I'm cautious by nature, so as solid as he's looked this season, I still hold off concluding that he was in fact worth trading for. Especially because AR showed qualities I didn't think he'd developed already. I don't just hope, but legitimately think, that AR can become something scary based off the little we saw of him.
Not that I don't completely understand you feeling vindicated.

I absolutely get that sentiment. There's certainly still a chance that Richardson could be better than Stroud. I still hope he is. The thing I don't like is that we're still saying "chance" and "hope" about our team's guy and the front office let a division rival get what is likely to be the OROY and a franchise QB when they could've gone and gotten the franchise QB and let the division rival be talking about "chance" and "hope".
