In any given draft, there are several polarizing players. This year, one of those is Florida quarterback Anthony Richardson. The young signal-caller oozes with top-tier talent and arguably has the highest ceiling of any other player at the position in this 2023 cla s. That said, Richardson is a raw prospect who still needs a bit of refining before
Maury Wills Jersey he can reach his immense potential, which makes him a bit of a gamble to take as QB1 late this month in the . On Thursday, Richardson penned an open letter titled "Dear GMs" in and stated his case for why he is worth that roll of the dice. He highlighted his upbringing, coming from hard-working roots inspired by his mother. He also showcased his introduction to football led by his late uncle, Tanka, who pa sed away roughly a year after his family moved to Gainesville when Richardson was in the
Babe Herman Jersey sixth grade and the quarterback noted that he "made a promise to myself that I was going to do everything in my power to get to the NFL" in his honor.As for the on-field questions surrounding Richardson (like his 53.8 completion percentage last season), he addre sed those head-on."I may not pay attention to all the noise, but I do hear the critics," Richardson wrote. "I
Andre Ethier Jersey know the things people are picking apart. People talk about whether I can be accurate. They say I don't have touch. They say I can't throw short. They say a lot of things. All I gotta say is: Watch how hard I work. In my mind, I can do anything with the football in my hand -- but Ithat no one will ever work harder than me to improve." Richardson also noted that he's ready to take the leap up a level from college to the pros in terms of the mental aspect of his position. He saw firsthand what type of advantage a deep knowledge of the game can be working behind fellow Gator and
Justin Turner Jersey current quarterback ."Watching Kyle Trask helped my game a lot," he said. "One of the best things I learned from watching him is, if you know your offense like the back of your hand, it's easy to expose another defense. All you have to do is learn their tendencies and exploit them. Kyle knows almost every protection check, every route. And it clicked for me like,. Seeing how easy it was for him to communicate with Coach Mullen, and Kyle knowing almost as much as Coach, it was like,So I just tried to implement that in my game, and
Logan Forsythe Jersey add a little flavor to it whenever I'm on the field."Richardson is coming off a junior season where he threw for 2,549 yards, 17 touchdowns and nine interceptions while adding 654 yards on the ground and nine more scores. He is and the fourth quarterback prospect in this cla s behind Bryce Young. C.J. Stroud and Will Levis. Whichever team does decide to pull the trigger and bring aboard Richardson, here's his me sage to that franchise: "I promise that you won't regret it."
III wants to stay in Cincinnati, his home since he was drafted by the in 2018. He also wants a new
Larry Nance Jr. Jersey contract, as the veteran safety has played out his rookie deal. It appears that Bates will get his wish to remain in Cincinnati, but a new contract may not be in the cards, at least not in the near future.The Bengals are expected to place the franchise tag on Bates before the March 8 deadline to do so, USA Today. Cincinnati will then continue to try to negotiate towards a longterm deal for Bates, who played an integral role in the Bengals' unexpected Super Bowl run this past season. The
Vlade Divac Jersey two sides have until 4 p.m. on July 15 to come to terms on a new deal. If they cannot agree on a new deal, Bates would play under the tag in 2022 which is expected to pay him roughly $13 million, all guaranteed.If tagged, Bates won't be able to test the market. His market value is currently slated at about $72.44 million over five years for an average annual salary of $14.48 million,. The totality of Bates' market value would make him the NFL's highest-paid safety.
Kobe Bryant Jersey Annually, Bates would be among the league's highest-paid safeties but behind,,,and. Along with Bates, the Bengals also have to consider the upcoming contracts of other key players like receiversand, quarterback, and linebacker. The Bengals also have other current free agents to consider re-signing likeand, both of whom played a big role in Cincinnati having one of the league's
James Worthy Jersey toughest run defenses last year.The 52nd overall pick in the 2018, Bates has collected 10 interceptions, 35 pa ses defensed and 408 tackles in 63 regular season games. Bates really showed his worth in the 2021 postseason, as he recorded two interceptions, broke up six pa ses and made 20 tackles for the reigning AFC champions. As far as his future is concerned, it's highly likely that Bates will be back in Cincinnati for the 2022 season. Whether or not he will be there beyond that may come down to whether or not the two sides can come
Kurt Rambis Jersey to terms on a new deal before this summer's deadline.
