The Facts:
Back in November when Richardson was being severely outplayed by Donald Brown, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported that GM Ryan Grigson would make the same trade all over again to surrender his 2014 first-round pick for the struggling tailback. Asked at the NFL Scouting Combine on Friday if that remains true, Grigson stated simply, "Yes."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
No surprise there. It was just last month the GM insisted that Richardson
was a vital part of the Colts' 2013 success. Grigson said Friday that Richardson is a "tough, good, talented football player" with a broad skill set. "He expects what we expect," Grigson continued. "And that's greatness." HC Chuck Pagano added Friday that the "sky's the limit" for Richardson in Indianapolis. Although Grigson concedes that "there's room for improvement" and Richardson is still learning how best to operate in Pep Hamilton's offense, he believes the Colts remain "in a great place with him." But Richardson is
coming off arthroscopic shoulder surgery performed earlier this offseason; he'll need to get to work quickly in order to get ahead.
