Not a guru when it comes to gauging where guys will get picked in the draft..Gotta think he will have suitors after he's done at MT. Assuming he's a four-year guy...
 
He needs to stay 4 years. Two more years of balling out and he's a round 2-3 type guy. Leave after this year and he's a 5-7 type guy

i think he's a 2nd round talent. he's such a playmaker and seems to turn ordinary plays into touchdowns. The NFL loves players like that.

True, the NFL loves playmakers like Richie. It also helps that there seems to be a move back to smaller WR.

The biggest downsides with Richie are :
1) Size
2) Experience run a pro route tree

His production against top competition shows he can play on a high level, but let's not forget WKU WR Taywan Taylor (who is bigger than Richie and had experience in a pro route tree) was drafted in 3rd round.
 
The NFL is having a love fest right now with the smaller receivers. Antonio Brown, Julian Edelman, Taylor Gabriel, Tyreek Hill, etc. Based on that alone I could see him going very early
