Anthony Richardson News
Anthony Richardson not quite as raw · May 16, 2023
The Colts don't believe Anthony Richardson is "not quite as raw as he’s sometimes been portrayed."
They've also reportedly been impressed by his pocket awareness specifically. Richardson turns 21 next week and remains a work in progress obviously. Additionally, with players currently only in shorts and without pads, all should have an opportunity to make a positive first impression. The Colts are going to tailor the offense around their new ultra-athletic quarterback while playing the long game in his development. There may be no player possessing a higher ceiling and lower floor potential than Richardson, DLF's rookie QB1 and our QB12 overall.
Anthony Richardson a ridiculous talent · May 8, 2023
Brian Johnson, a former University of Florida assistant who help recruit Richardson, says the quarterback is a "ridiculous" NFL talent and the Colts believe he has superstar potential
Richardson is currently being selected as the rookie QB1 in drafts, selected second-overall behind only Bijan Robinson in superflex formats, and even in the top-eight selections in 1QB formats. The ceiling and potential for Richardson is just too high for fantasy coaches to not drool over, despite the raw mechanics and lack of multi-year collegiate production. Richardson is an even-odds bet to be under-center when 2023 kicks off in September but even should Gardner Minshew find his way to the starting role, he'll only be keeping the role warm for Richardson. He's listed as DLF's QB12.
Anthony Richardson drafted by Indy · Apr 28, 2023
The Indianapolis Colts selected quarterback Anthony Richardson with the fourth overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft.
Richardson was a fast riser in draft circles. The Colts were rumored to have Kentucky quarterback Will Levis ranked ahead of him but that proved to be an absolute smokescreen. Richardson is one of the most polarizing quarterback prospects we've ever seen and it's possible he sits behind Gardner Minshew to start the season. New Head Coach Shane Steichen was able to work miracles with Jalen Hurts and will try to do the same now in Indy. Richardson will be a top five pick in superflex leagues with many people taking him at the 1.01, taking the chance on his elite athleticism.
Anthony Richardson impresses · Mar 31, 2023
Anthony Richardson impressed at Florida's pro day.
Richardson was impressive again though only participated in passing drills. He has little to prove in the athletic department though he did complete his workout with a perfect backflip. While we've seen mock drafts from some NFL pundits with Richardson falling out o the top ten selections, there's just too much need at the position and it will be a surprise if the freak athlete remains on the board after pick seven. Richardson continues to rise on fantasy boards but has little room for further ascent given his QB3 and R4 (overall) on DLF's superflex rookie rankings
Mock Draft: Anthony Richardson · Mar 29, 2023
In Bucky Brooks' most recent mock draft, Anthony Richardson was selected 20th-overall by the Seahawks
The selection is noteworthy due to the fact that nearly every NFL pundit mock draft now has Richardson falling to no later than 7th-overall (Raiders), while most now have him selected in the top four. A combination of intriguing athletic talent and leaguewide need make a selection outside the top seven picks unlikely, though any selecting team is taking a leap of faith the dynamic player can make major strides as a passer to go with his otherworldly mobility and speed. Richardson has risen to DLF's QB3 and the R4 (overall) on our superflex rankings.
Anthony Richardson buzz · Mar 11, 2023
Todd McShay reports he's "heard a little buzz" about Carolina being interested in Anthony Richardson with the first-overall selection of the 2023 NFL Draft
Unless you've been under a rock for the past week, Anthony Richardson's picture is now under the definition of "buzz" in the fantasy football almanac, so it stands to reason he may be in play for the 1.01. That said, With Bryce Young and C.J. Stroud much more pro-ready prospects, it's hard to imagine the Panthers, after years of unsuccessfully trying to find their new long-term answer at quarterback, would hazard a selection on a rookie who some believe is a year or two away from being ready to start in the NFL. That's not to say, due to athletic ability, that the athletic prospect won't be under-center come week one for whichever team selects him. It's looking more likely that four quarterbacks will be off the board within the first seven selections during the NFL Draft. Richardson is found as DLF's QB4.
Mock Draft: Anthony Richardson · Mar 7, 2023
In Todd McShay's first mock draft following the NFL Combine, Anthony Richardson is selected fourth overall by the Raiders.
After blowing up the NFL Combine, the intrigue of Richardson will be too much for at least one NFL team and McShay's bet is on the Raiders, who he projects to trade up for the rights to Richardson. History paints a dubious picture of past athletic combine blowouts at the position, with none of the top five quarterbacks going on to see fantasy prominence, but Richardson is built differently, though remains extremely raw as a passer. Dynasty coaches are left to wrestle with the intrigue of what could be. A selection by the Raiders also calls into question what the team would do with the athletic quarterback in his rookie years, as the team has no other viable starters on the roster. It's an intriguing landing spot for Richardson, DLF's rookie QB3.
Anthony Richardson sets records · Mar 5, 2023
Anthony Richardson blew up the NFL Combine athletically, but historical athletic comparisons aren't favorable for NFL success
Richardson will be all the talk of the Combine after he produced new records in the broad jump (10'9") and the vertical jump (40.5") and notched a 4.44 40-yard dash, second all-time. There's no question he put on a dazzling display athletically, but it didn't stop there. He also showcased his elite arm strength in passing drills. That all said, while athletically there's no question he is an elite athlete, none of the top-five athletic scores at the position have gone on to NFL stardom. Ranked in order of athleticism scores: 1) Richardson 2) Robert Griffin 3) Tyree Jackson 4) Trevor Knight and 5) Tyrod Taylor. Richardson is built differently but it's clear NFL coaches will have a lot of work to do if they expect to transfer his athleticism into a successful starting quarterback. Found as DLF's QB3, there's no more intriguing player in 2023 rookie drafts but fantasy coaches will need to weigh the risk-reward elements carefully based on need and draft position.
Anthony Richardson runs 4.44 · Mar 4, 2023
Anthony Richardson ran a 4.44 40-yard dash.
Ridiculous and, unsurprisingly, he called it quits following the single run. Richardson is living up to all billing and has basically set new records in most every drill. There's little way Richardson isn't moving up draft boards based on his otherworldly performance though so many questions remain about his ability to develop. He remains as DLF's rookie QB3.
Anthony Richardson measurements · Mar 4, 2023
Anthony Richardson measured in at a massive 6'4" and 244 lbs. with 10 1/2" hands.
Richardson has only recently moved up to QB3 on DLF's rookie quarterback rankings, pushing Will Levis down to QB4. The upside and ceiling potential of Richardson is just too much for dynasty coaches, and likely many NFL coaches as well, to pass on with this year's strongest arm and elite mobility. With a good showing during the Combine, Richardson could climb rookie draft boards.
