It's not about stats, it's about what the player showcases in terms of QB development. Can Milroe go through progressions like Richardson? Can he make pre-snap reads? Can he adjust the line and/or hot route? What does his tape show us? An inability to throw over the middle and throw with anticipation?

Again, this is why Josh Allen was a top 10 pick despite having a 56% completion rate. This is why 5'11 Bryce Young went #1 overall over a 6'4 CJ Stroud. You can throw for 4,000 yards out of Mike Leach's offense and it means absolutely nothing if your tape is showing issues like this

Congratulations, Milroe has a live arm. That means absolutely nothing if he's unable to use it consistently. Richardson's athletic ceiling was sky high and the general opinion was his inaccuracy was fixable. Being a year four quarterback and unable to do rudimentary tasks, is not going to be viewed anywhere the same as sloppy footwork.
