Safety prospect with outstanding size but limited agility and cover talent, which could create a barrier to entry. Richardson has good play strength and can match up on big tight ends but doesn't play with the change-of-direction quickness needed to constrict the route and play the ball against true pass-catching tight ends and slots. He has good build-up speed but lacks early acceleration, and that could limit his range. Richardson is below average as an open-field tackler but can stop plays suddenly when he's locked in as a wrap-up tackler. His traits and special teams talent give him a shot, but he might be too limited for teams to keep him long-term.
