He did eventually get signed by Minnesota around 9 p.m. tonight but it just sucks seeing how quickly his stock dropped. He was a consensus top-20 pick this time last year.
It really makes me wonder why he didn't just stay in school and get his degree if his knees were already in this bad of shape.

I knew it had gotten bad but I didn't realize how bad his knee was. Tough break for him

It was his decision. He obviously was fed misleading information on his draft stock with his knee being that screwed up. Tough break, but sometimes you just make the wrong decision

Even after a somewhat disappointing JR. season and an underwhelming combine performance, most still though he would be late 2nd/early 3rd at worst. I hate that for him.
Sidenote- If anyone told me a year ago that Ja'Wuan James would be a first round pick while Richardson would go undrafted, I would've had a big mighty LOL.

This happens far too often! Too bad kids do not have folks around them giving real advice and not just fat little girlfriends and groupies looking for a quick score on somebody else's paycheck.

Could be that he was told about his knees and that it would only get worse with another year so he thought he'd take his shot now.
Regardless sucks for him, at least he's in somewhere, if he stays healthy his quality can see him get a proper chance

Hate to hear stuff like that when it comes to injuries etc... Question for y'all because I haven't kept up with him. Is it a knee injury that he can rehab from or is it something that is congenital or permanent where it's just not going to get any better? I was hoping the Rams would take a chance on him in the later rounds.

Microfracture is the word being thrown around
