I'm not even joking.  He reminds me of Landry and OBJ coming out.  

The aggressiveness for the ball, YAC, hand-catcher, top end speed, route tree.  It's all there.  

He reminds you of 2 totally different players? That’s weird 

[Panthers8969]

What round are y’all talking about here? Miller and Washington are not first rounders.

I'd prefer to find WR in FA. Watkins, Wallace, Moncrief, Robinson, Lee, Richardson... We have a lot of young upside WRs, I don't think the priority should be adding another. Give me a proven guy or two in FA. We have zero youth and zero upside at safety and DE. Safety or DE should be priority in draft. Though I would love to have Calvin Ridley if he's there at 24. Don't think he will be ultimately, and don't want to trade up.

Agreed 100% with everything up until the bolded portion. He looked like a JAG tonight. If he's there at 24 I'd be fine with considering him, but I wouldn't give up anything to move up for him. It scares me when players don't improve throughout their college career and he not only didn't improve but he had his best season as a freshman. 

After reading so many of y'all rave about him I was looking forward to watching him a little closer and came away like

To be fair on Ridley, Jalen Hurts is not in any way a prolific passer.

indeed. Looks like a solid WR but hes not some otherworldy talent worth trading the farm for

if anything i might trade one of our 3rds to move up a couple or 3 slots to snag Christian Kirk and make sure Buffalo dont punk us again like they did with Zay Jones last year. 

Julio didn't have gaudy stats either, Ridley actually has better stats in college than Julio. Alabama is a RUN first squad, people forget that. The dude seriously has no weaknesses and Hurts could have had him on 2 passes back to back. Early in the game, didn't see him wide open over the middle of the field and the fade pass sucked. We'll see what he does leading up to the draft but Cooper has gone on record to say Ridley was a better prospect than himself as a freshman. He's worth the farm in my honest opinion.

My post said I would not trade up for him.

James Washington has to be on our short list of round 1 players. Love this highlights and skill set.

I think Ridley, Sutton , and Kirk will be gone by pick 24. Bears NEED a WR hella bad. 

I think its a little early for the 'gone by pick' talk. Doesn't the board change quite a bit over the all star games, combine and pro days? 

[WOW!!]

DE, Safety, RB and TE in the draft..

A vet WR ready to go day 1..in FA 

[JARROD]

Yeh I’m on the Safety corner DE Offensive tackle tightend for top 4 draft picks 

2,free agent wide receivers like Sammy and Crabtree, or trade For Josh Gordan.

his new contract will have an out for drugs

Not in style of course, what I was getting at is that they both exhibited a very aggressive style with strong hand-catching in college.  I like spotting the receivers that have that get-to-the-ball mentality.   Cam needs that type of receiver, not the body catchers that run 3 routes in college.  Not saying the guys who get asked very little of can't succeed because they do if they're talented and have the know-how, but if we get a rookie receiver, I want an aggressive catcher with a refined route tree.
