He won't be on the board in the 3rd round. He might not be on the board past the 3rd pick. I'm not saying he won't be a bust, but we've all seen this movie before with freak athletes and NFL GMs. A guy who showed a little more physical gifts than earlier thought was Stetson Bennett. Ran like a 4.67 which was better than expected and arm strength was a notch better than advertised. He's accurate as hell. But the dude is SMALL. Bennett helped himself but what that means from a draft selection perspective I have zero idea. It might not move his draft needle much. Everything is pretty hyperbolic right now.https://www.dawgnation.com/football/nfl-dawgs/stetson-bennett-nfl-combine-will-levis-georgia-football/TNUOCRUXBFDG7CKODBMX2NBQTY/
Are we talking about the same player? Anthony Richardson, QB Florida
I watched him play several games here in Florida and he is not accurate as you say. Who can't throw an accurate pass once in a while when he has time? Even I can throw accurate 5 out 10 with time. When the pressure is on he looks worse than Kirk Cousins, believe it or not.

Again, not saying he's going to make a great pro. But he might. And that's what a few NFL GMs will jump on. Happens every year.
I think a lot of evaluating him is figuring out if you think
he’s mentally the type of guy who’s going to be able to build his game
correctly, and whether you have the right guys to mold a young QB
correctly. Like somehow he has to
transform from raw and athletic, to a guy who’s a competent NFL qb, because it’s
just not enough to be raw and athletic.
But clearly, being athletic is a enough of a difference maker that if
the guy has the right mindset to learn and adapt quickly, and you are setup for
facilitating that growth, it’s well worth the risk. If the guys a lazy turd, he’s probably not going
to amount to anything though.
