Richardson is 24, gets mauled in the run game, and was rumored to have an attitude problem.

Floyd is 20, is very good against the run with upside in the pass-rush, and is a great kid.

This... is a no-brainer. Floyd>>>> Richardson.

Richardson is and has been more productive than Floyd.

And Floyd is nowhere near as good against the run as a lot of people are saying. At least based on everything I've seen (all the YouTube videos I've been able to find with him in them). Against the run they're equal, against the pass Richardson is way better and Richardson's motor blows Floyd's out of the water. And Richardson is more versatile. I'd take Richardson over Floyd too.

Floyd is younger and has more upside.

If going based off of production then Kawann Short would be in the mix to be taken top 10. He isnt.

I see the younger argument but the more upside is a little hard to determine.

They are about the same other then age.

Richardsons "production" is because he's getting pushed so far down the field and makes tackles on guys 10 yards past the LOS with his great speed. Can't hold the point at all, and richardsons pass rush is overrated. I see a better inside rush from Floyd

Yes that what happens.

Cyprien > Vaccaro

I saw a tweet from an NFL Network guy last week that said there are only three positions in this draft that have clear leaders that can't be disputed. TE, CB, and Safety. Just found that interesting that Vaccaro is getting that much love when we've all seen the missed tackles.

      So... what metrics for production do you believe display these issues/limitations best? Are we only using total passing yards, height, and weight thresholds? If so, then what are those thresholds?

      I mean as far as his size goes it's all over his tape bouncing up and down on his toes in and around the pocket trying to see the field and defenses know this as well as we do but if folks here want to live in never never land and pretend it's not a thing that's their prerogative. Even our head coach has made it a key focal point to get his footwork under control. But it's still something Bryce is going to be tested on early and often no matter how many keystrokes anyone here commits to the narrative it isn't an issue.

      It speaks volumes that when asked to define a clear performance threshold the responses instead fixate on Bryce's size. It reinforces what’s been clear for a while now... that for some, it has never been nor will it ever be about production. Any struggles will always be chalked up to his frame, and any strong play will be downplayed or disqualified via highly mobile goalposts.
