REPORT: Anthony Richardson was Panthers QB #2

[The Lobo]

Orlovsky has been saying this too. Matter of fact when we traded up he said it was for AR or Young.

Sign me up for a billion years worth of lols and lmaos if Stroud reaches 9

I'd prefer that vs him landing at 8 in Atlanta. He has talent, not sure why he'd fall and honestly don't think he will.

I think Stroud falls out of the Top 10. That S2 test is more regarded than people think.

Me too. If i'm an agent, i want my guy to take that S2 in private, and if he scores poorly, i'm not having him take it for the NFL.

Top 5 becoming clear now:

1) Panthers -Bryce 

2) Texans -Levis 

3) Titans trade up with Cardinals - Stroud 

4) Colts -Will Anderson 

5) Seahawks -Richardson 

That would be wild. I, for 1, don't want to see AR in ATL twice a year. If he gets good, he'll be really good.

They are complete polar opposites in just about every way. I guess with an all star staff like we have, they surely had confidence they could coach Richardson up but he still needs that coaching, where as Bryce is plug and play right now. 

I can't wait to see what happens with Stroud too. He has undeniable talent that shows up on game days.

Levis just seems so weird to me with his whole eating an unpeeled banana schtick and mayo in the coffee. Admittedly I invested much less time in watching his games but he did nothing that led me to believe he would be worthy of the time once we got the number 1 pick.

Lastly I hope Hendon Hooker lands in a good situation too and I wouldn't even be upset if he somehow ended up with us.

Originally, I was all about staying at 9, taking a WR, and then hoping Hooker fell to us in the 2nd round.

Looks like he'll go somewhere in the first round though, if you can look past his knee and age, I think he's a great prospect, and his age concerns me more than the knee, ACL's aren't as big of a deal these days, but being 4 years older than most rookies is a lot for a QB.

How much higher can he go? He’s always been mocked in the top 5, there’s been a few mocks where he was 19, but most have him gone way before then

Seattle makes perfect sense. He needs time to develop. Geno so far is a one year wonder. 2 very good WRs and Pete Carroll. Good landing spot

Carroll even admitted during the process that he hates picking this high (even though it's because of a trade).  And if you're this high, you go for the moonshot.  They've got 20, 37, 52, 83.  Plenty of picks to build a team.  If you're a playoff team sitting at 5, with an emerging opening for a QB, and you can essentially redshirt the guy, you go for it.  

Perfect situation for both team & player.

A team can ask a prospect to take the test as part of their evaluation process.  If the prospect choses not to then I guess the team can use that decision as part of the evaluation.

I agree with everything, but I would be really tempted if he's there at 39 or later.

My final prediction 

1 Panthers Bryce

2 Texans Will Anderson

3 Seahawks trade up from 5 to 3 for AR-15 

4 Colts Levis

5 Cardinals Witherspoon

Yeah I agree with others, AR to Seattle just makes too much sense.  You have at least a couple years out of Geno who is looking good in that system and Richardson can take some time to get ready.

CJ should have refused.  But did he know in advance he would tank the test? Probably not.
