    I think the wideout ran the wrong route there.

    LoL. What do they expect. You draft a Qb just because of how far they can throw, and how fast they can run. Stupid.

    Watching some of the Willis/Levis QB battle. Willis has thrown a pick and Levis should have had one picked but Stevenson dropped it. Levis has made some good throws, though, and looks really comfortable.

    Cowherd did his rant on the top 3 QB's taken, gave a history on the last 30 or so, the % of those who did good or above, the mediocre and failures. I think the bottom line for many of these guys is the situation they are put in, obviously some who excelled in college are not actually pro caliber and never will be. It's always going to be a crapshoot, but if you put an inexperienced guy out there, with bonehead coach's, and no surrounding support the odds of them being failures goes up dramatically. The win on a rookie contract is valid, but if do not develop and surround him with the talent necessary most of these guys are not going to make it.

    Although Richardson wasn't good in college. Like I said before....QB maybe the only position that You can be not very good, and still be drafted in the 1st round just because You are athletic can run fast , and throw far.

    Hell just throw a ball 60 plus yards on your knees and get 60 million plus guaranteed from the Raiders. Jamarcus Russell, how I loved the top picks getting paid all that cash up front before they did anything, and no one better to pay out the failure, lmao

    Of course these rookie QBs are going to struggle, they're getting hit a lot more than they did in college, and their receivers won't be wide open.

    Yeah he was bad in college but people think that he is going to be great in the NFL? That pick he threw against the Bills was so bad that if a middle school QB made that type of throw he would be on the bench.
