Richard Sherman, 5th round
Earl Thomas, 1st round
Kam Chancellor, 5th round
Byron Maxwell, 6th round
Brandon Browner, undrafted

Kris Richard has drafted and coached some impressive players.

Kris Richard has drafted and coached some impressive players.

Most of those players were late round picks. Think about that for a moment. It looks obvious to me that he knows how to work with individuals and the team as well.

He's a great addition for sure. But I would add that John Schneider probably had more draft influence than KR did. Schneider is to late round gems as Loomis is to Cap Mastery. But a great hire for sure.

Kris is an exceptional secondary coach & was groomed by sneaky Pete Carroll. Here are a few names that have been linked with KR coming to New Orleans in 2021 :

Jourdan Lewis
Chidobe Awuzie
Tye Smith
Shaquill Griffin
C.J. Goodwin

All played for Richard either with the Seahawks or DeathStarNation (Dallas).
