Anthony Richardson Compared to Cam Newton, Josh Allen: 'Holy S--t, This Guy Is Big'

Florida prospect Anthony Richardson continues to shoot up boards ahead of the 2023 NFL draft, with several coaches having high praise for the quarterback.

"I think he's the closest thing we've seen to Cam [Newton], and his combine numbers were obviously better," an anonymous coach told Bruce Feldman of The Athletic. "I think that comp is fair. I think his best football is in front of him."

Another coach said "Josh Allen is the comp for me" with more comments on Richardson's physical ability.

"Pro football is changing and becoming more like college football with the running quarterback," the coach said.