It's safe to say we're on a bit of a heater over these last two weeks. After a so-so start to the year, my picks have come alive and are bringing me back to a more respectable record on the year overall.In Week 7 and Week 8, I was a combined 21-8 ATS in my NFL picks, which includes a 9-1 ATS mark in my locks of the week. We were also 22-7 on the Moneyline over that stretch as well. Last week
Nikolaj Ehlers Jersey , we ran the table with a 5-0 ATS mark in my locks of the week, which was thanks to the late-game heroics of edging out a win and cover against the in the final seconds.How long will these good vibes run? Who knows? That said, we'll take the wins when we can get them and will look to keep that momentum going as we turn our attention to Week 9, starting with my five locks of the week.Regular seasonLocks of the Week ATS: 20-18-2ATS:59-61-3ML:71-52I'm a believer in the Seahawks, which is something I thought I'd never say coming into the season. However, Seattle has played well and has been a good bet for us this season (including last week against New York), so let's go back to the well here as they head to Arizona. A large part of their succe s this season has been the play of . He is currently first in the NFL in completion percentage and pa ser rating. What's arguably most impre sive has been Smith's ability to make some tough throws as he's top three in the NFL in pa ser rating 15+ yards down the field, throws outside the numbers, and pa sing when pre sured. You match that against an Arizona pa s defense that ranks 23rd in DVOA and Smith
Logan Stanley Jersey should have another strong outing, so taking the points is an easy choice. is also 5-14 SU in his career against the NFC West. Projected score:Seahawks 27, Cardinals 24The pick:Seahawks +2I've been impre sed with what I've seen from over the last couple of weeks and am excited to see what the addition of may do to further his development. However, I don't think this will be the weekend where he puts the NFL firmly on notice with an upset over the Dolphins. Miami's pa sing offense is as dangerous as any club in the NFL thanks to speedsters and . Meanwhile, is 5-0 SU when he plays a full game this season and leads the NFL in pa ser rating. This potent offense will be too much to handle for a Bears pa s defense that ranks in the middle of the pack in DVOA. When you consider Miami being a top-10 run defense even before the addition of at the deadline, this unit should be able to contain Chicago enough that they clear laying five on the road. The Bears are also 2-6-1 ATS in their last nine home games.Projected score:Dolphins 27, Bears 21The pick:Dolphins -5Detroit feels like a team knocking on the door of a rebuild after firing its defensive backs coach and trading away in the division at the deadline. The Lions have lost four straight and have failed to cover in their last four games, making them impo sible to trust at the moment, even if we're getting a field goal and a hook
Tobias Enstrom Jersey at home.In terms of saving this season, you could make the case that the Packers are the more desperate team coming into Week 9 as they cling to playoff relevancy. Even in defeat last Sunday in Buffalo, the Packers were able to move the ball on the ground with and the back has a great history against Detroit. He's the only opponent in franchise history with multiple games of 100+ scrimmage yards and three or more total touchdowns. The Lions also rank 30th in the NFL in DVOA against the run, so this could end up being a huge afternoon for both Jones and .
Ondrej Pavelec Jersey Projected score:Packers 27, Lions 21The pick:Packers -3.5The Raiders seem lost at the moment after being shut out by the in Week 8. With that in mind, it's quite surprising to see them as a slim road favorite here against the Jaguars. Is it a trap? Probably. I'm taking the cheese anyways and taking the point with Jacksonville. Las Vegas is one of three teams still winle s on the road this season (0-4) and hasn't been a particularly strong bet as a road favorite in his career, owning a 5-12-1 ATS record. That includes a failure to cover in seven straight as a road favorite to go along with just nine touchdowns and 14 interceptions over that stretch.Meanwhile, there's no denying that the Jags have their own problems, but they have started to run the ball effectively with ascending and that should help stabilize the offense for , who'll be playing against the 31st-ranked pa s defense in DVOA.Projected score:Jaguars 24, Raiders 21The pick:Jaguars +1Both of these teams have failed to meet expectations this season, which robs us of this being a can't-mi s matchup in what is a so-so Week 9 slate overall. Neither club has shown an ability to run the football effectively, but I currently trust -- to use that word loosely --the Bucs pa sing attack more than I do the Rams. That is particularly true now that is dealing with an ankle injury. He is expected to play, but it is hard to imagine that he'll be 100% and that could be dire for Los Angeles' offense, especially when going against a Bucs defense that ranks No. 5 in DVOA. So long as Brady can hit his receivers for a couple of big plays, they should be able to clear this game by more than a field goal. That's also not mentioning that L.A. is 0-3 SU and ATS as an underdog this season.

For those Lions fans who may not have strong constitutions, Campbell shared some blunt advice on Tuesday.In the Lions' shootout win over the Chargers, Campbell elected to go for it on fourth down five different times, and the team converted on four of them. and discu sed his penchant for rolling the dice.If any Lions fans out there get nervous when the team lines up for a fourth-down attempt, they may want to invest in some Pampers."I tell my family this, 'Wear a diaper before some of these games,'" Campbell said.
Gerrit Cole Jersey "I'll give them an alert and say, 'Put them on and be ready to roll.'"The biggest gamble Campbell made all game was a fourth-and-2 situation on the Chargers' 26-yard line in a tie game with 1:47 left on the clock. If Detroit failed to convert, and the Chargers would have gotten the
Adam Lind Jersey ball back with a chance to win the game. Instead, found tight end for six yards, and the Lions were able to kick a field goal to win as time expired.Prior to the game, Campbell said he knew he would have to be aggre sive if he wanted
Aaron Judge Jersey to give his team a shot to win, and he had faith that his players would answer the bell."I had a feeling going into that game we needed to be aggre sive, and I loved our matchup offensively," Campbell said. "I just knew our guys would respond. Certainly, in that moment, it felt like
Paul O'Neill Jersey the right thing to do." Campbell's approach has certainly been working for the Lions so far. Detroit is currently 7-2 and ahead of the for the NFC North lead.

This organization does a good job of bringing a lot of men from different backgrounds into one place and putting them through a certain level of competition... that allows them to grow together and
Cory Spangenberg Jersey embrace it together ... I'm in a really happy place."This happy place is one reason why Agholor feels he will be at his best next season. He said his attitude coming in is thanks to the players, coaches and training staff around him and knowing what to expect from the offense.Agholor said the Patriots route tree is "unique," but now he knows the routes, which will have any WR feeling better about performing well during a game.
