Jordan Richards

After releasing safety Ron Parker the Atlanta Falcon's made a trade with the New England Patriots for former second-round safety Jordan Richards.

The move was likely to add depth again after letting Parker go. Richards will likely be depth player at best and not on IDP owners radars.

Jordan Richards, the Patriots second-round pick in this year's draft, has quickly made himself right at home in New England. On the field, he has made a handful of standout plays against older, more established pros. Off the field, he's impressed his teammates and coaches alike with his football intelligence and his diligence in the classroom.

Fantasy Impact

Jordan Richards was considered a reach when the Patriots took him in the second round. The team obviously sees something special in the Stanford rookie. The secondary in New England is wide open this year so Richards has a chance to move up the depth chart and make an impact on the defense.
