You may not, but I'm pretty sure a team like the Chargers do. They'll give him serious consideration with their #25 pick. Denver will as well with the #31.
Considering his versatility, big time production on impact plays and instincts, I think Van Noy is a very solid first round selection.
And I love Richardson, especially at guard. The guy is powerful and has very good hands and feet. You're talking about a guy who was a two-time All-American including first team on every single recognized All-American list this past season. Two time first team All-Conference. Jim Parker Award winner.
Anchored a line that led the nation in total yards, scoring and rushing.
89 knockdowns in 2013.
Richardson literally was one of the best offensive line players in college in 2013. I'd rank him third to Gabe Jackson and S'ua-Filo in terms of guard prospects.
He was starter at left guard in 2013 and 2012 (where he earned first team All-Conference and second team All-America honors). Starter at left tackle as a sophomore.
I don't see how it's possible not to like Richardson, especially if he's there in the third round as he's being projected.
