But we can't predict the future. And with this D, and with Berry and Moeaki and Charles returning, sorry, we still won't be in a position to draft first overall next year even WITH Matt Cassel starting.

This team is far too talented to only win 1-2 games next season.
Again, you've missed the point.

I don't really CARE what happens next season. It's a lost season, we don't have a QB. If we win 1 game or 8, great, I don't care.

What I do care about is the long-term chances for success.

Drafting Richardson makes next year look more like an 8-win year than a 2-year win for sure.

It also makes the next FIVE years look more like 8-win years than Super Bowl years.

I don't know how else to explain it so that it's clear - we don't have a QB and we're not going to get one this year. However, we need to keep looking.

Drafting a player like Richardson all but guarantees they QUIT looking. We'll spend his entire career looking for the next Cassel or Orton and trying to get by, just the like the Vikings.
