Calvin Ridley

[fansince68]

Which current NFL receiver can we compare to Ridley? It should be someone that was drafted in the past 5 years? Is he comparable to OBJ coming out? Is he not rated top ten because of the abundant QB's at the top of the draft? Does he have elite potential?

 

[Howboutdemcowboys31]

A lot of people say a poor mans Antonio Brown

 

[rnr_honeybadger]

Can the kid run good routes?

OBJ, LOL. Ridley is at best a #2 WR in the pros. He is criminally overrated. One of the worst combine performances of any WR that is likely to be drafted in the first round.

Is he better than dez???

 

[ksg811]

He's not OBJ. He's similar to the last Alabama 1st round WR, Amari Cooper. He plays low to the ground and isn't an explosive athlete but has more than enough straight-line speed. He wins with short area quickness and precise route running.

Marvin Harrison. 6 ft - 185lbs - 4.38 (40 yd )

Ridley. 6’1 - 190 - 4.44 (40 yd )

He could become 3/4 of Harrison sign me up!

 

[RodeoJake]

He could become 3/4 of Harrison sign me up!

If he becomes 3/4 Harrison, will he be missing an arm or a leg?

Not OBJ.
Much more like Brown.
But thats easy to say about prospects. They always get comped to great players.
Maybe poor man's Brown like mentioned above?

I wouldve said Harrison but thats not in the time window

It's crazy to think he will already be 25 before the 2018 season ends. I think that's why he won't be drafted as high. But I'll say a young Antonio Brown. A little taller though. He would of had better stats if his QB was better.

 

[America's Cowboy]

Stay away from Ridley. Overrated.

 

[Zekeats]

He is a mix of Marvin Harrison and Reggie Wayne. Can easily be a 80 catch 1,200 yard 7-10 tds per year right away for 4 seasons. Problem is his age. Not sure there are any knocks on him past that. Good route runner, Great seperation, decent hands. He's not huge but the way the rules play today he won't be taking huge hits over the middle or anywhere for that matter. I don't see anyone close to him. Only other guy I see that I like but he scares me is Sutton. I believe he is the perfect boom-bust player. He looks like TO but not sure if he will be good.

 

[cowboyec]

maybe Im off my nutt,but to me Ridley is the most pro ready.
smooth route runner.
excellent hands.
tough.
I think Ridley,Moore and Kirk are the 3 best of the class.
We'll see.
Only 1 I feel comfortable taking at 19 tho is Ridley.
If he is gone...Will Hernandez,G-Utep.

Marvin Harrison is the easy/popular comparison but on a lesser scale, I see a lot of Victor Cruz
