Cmon part 2 of B is never gonna happen

I have no idea what they’re gonna do, but all these QBs seem overhyped based on the desperation. Hell I’m guilty of it myself, honestly Richardson had a few highlight plays last year and then came and put up times any athlete would be proud of but what he showed on the field doesn’t equate to the #4 pick. It’s Trubisky type shit. I just hope they’re not gonna act out of desperation.

Take all 4 of these guys and move them to the other guys teams in college and who would be successful in any situation?

What would Levis numbers have been on Ohio state last season?

Would Richardson, Young , or Stroud even have finished the season playing behind Kentuckys line?

I mean I hadn’t even considered the injuries because after the combine nobody seems to mention them but Richardson missed time in high school and college already due to injuries one including an injury he got from dancing in the team hotel.

The Colts spent over $50 million on the position in 2020.

He is not going to sign a contract that we get easy out of after 2 years, that was my point, more than the per year.

I’m reading more and more that we like Levis. Smokescreen or is it possible that the scouting department knows more than Dam?

No, you take the Rodgers track at that point. Have Lamar for 4 years, cut him year 5, you learn if Richardson is your QBOTF on the fifth year option.

I hope it's a smokescreen, I would honestly think Ballard & Co. would get Wentz flashbacks watching Levis's tape. Given the timing of it it makes sense for it to be a smokescreen.

Every NFL scouting department has a greater knowledge base on every draft class than any person that isn't in an NFL scouting department, a fact I've pointed out on several occasions. No one else gets to interview them or look at their medical records.

I don’t think it’s a smoke screen and while I disagree with the Wentz comparison before the injury he was playing MVP ball and was the 2nd pick in the draft. No need to hide anything at this point Levis seems to be the 4th choice for most teams if a team trades up they’d probably be gambling on Richardson

I would fucking hope we wouldn't do that with the 4th pick, you take Lamarr you are building around him, too big an investment to be a long bridge, that is insane.

They play a similar style, whether you take Lamar or Richardson you're committing to building the same style of offense, so why not take both?
