will it be the right one? who knows.

right now i like Levis the best. based on skill set and mostly because Manning said something nice about him. something like "he will be playing on Sundays" or something like that.

Richardson is a scary pick for bust factor but if he hit, that could be awesome

I agree totally. I forget Polian's mantra on drafting a 1st round QB, but a couple of criteria were at least a 60% completion % over his career and at least a 3 year starter. We rarely have 3 year starters anymore, so I'm sure he revised that to 2 years.

Richardson doesn't even come close to fulfilling those criteria.

Levis is easily over the 60% completion % threshold, but his TD/Int ratio is pretty lackluster.
