwing a football accurately.  So there is some compromise (usually with accuracy) with running QBs.  Is that the case with AR?  Probably, but I have not seen enough of his tape when throwing incomplete passes to watch his feet---all I have seen are the highlight reels.  Yes, he was impressive at the combine, but there were some hints of accuracy issues when he was not under pressure at all, in tee shirts and shorts.  Like Cam, Lamar Jackson, and others with less success, you sacrifice when you draft a running QB--career lengths are closer to a running back than a traditional QB, accuracy, and these QBs play with injury a lot.  Just my sobering analysis.

Comparing Richardson to Cam isn't really a thing you can do in college.  Cam took a team that had 1 guy that played for more than 5 years in the NFL besides him ( and he was a D lineman) and won a national championship and the Heisman.  In the SEC and never lost a game.

Richardson took a team with about the same talent level, maybe a little more, and went 6-6.  The size, speed, arm strength and everything else can't make up for that.

I was at the Arkansas vs. Auburn game and the final score was like 60 - 40.  I think Auburn could have scored 100 if they did not think they had the game won like 3 times before the end.  That was Cam.  Right now that is not Anthony Richardson.

    • Thin sliced roast beef, provolone, and roasted bell peppers on a toasted sub roll.  At least one thing is going right today. I don't trust anyone who's never put Bugles on their fingertips to make witch fingers.
    • But yeh,  Bryce is the only problem on this sorry excuse of a team. You could put Tom Brady on this team and we would still suck . Worst part is Tepper and his various band of clowns have been trying to build a competitive team for 7 freaking years and are no closer now than when it all started. 
    • Regardless of the trade and where he was picked, Bryce actively created deception. He wore a hoodie to the combine and was 15 lbs heavier because he packed on water weight because he didnt weigh near 200 lbs. He didn't participate in drills in a wide open 4 way, really 3, QB bid. Then there was all this hype over the S2 test that he had been practicing that we've never heard about in the draft process since. Does anyone think it was an accident Stroud's score on the S2 was released? Stroud said forget the score, watch his tape. Wonder why. There was a whole bunch of shady poo going on surrounding Bryce pre draft, and I for one, find it all a little too convenient.  Just my opinion, but he was a used car salesman that used some armor all and a wash n wax and maybe a set of white walls then schmoozed his way at dinner with Dave and Nicole and sold them that he was a super savant.  There was a whole lot of BS swirling around the BY hype train and he was a full fledged participant. Frank didn't want Bryce, he wanted Stroud. A new head coach does not pick a QB he has to go design a brand new offense around unless that guy is a generationaltalent, which Bryce was most definitely not. He picks the guy that best fits what he does and that was Stroud. This was Dave and Nicole's pick and they fuged this team like they've done over and over again since they've been here. They fell for use car salesman Rhule, then used car salesman Bryce and company. And the fans got stuck with the 4 years of payments on a car less reliable than Al Bundy's Dodge.
