Both QBs are Christians and really loud about it
Maybe Levis is a clone. Ever watch the Mandilorian?

If the pick is Richardson, I will be shocked. The reason being is that two of Irsay's most trusted advisors would disagree.

Richardson literally checks none of the boxes of the Bill Polian prerequisites in drafting 1st round QB.

If Levis does indeed have the PM endorsement, then I can't just ignore that. It may not hold as much weight as Polian's, but if Peyton thinks that Levis has the work ethic that it takes to be a championship NFL QB, then I'm taking that into consideration.

I'm not leaning on PM, for talent evaluation, just desire, work ethic and the love of football.

As stated by so many on this board, I am so glad you are not the Colt's GM. That would be the only thing that would make me stop being a Colts fan.

Geez!!!!!!
Not only that but it looks like Levis has dirty blonde hair, which makes him not a ginger.

As for his mechanics: the fact that he's been working with Jim Palmer and improved between the combine and his pro day is encouraging and very unWentz.

He's not my preferred pick for us, and maybe not even my 2nd. But if we end up with him I don't think he's the doomsday scenario that Dam and Gregg Doyel think he is.

Levis is blonde. I also think he is smarter than Wentz and works harder than Wentz. I don't think the hero ball is ingrained in him like it was Wentz. Wentz had been playing hero ball since he started playing. He was always the best athlete on the field and had to do everything. It's how he learned to play.

Levis didn't do that in 2021, I think he had to do it more in 2022 because they had no one else on that team.

Really? What would be an acceptable tat for you? As long as it's not offensive who gives a shit. The dude has every right to express himself.

couldn't care less about his religion or tat. some people are turned off by outspoken religious people. sometimes outspoken religious people are annoying cunts.

Wasn't he also injured for a lot of '22? I'm sure limited his mobility and ability to run and extend plays.

Yes, and there is another forum on here for that.

I realize the differences in the game, but some of Polian's edicts still run true. As an example, Lamar Jackson ha 2 years more experience than Richardson and out performed him in almost every metric, yet he was still only picked with last pick of the 1st round.

Experience and production always outweigh potential.

Long time to wait before putting them on the clock.
