Draft Breakdown was able to get out to the West Virginia Pro Day this year, and a player that caught our attention was cornerback Kent Richardson. Kent had a great workout and spent some time talking to NFL scouts afterwards. With his physical skill set, he’s certainly someone that needs to be on the radar of all NFL Draft followers. Rob Engle took a few minutes to talk with Kent about his career at WVU.

Engle: Hey Kent, thanks for taking the time to do this interview. What did you study at West Virginia?

Richardson: I studied Marketing.

Engle: What is your accurate height, weight, 40 time and bench press?

Richardson: My accurate height is 5’11 3/4, bench press is 435 and 20 reps at 225, and my 40 is a 4.46.

Engle: Who is the best player you’ve ever played against?
