Film room: Decamerion Richardson, a project with outstanding potential

The fourth round of the NFL Draft is typically when a lot of teams start looking for ‘upside’ or potential in prospects. That’s likely a big reason why the Las Vegas Raiders used the 113th overall selection on Mississippi State cornerback Deacmerion Richardson.
