The visceral hate toward mobile QBs and even mentioning them as potential prospects is kind of weird I must say.

 

The disdain is for mobile QB's who suck at passing....not to mention your asinine attempts to make connections/claims that are completely based on false narratives and your bias.

My bias about what?

It's Richardson's erratic passing that makes people suspect. The guy gets wild with his ball placement. He's either right on the money of WAY off.

People seem to also dislike the other 3 mobile QB prospects which are higher ranked than Richardson - or at least really doubt them as prospects. I understand the critiques on individual prospects for sure. Maybe that’s a misperception on my part though and people do like the other 3 higher ranked prospects that we don’t have as much of a chance at. 
 

But also fierce opposition to trading for a Jordan Love or Trey Lance. 
 

Pretty much all the QBs that come out now and are any good are highly mobile prospects with questionable accuracy and decision making. Mahomes, Josh Allen, Trevor Lawrence even

What the actual fuck are you talking about?

 

Mahomes threw 5k 66% his last year in college

Lawrence was a champion and almost got 70% passing

Only Allen at WYOMING fits your narrative

 

I am not against scrambling QBs. I personally don't like the style, but it's the new NFL. Not everybody can smell what the defense ate for breakfast 3 years ago like Peyton Manning. But fuck that Lamar Jackson shit.

Weird? Why?


Because literally almost all high level college QBs now are mobile QBs with accuracy/decision making concerns, so this whole old school mantra of chasing the unicorn highly accurate pocket passer QB seems like an exercise in futility - wishing upon a star.

Dude please go read some of the cons on the scouting reports for Mahomes, Watson, Allen, Lawrence, Cam Newton. Why do you think Mahomes fell to pick 10 in the draft? Lawrence's whole thing was accuracy issues on intermediate to deep throws and erratic ball placement when under pressure, but having accuracy on short throws.

 

But yes, as a prospect Richardson is very raw that is for certain.

There is a vast difference between accuracy/decision making concerns of say Mahomes, Burrow, Herbert, and Lawrence versus the likes of Love, Lance, Fields, Ridder, or Willis or Richardson....There's also a HUGE variance of the production/experience at the college level and in the case of Love/Lance/Willis in the level of competition they faced.

 

The fact you don't or won't grasp this is why you should take your own advice and stop posting about a topic you continue to make a fool of yourself trying to discuss.

Seriously?  It's pretty obvious...

 

Are you talking about some kind of bias toward mobile QBs or am I missing the point?

 

There aren't any good QBs coming out anymore who aren't mobile with questions on accuracy, ball placement, decision making, etc. That's not really my bias, that's just the reality of the situation.

 

I'm definitely not pretending to be some QB evaluator by any means, I used to pretend to know things about QB play and listen to every Greg Cosell bit about QBs and all that - but I'm not going to take a closed minded approach to QB prospects going forward given the success of a lot of guys I thought would abjectly fail in the NFL.

 

I'll just trust the evaluators and just root for the team to pick a good QB when it is time to do so, and if they pass over a prospect, I'll assume it's for good reason.

Lol don't add Scam Newton to this mix. And IDGAF what reports said. I don't have a problem with "mobile" QBs per se. I'm more concerned about "dual threat"

 

If a guy is a dual threat, he can't be trusted in the NFL. LJ has elite athleticism. He would excel at literally any position on the field except OL/DL.
