Anthony Richardson is widely considered to be the best all-around athlete in the 2023 NFL Draft class, but there is very little consensus on where he will be selected. According to one coach, part of the reason for that is that the former Florida star struggles in one important area.
Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated spoke with several executives, scouts and coaches to gather opinions on the top quarterbacks in the upcoming draft. One AFC passing-game coordinator said he would consider taking Richardson with the top overall pick. An NFC quarterbacks coach called Richardson “freakiest athlete probably ever at the position” but said the quarterback’s accuracy is “scary.”
The coach did not mean that in a positive way.
