Falcons Take Calvin Ridley With 26th Overall Pick
7 years agoThe Atlanta Falcons selected Alabama wide receiver Calvin Ridley with the 26th overall pick in the 2018 NFL draft. It gives quarterback Matt Ryan more firepower in the passing game, and Ridley could be the best receiver in this draft class. Ridley is very quick, but he'll need to work on overcoming press coverage. Ridley makes his living down the field after the catch, and he'll be able to learn from elite wideout Julio Jones. In that offense in Atlanta, Ridley perhaps has the most single-season value for fantasy owners and the most upside for a rookie receiver in Year 1.
