Florida football has a history of putting top talent into the NFL, which has become a big part of their recruiting pitch. Their top draft pick this season, Anthony Richardson, just officially signed his first contract, and that man got paid.
AR signed a 4-year deal with $33.99 million which includes a $21.72 million signing bonus, all of which is paid upfront.
That’s generational money for a generational talent.
Is Anthony Richardson worth the investment?
If you ask me, the answer is yes. Looking at his highlights, the way he plays, and his limitless ceiling, there’s no way you can tell me that he isn’t worth taking a chance on.
