    I'm from Colorado and a CU Buffalo fan, and I'd love for the Jets to get this dude. He has produced despite horrid circumstances, and being double or triple teamed in some cases. If you've never seen him, YouTube him.

    I follow him. He's a great player.

    I know he's smaller for a receiver, but you can't ignore his production. This is the type of player our Jets need to draft. Too many times they have ignored production and drafted based upon measurables.
    Stephen Hill is case in point - they could've had Alshon Jeffrey who did nothing but produce as a top WR for years in the SEC. He didn't run fast enough so they take a guy who did nothing in college but block and run fast at the combine. Nice choice.

    Richardson might be skinny, but there are guys like him in the NFL that have played at a high level and he will put on weight. Steve Johnson of Buffalo was probably the same size as him coming out. He has produced and put on enough weight to be effective. That's the type of player I see Richardson becoming (although he isn't dumb as rocks like Johnson)
