If we get Richardson it is essentially telling the fanbase to check out for the next 1 to 2 seasons. 
I think the FO thinks we are close enough to be ready to be a playoff team next season even with a rookie QB. 
No way they get Richardson and expect the fanbase and Tepper to just patiently wait till he is ready. Which may be never. 
If we were still at 9 or if we had an incumbent starter who is aging out and we needed to find his long term replacement I would be okay with Richardson. 
But not at #1 and not with Dalton as a potential starter. 
We need a rookie with potential to start day one.

Especially after bringing in the guys we did on offense. Why waste them?

Right now, my expectations basically breakdown:

50% Young

45% Stroud

5% Richardson

Anyone else would be absolutely shocking.

Mine are

80% Young

15% Richardson

5% Stroud 

 

It’s hard to put a percentage number on the power of reason #2

This isnt a awful idea. The huddle will hate it because its a gamble. Boom or bust.l.. No middle ground.But your talking about a guy with unseen talent in a class where there is no sure fire number 1 guy. There are safe and decent prospects but no cant miss. At Young and Strouds best thats what they are.... AT ARs best hes a generational talent. 

I almost pie'd this.

To me if Richardson anywhere near pans out he's a superstar. That said the more I watch Stroud (and specifically his trajectory) the more I think he could easily be a perennial top 10 QB in the NFL.

I think Young will bust - but I'd be happy to be proven wrong.

You deserve your right to your opinion, and unlike some Huddlers, you provide your reasons for your thinking.  I am sorry you were called an idiot for thinking this--our moderators should not tolerate that, according to what they have said in the past.

Having said that, I think this is a stretch.

I really like this reply

Josh Norris has said a few times he regrets choosing to do the Purdy breakdown with Mccown over the Richardson video because he would have gotten so many clicks.

If it’s Richardson at least we are swinging for the fences, I’ll be sad it’s not Bryce because the more I watch I see Greatness, but Richardson would be fun in the unlikely circumstance we do go that way.

Why waste what? We've simply upgraded our WR and TE rooms to lower-mid league standard.

It had to be done regardless of who we drafted to play QB.

      Does anyone actually think Bryce will actually be good?

      By Waldo · Posted

      Every year it looks like someone does a sales pitch to Tepper and that's what he goes with. It's also why it has been a horror show on the outcome side.  The hard thing about Bryce is he is likable so people not only like him but feel like they need to defend the good guy. If he was a jerk like Wilson was on the Jets then they could just have signed a QB off the heap to try and Baker into the playoff this year while being justified but not with Bryce. I can't believe people let McG scam them. I guess some people have money to burn and like to be sold regardless of reality.

      Fun game last night.  Defense on both sides really was good.

      alright im going to post seriously here for a second what you are seeing with bryce young is the confluence of some well understood cognitive phenomenon: mistaking what you want to happen for what is happening and working backwards from there (call this working backwards from a conclusion/cognitive dissonance, im sure im mixing up the terms a little here), and getting scammed and defending the scammer (call this the gregor macgregor affect i don't know there's probably a term somewhere, google is unusable.) People who care a lot about the Panthers want them to have a good player at the most important position in the game, and the Panthers gave up a ton to be in position to take one, and they took one, so that must be the good player. There is obviously an overload of available information any lay person can find that they can use to convince themselves that what they wanted was happening. to the lay person, it was aggressively obvious right away that it wasn't going to work out. it was clear halfway through the first quarter of the atlanta game he did not belong in the nfl. a bird's eye view of the season shows at best the second worst season ever. But people who really wanted something to be true cannot accept this, and instead pick apart details or blame things or wishcast into the future or move goalposts to defend it because they cannot accept that what they wanted and what they believed they had is actually....not there. People do this all the time. I've got a patient right now in late stage frontotemporal dementia and her POA just will not listen to me or hear what I'm saying because he was told I'm an amazing provider with inpatient neuro experience and when I look at him and say "you need to understand expectations" or "she has no quality of life" he just refuses to understand what I'm saying. The second is this weird trait we have where if we get scammed, some people will defend the scammer. if you get bored read up on gregor macgregor and the mosquito coast, but basically he was charging people to join an expedition to settle this absolutely poo stretch of land in south america. all these people either died or had to be rescued, but when they returned to their home towns they refused to believe they'd been scammed, blamed other things, or even blamed themselves. This guy was CLEARLY a scam artist but they could not accept they, smart rational people etc had been scammed. This is some weird vestigial evolutionary trait that helped a group of monkeys work together to take the watering hole and no of course there's no modern day political equivalent why you imply such a thing. Panthers' fans were scammed with Bryce Young. Tepper (david or nicole im not sure which) were scammed with him. Obviously it's more complex than one scottish dude drunkenly walking into a bar in Buenos Aires but it's a similar setup. And yes the stakes are lower than moving to the other side of south america but a scam is a scam is a scam. It is very difficult for people to admit that they, ostensibly smart, rational, logical people would believe and buy in to something so obviously rotten so the blame has to go somewhere else. Every problem with Bryce has an cause external to him, and all problems will be solved by /random thing that has happened the specifics don't really matter. Currently it's a guy who no other team interviewed for the HC position. if you read this and your first instinct is that i'm attacking you, you need to take a deep breath and reevaluate some things. this is an opportunity for personal growth and you should take it. surely some people will counter with "well it's just football it's not that serious and why does it hurt to be excited for something?" This is what's called a "though terminating cliche" and is just a cutesy little phrase meant to stop the conversation and help the person using it avoid defending their terrible ideas. and to the person saying "lol wow you typed all this up u mad," <puts poo posting hat back> don't judge what i do by your own limitations. I'm much higher functioning than you and this was neither time or energy consuming for me. This is a casual thought. I am learning not to hold people to the same standards I hold myself, so I don't blame you for reacting defensively out of a sense of wonder and inferiority.
