PAUL RICHARDSON

Paul Richardson‘s career hasn’t gone exactly as planned. A second round pick out of Colorado, Richardson has failed to live up to his draft status, failing to record a 1,000 yard season throughout his six years in the league.

Richardson’s best season came in 2017 – his last with Seattle – where he had 44 catches for 703 yards and six touchdowns. That was also the only season where Richardson played in all 16 games. This past season, the former second round pick played in ten games and caught 28 passes for 245 yards and two touchdowns with the Redskins.

Richardson has proven that he’s not a WR1 or even a WR2, but he’s a nice depth piece and could use a change of scenery.

GERONIMO ALLISON

At just 26 years of age, Geronimo Allison is one of the youngest wideout options on the market. He never wowed during his time with Green Bay, but he did well in 2018 despite playing in just five games.

That season saw Allison gain at least 60 yards in all but one game and find the end zone twice. He looked like he might be becoming a bigger name in the league after a strong showing in five games, but his followup season in 2019 was less than stellar.

I’d like to think the 2018 season is the kind of player Allison can be and with him being young, he’s worth a look in free agency. Catching passes from both Aaron Rodgers and Mahomes would be quite the resumé booster too.
