  The NFL draft, A place were dreams become a reality, And that happened to one player, Anthony Richardson A quarterback from the Florida Gators and a potential NFL star. In his carrer for his dream to the NFL he has been through something because he has only started one season at Florida and that was last collage season. But now he is with the Indianapolis Colts and with a team that has potential to be great.

But this year there have been some comsperase theories. If Anthony Richardson is the right pick for the Colts. Even though he was the best quarterback at the combine with the tied record for vertical jump and one of the fast and farthest sprint and broad jump, But people think that he wasn’t the right quarterback in the draft because it was either will levis the quarterback for Kentucky or Anthony Richardson but based on the combine it was pretty obvious that the Colts were going with Anthony.

My Opinion:

I think that Anthony Richardson was a great pick for the Indianapolis Colts and that he will be great for the Colts. He has got the athleticism and he’s got the strength and legs for this plus he was being compared to Lamar Jackson and Cam Newton so it seems that he could be the star of the NFL but he has got some troubles he lead Flordia to a 6-6 record and he only completed 54% of his passes which isn’t the best but he was lifted by his rushing stats and a little by passing yards. Now he didn’t have the best season or the fact that he started for one year but this man is buff and the tallest quarterback in the draft so I think he is going to do great things for the Indianapolis Colts.
