NFL Draft Rumors: Some Think Seahawks Will Pick Anthony Richardson If QB's Available

It appears Anthony Richardson could be headed to the Pacific Northwest.

A rumor reported by ProFootballTalk's Mike Florio says that there is "chatter in league circles" that the Seattle Seahawks may be targeting Florida quarterback Anthony Richardson with the fifth overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft.

This possibility could be considered a bit odd because the team re-signed quarterback Geno Smith to a three-year, $105 million contract in the offseason. This deal does notably come with an option for the team to opt out after next year.
