re: If Anthony Richardson plummets to #29, then do you want the Saints to take him?

How many times does it have to be explained that the age thing is an upside inhibitor, not a “we’ll have him for less time because he’s older” inhibitor.
Has everything to do with the fact they didn’t start doing well until they were older than normal draft-age prospects.

Right.
And what is wrong with that?
You have a guy who might not have huge upside that is a known quantity.
Or you take a guy like richardson with a top 10 pick who might never figure defenses out.
It's just a thought. I'm not saying you take a shot on every 25 year old qb.
Like, i wouldn't draft a stetson bennett, but i would draft hendon hooker.

Burrow is exactly 1 year and 1 month younger than hooker.

If he was good enough to play pro football at a high level he'd have broken out sooner at the college level of football instead of just coming into his own as a 23 and 24 year old playing against 18-21 year olds.
And then you double up with the Burrow and Hooker age difference thing. Lol. They're one year and one month apart but Burrow just got done his third season in the league, broke out as a 21 year old at the end of the 2018 season, and set the world on fire as a 22 year old for the better part of 2019. Meanwhile, Hendon Hooker broke out at 23.5 and will be 25 at the time of the draft. Nothing about them is the same.

No need to worry about Richardson now
