Chad Ritchie brings Swiss-army-knife QB value to Lafayette
In the 2001 season, Chad Ritchie was a versatile, high-IQ quarterback for Lafayette who was used heavily in special situations and red-zone packages, finishing with 14-of-30 passing for 92 yards and 3 passing touchdowns, plus 50 rushing yards and 2 rushing touchdowns. He also added receiving value, which tells you he was more than a one-trick QB. Reports highlighted his speed and athleticism, and his academic recognition points to a disciplined, team-first player who could handle multiple roles. If your team wants a smart, adaptable, situational playmaker, he fits; if you need a pure volume passer, less so.
