Richardson completed 176 of 327 attempts for 2,549 yards, 17 touchdowns, and nine interceptions in 12 games this season. He was also a key part of the Gators' ground game, adding 654 yards and nine scores on 103 carries.
The 21-year-old is expected to be one of the draft's most polarizing prospects. Richardson, listed at 6-foot-4 and 232 pounds, has rare athletic tools and arm talent but has limited starting experience and is still viewed as a raw passer.
