Anthony Richardson “knocked” S2 cognitive test “out of the park”.

Haener has been your guy for a while. I could see him finding some success in the league.

I followed him the past few years because people said he had R1 potential, and he made legit Sunday level throws and produced extremely efficiently.  Funny enough, the frame is the concern, just like the convo we're having re:Bryce, but he did have an injury to show for it.  His arm is also above-average at best, can't dispute that, but I see a guy who can easily translate.  The arm strength combined with frame is what puts him out of R1, but he's got a ton of poise, Fresno State let him call audibles and make a ton of presnap reads, lots to like.  

Browns and Niners have shown the most interest so far.  Won't be a Panther though haha

I don’t think going after AR would be the team chasing Cam. The two don’t really compare, with exception to both of them being big guys. 
 

If AR is knocking tests out that show he’s able to process quickly, and his whiteboard work is coming back exceptionally, then I see why Reich or whoever in the org would want him. I still want Young, but I would have no issue if he was made the pick. I’m fine with BY, Stroud, or AR.

You can see it on his tape really clearly. Guy navigates the pocket at a high end level, processes and makes decisions very quickly.

His issues tend to compound for how maddeningly inconsistent his base is pushing his accuracy all over the place and he can’t seem to change ball speeds throwing short.

Actually give him a shot and watch some film, there’s a clear high end QB in there it’s just gotta take time to develop. I do worry about that short accuracy though because that tends to stick around.

They don’t compare because Newton was in a different tier as a prospect. AR wasn’t even mocked as a first rounder until the media blitz.

I’m just not buying this hype. I watched him all year at Florida. He’s getting the same push Malik Willis got last year and I’m not buying it….no way in any draft in the history of drafts should he be remotely considered for first overall.

When you have Young scoring in the 90s, Levis scoring in the 90s, and AR "knocked it out of the park"--what does that even mean? 

Listen, he could be great, but he hasn't been great yet.  I say the same for Levis.  Young has never been NOT great. 

Discuss.😁

Seriously--nobody knows--but AR is a gamble because game tape does not have bouncing dots or white boards.  The combine does not have QBs throw vs. a rush and coverage.  So when all is said and done, go back to the tape.  AR could be great--and knowing that the Panthers are probably going with Young, it scares me because AR could be better one day--but not today.

Willis wasnt even in the same galaxy as him with things like Pocket Presence and Progressing through reads though. I understand why people want to push the comp but I'm just speaking from things I like in a QB and its also a reason I love Bryce.

Willis was an athlete with a great arm in a bad QB class, I get why there was hype people expect the NFL to draft QBs so assuming a few top guys go in the first and then conforming to that assumption boosted him. His tape showed a guy that wilted under pressure both in terms of pocket movement and throwing ability. Richardson had the best pressure to sack ratio in this draft class.

There are plenty of prospects at the top this year to not need a Richardson narrative, and I just think (No Offense just something ive seen a lot) that its a bit lazy to just say Willis and move on when they are really really different.

I’m not comparing him to Willis as a player. I’m comparing the media push to catapult them into discussions as a top 5 (and in this peculiar case, first overall) pick when it isn’t warranted.

An owner who wants to win now and a coach who’s going to have 3 years to do so isn’t going to take a guy first overall who won’t start until year 2.

I saw him with Steve Mariucci doing a white board chat and he seemed brilliant.  I think he is a career backup with starting potential in a few years.

Yeah thats fair, I guess I just feel like the situation surrounding Wills were a bit different with that class. I'm not trying to make you like him, I just think he shows he can process at a quick rate on tape. I'm very open that I think his accuracy issues are going to be his deciding factor and I understand why some people think it wont be as hard to fix as others, because I think he's got a clear flaw in his base that needs correcting. How accurate does that make him though?

    • Poverty franchise behavior.  If you don't like him as a 3rd rounder then why'd you draft him there?  As others have said, they likely found out some new information and have buyer's remorse. Our FO didn't give DJ Johnson a hard time for being a bad pick.
    • Best I heard its a clause the bungals want to add. It prevents them form paying the full guaranteed amount if triggered. No one knows the details of the clause, but guesses are it relates to off-field stuff. Stewart is in the right here. Before they signed burrow, chase, and Higgins they were the cheapest team in the league bar none. Unlike tepper or jarrah Jones or any other NFL ownership, all Mike brown owns is the beagals. Every other owner has many other money making businesses, not bungals.  I still remember when Brenston Bunker was starting on WFNZ and he told the story about the beagals telling him to pick a used cup form a huge pile, LOLS! They been on hard knocks and I remember Marvin lewis telling the players not to take home Gatorade bottles........* but in that case, I believe some players were taking a back pack and filling it up with drinks. Still you make millions(around 200million) in net profit and Im sure coke gave the team those bottles, still... Its a 32 team billion business, someone has to the cheapest.....Panthers were around the next cheapest team before tepper bought them and he has POURED millions upon millions into the team. He bought a bubble that Richardson never would, so the team had to gather in a old building during the rain. He spent millions on coofus machines that he just gave away like the bubble. Tepper made that AC trailer a thing. I've trashed him about his concerts and taking away end zone seats from fans. But the guy will spend money any way in efforts to better the team, dang I just remembered the deal he gave Rhule- more than Andy Reid at the time.  I know results have not came, but Id 100% take Tepper over Mike brown as a owner.
    • There's no way they're shipping you some uniform you haven't seen lol.  I feel like they'd just refund you and ask if you wanted the new one when it launched. Probably just making the blues the primary, or a new helmet for a new alternate/variation.
