Quote to note
“I think I can transition to any position, honestly. I’ve been working on a lot of interior stuff all spring, but obviously I have thousands and thousands of reps at tackle. I’m telling anybody, I’ll play a little tight end too. But whatever position they want to play to help the team win, that’s all that matters to me.” — Richman on making the transition from tackle in college to guard in the NFL.
What the scouts say:
“Richman positions himself well to sustain in pass pro and shows good lateral quickness off the snap to reach, seal or cut off speed, although he overshoots his landmarks at times. Though he needs to show better control in space, he gets low in the run game and washes on down blocks. Overall, Richman graded as an NFL camp body last summer, but he worked himself into the conversation as a draftable prospect with his play in 2024 and offers valuable experience for the next level.” — Dane Brugler, The Ringer.
