I don’t know much about Anthony Richardson but if he’s years swat from being a QB, he fits our timeline lol
Agreed. Bryce Young gives me Zach Wilson vibes (he is the benched QB of the NY Jets)... but Young is 4 inches shorter and 20lbs lighter.
Silly ****. Who cares if you have a strong arm, but a peanut brain or no feel for the game. Why even play in college? Just stay in the weight room and work on arm strength since that’s the only thing that should matter to some of these people. It’s a disservice to Josh Allen to act like he’s only good because of his arm talent.
His arm is as strong as Tua's is Brady/Montana didn't have strong arms coming out. This can be improved upon with hard work. Hurts has really improved his arm strength in addition to his accuracy.
I'm not saying I want Caserio to pick Levis, but he played with much lesser talent around him this yr than Young or Stroud did. Atleast last year he had Wandale Robinson to throw too, which is somewhat comparable to the WR's that Young and Stroud have to throw too.
If I was the Bears or Ravens I would pick Richardson in the 3rd rd. So when LJ/Fields got hurt I could plug him in and wouldn't have to change the offense.
Yes and last year he was average. It’s not like he was great even with the additional talent. Will Levis honestly looks like the kind of qb that Nick Caserio would pick. Which is disheartening, but we have to face reality. The Texans have shown no ability to coach up qbs. Will Levis is the same age as Davis Mills already and has multiple mental flaws that need to be corrected. That’s a massive gamble. If you’re taking that sort of gamble, you might as well shoot for the stars and go with Anthony Richardson.
Also something I like to think about is the USC offensive line. Try to imagine each of this years qb prospects behind that line and who would likely have success. Bryce Young for sure, but I’m struggling to think of others besides some of the later round ones with more mobility. Not even putting Richardson in there because he wasn’t even good behind his superior offensive line.
This just depends on which QB you think has the most ability to retain information that's taught to him and the work ethic to improve his game. In short which one is Hurts or Trubiski? For the record I wouldn't draft either one of these guys.
Josh Allen is an outlier. Looks like Tarzan plays like Jane is the perfect description of Will Levis currently. He’s coming into the league at a much older age as well, so if he’s so bright in terms of football acumen why hasn’t any of that shown on the field? Jalen Hurts improved every single year in college and in the nfl. Josh Allen the same. Yet Will Levis is 24 and it hasn’t show up at all. He’s more likely to be Mitch Trubisky than Josh Allen.
This is a baseline requirement, but also can be fools gold. Big difference between regurgitating stuff on a whiteboard with little pressure or time constraints and doing it on the field with less than 3 seconds to make a decision.
Makes sense. Arm talent and size are so incredibly important in the NFL. College results are seriously overrated by fans -- thankfully Caserio is sharper than this. I think Bryce Young is going to fall significantly on the draft board.
Maybe. Not all QBs hit the NFL ready day 1. You cant teach arm talent. You can teach read and recognition skills. Alabama has professionals teaching those kids. Kentucky does not.
2 things: Washington is all projection at this point. In 3 seasons he has caught fewer than 50 balls and caught a whopping 3 TDs. Now, I love him based on where I project him to get. But I am not certain a team is going to drop a FRP on that production. Even a guy with his traits. As for Richardson, he is all projection too. However, he is a QB. So the gamble has higher payoff if he hits. Also, he more than any other player I can think of, is the guy you want that 5th year option on that comes with being selected in the first. This year there is a gamble with every prospect. While I am not in love with the bust potential of Richardson, if he hits that guy has Randall Cunningham potential. I think he needs a full season working on his game but that guy, if he hits, changes a franchise. I have been on Cameron Ward's bandwagon for a while now. Id love him in the 3rd if he comes out. I think you build a good oline and rushing attack and that guy has the talent to be really good. Just not sure Casserio is that much of a gambling man. That is risky.
