I'm not the only one who believes this

I wondered if TE might be right for him. Not going to happen at UF.

 

Ridiculous and absurd.

Stop.

 

The only thing AR needs to do is come back next year for one more year of Napier's offense.

 

I agree with @Gatorrick22 . . . AR has less than a season of experience playing SEC football. Plus he's had to learn two different offensive systems. We could see tremendous improvement between now and the end of next year. We've seen improvement since the start of this year (his first season as a starter). I think it's way too early to be saying that he'll never make it as an NFL QB.

 

Dude has a cannon for an arm, he needs to learn how to use it, not change positions.

 

I say give him another year in Napier’s system to prove himself as a pro-style QB. Let the NFL decide whether to convert him or not.

 

I am going to say that this is...premature. There are plenty of athletic college QBs who then become quality TEs in the NFL. He isn't going to transition this year...or likely during any time at UF. He can still be a TE in the NFL.

Have you heard of Mo Alie-Cox? Or, if you want to go a bit further in projection, our own Trey Burton. I believe he still has the record for the most TD passes in a single game. Look it up and verify.

 

I don't know...AR seems a bit too fragile to be tackled all game long.

 

Richardson isn't the Gators biggest problem, Napier has a lot of bigger issues.

 

True, but a damn good QB can hide a LOT of other problems. As I have said before, when we play quality teams, we can win by either AR being transcendent, or we win the turnover battle. Otherwise, the other team has to do enough to lose the game.

In the LSU game, none of it happened. It is what it is.

 

Really, really, really bad take.

This guy has it when he has the supporting cast around him. There's a reason he looked really good last year (and against OU in 2020) and not this year.

We haven't had a QB read progressions the way he does in a long time, and that includes Trask. Give him weapons and confidence that his line will hold and he'll be a great, great QB. The problem right now is that he does not have those things.

 

He is still rated as a mid 1st round pick at QB. These threads are beyond ridiculous

 

You lost me when you said he’s more talented than the most talented TE in college football history.

 

In the LSU game and even on the Tennessee game the offense score enough points to win both games.

 

Okay, fine. A quality QB can hide plenty of problems, but not ALL the problems, if they manifest. Is this better?

 

There is only one reason this article was written.

 

Are you saying AR reads the defense better than Trask? I don't believe that to be the case currently. Maybe he develops to that level and that would be incredible.

 

I think his future is on the OL. He just needs to eat more, get some tips from Dez.

 

Yes, I do believe that. Trask is a very talented guy but he was playing with generationally elite talent to throw to. We saw what happened when they opted out.
