Anthony Richardson draft stock

This is that media hype that happens every year that im not sure I believe.   He tested great, everyone knew he would.  Im not sure why that would jump him up a lot.  Most nfl teams weigh tape a lot higher than verticals and broad jumps.   Did he help himself?   Sure, I'm just not as sure if its as drastic as everyone getting caught up in the track numbers.  In the throwing drills you could clearly see he needs some work.  Call me crazy but i think a qbs throwing and game tape is a lot more important than their vertical in tights.

AR is built like Derek Henry.  He is a unicorn QB if he can be developed correctly. Wouldn't shock me if he ends up going #1 overall based on his physical traits.

Derek Henry was a running back.  My qb being built like a running back is the least of my concerns.

Richardson was +2200 to be the first QB selected just a couple of weeks ago. Now at +350 I have a cashout option 

I like Stroud at +400 now

I have to believe that’s a Vegas trap. Especially with it being early March. They are taking on the slew of bets coming in from his combine performance. It will all balance out come mid April.

So, just to remind everyone many people were putting a top 10 grade on Malik Willis last year. don’t get too caught up in the physical attributes hype.

The main point of the combine is to look for red flags, or if you’re 50/50 split on someone too find some sort of deciding factor to pick one over another. That’s it. 

when it comes to QB’s you’re picking them based on 1. Potential 2. Risk. And of their risk of what kind of risk is it?

Only player Richardson has jumped in my opinion is Levis and that’s only because of his super weird milk phobia. That’s a red flag on Levis’s part not due to anything Richardson has done.

my Top 3 QB’s

1. Stround - high potential and lowest risk (has NFL size and skills)

2. Young - Highest potential and moderate risk due to size

3. Hendon Hooker - his main negative are the ACL(which he had a good update at the combine) and his Age.

After that it’s a crap shoot honestly.

I mean, was anyone not expecting this kid to light it up yesterday? That kind of stuff is made for athletes like him. He’s never been questioned as an athlete. He’s been questioned if he can be more accurate in the NFL than he was in college. Not a lot of kids can do that. 

Josh Allen is the only 1 that did it.  His accuracy remains a major concern

That’s why in that regard he reminds me of Josh Allen who was also criticized for not being accurate in college.

I think the comparisons are valid. My hesitation with AR is that Josh is a unicorn in the fact that he got much better in the NFL. That typically does not happen to QBs. At least in terms of accuracy.

    • It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.   
    • Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
