I can't wait to see which team drafts this guy, "the most athletic QB in NFL history":
Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer reports an NFC pass game coordinator said Florida QB Anthony Richardson's accuracy is "scary."
“The short accuracy is so scary. You’ve really got a project in him," the source told Breer. "And the accuracy, you can develop it, OK, but a guy who’s accurate is usually accurate coming out of high school and college, and he isn’t. Even Josh Allen, you look at him coming out of Wyoming, he had solid mechanics coming out, and he just had to tweak it. You watch it with this guy, and there are times when he fits it into tight windows, and maybe you can tap into that. But he’s a project. And the hit on it could be huge, because you don’t just find guys like this.” While Richardson struggled with short-area accuracy in Florida's basic passing scheme, he was excellent on longer throws. His "big-time deep throw" rate in college -- as measured by Pro Football Focus -- was in line with Bryce Young and C.J. Stroud, and better than Justin Herbert and Deshaun Watson. Richardson completed 42 percent of his attempts of more than 20 yards in 2022, the 21st highest rate among all FBS quarterbacks. Whichever team takes Richardson, the most athletic QB in NFL history, will certainly work tirelessly to clean up his shorter throws.
