They keep talking about playing a guy when he is ready....i dont think you can count Richardson out.

It would be a weird decision to play a former top 10 pick primarily as a nickel. I hope to see him used basically as he has been since we drafted him.

Why though? WR1 play out of slot more than ever in this league.... they are the motion receivers. Modern NFL has WR1 moving around and not sitting on the boundary like they used to. You want your best corner to be able to play the nickel position bc its not a one direction cut route like the boundary line. 

It's not like Horn is going to be on the bench when we are running base. We are just moving horn inside in nickel package.

Well he was also there when the OL went to dogshit around that same QB that led to him leaving town so hopefully learned a lesson if Bryce becomes the #1 pick.

It would take Richardson 2 years to hopefully meet the minimum requirements Fitterer described in a QB.

interesting...he says don't read anything into this discussion going on that Reich only works with big QBs.

Nickel IS the base package in the modern NFL. You're in nickel probably at least 75% of the time.

He is a professional GM. He isn’t going to give anything away in a press conference on accident.

I personally like Stroud slightly more than Young, but it sure seems like they are leaning Young but certainly forcing themselves to make a decision sooner than they have to. 
 

The statement of wanting see  2-3 years  or 1000 plays on tape to evaluate pretty much confirms it won’t be Richardson. I’m starting to feel stronger and stronger after, that Young and Stroud will be the only 2 QB’s taken top 10.
