I don't see any comparison traits between shelton and richardson, richardson has exceptional athleticism relative to size, two different body types and different styles of play.. I don't think were desperate for a 0 tech player, and thats what he is.
Why would you pass on a QB that you feel could be better than the one you have? Its not like RT has proven he is anything more than average.
Who do you feel could be better than RT that lasts to our pick? Pretty sure both Mariota and Winston will be gone by our pick. And if there is ONE thing that Tannehill has shown the past three seasons is that he continually improves year in and year out. Look at his QB ratings since entering the league: Year 1: 76.1 Year 2: 81.7 Year 3: 92.8 If he continues this trend, we're looking at somewhere around the 95.0 mark next season, which if I'm not mistaken, is well within top 10 QB region. There's absolutely nothing to suggest so far that he has peaked or that he will peak next season, and anyone who thinks otherwise has an agenda to push.
I guess we should blame the whole fast food culture that we have nowadays... people want immediate results and have a hard time grasping simple concepts such as "consistent improvement on a year-to-year basis". It's pretty sad, actually.
