Maybe a Brown recluse?

The picture is too out of focus for identification with
any certainty. However it looks like it could be a
fishing spider, family Pisauridae, of which there
are some very large ones in Florida. They look
much like wolf spiders and are related to them.
It certainly is not a daddylonglegs or a brown
widow and does not look at all like a brown recluse
in any way except being brown and being a spider.

Well, I can't tell because the picture's fuzzy, but the overall form is very similar to that of a brown recluse! O_o Those're poisonous. Next time you see one (without getting too close) look at the head. See if there's a dark brown fiddle-shape, with the 'base' of the fiddle near the eyes/mouth and the 'handle' stretching toward the back-end of the spider. If it has this distinctive mark, a brown recluse it is. Be wary!

not a good picture, you gotta be able to see it from above, and not blurry... looks like it could be a brown recluse, but it will have a definite violin on its back.... look up a picture of a brown recluse and make sure it looks the same... otherwise it's probably nothin

oh that little guy, he's nothing worry about... he's only the 2nd most poisoness spider alive! One bite and you'd be dead in like 3, no 2 seconds.
Its name is the "uglyfloridianspiderectectect". Common folk call those spiders, Ralph.

Picture is very blurry so it's hard to tell. I am thinking it's either a brown widow or a brown recluse.

Holy crap!
I don't know, but I admire the fact you got that close to take a picture! Kudos to you!
