Soafanforlife 430 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Will cool off obviously, but what a start. I had him at 85/1150/10 coming into the year, which would be a fringe WR1. TDs are not a science, but if the Atlanta defense keeps this up, we could see 95/1300/12 ... which should put him top 3-5. WR's I like over him are MT (when healthy), Adams, healthy Godwin, and Hill. At any rate, if you got him past round 3-4, you should be way in the black. Congrats and let's hope the Falcons D keep their end of the bargain. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brosephd 1,289 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 owned him last 2 years except this year. feels bad. always a knack for scoring tds, but now hes getting yards and receptions. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FitzMagic 4,260 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 It looks like some were right here a few weeks ago. I really thought this was another year of the HOO, but it looks like Ridley might just break out and put up the WR1 fantasy numbers. Julio is still WR1 on his team because he draws the toughest coverage. But from a fantasy perspective Ridley is killing it right now. We will see if it continues, but it is very promising through two games. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Congrats and let's hope the Falcons D keep their end of the bargain. They are for Ridley. He's quick and sharp with his routes in tight spaces like possibly no other receiver in the league right now. Below is a video of Ridley embarrassing a bunch of guys in training (no idea how good they are, looks like the one he makes almost fall down plays at UGA). Not to mention how terrible Hardman looks in comparison to Ridley. Then watch his second TD yesterday where he completely turns the DB around and gets wide open in about 2 seconds. He makes the pros look lost too. Edited September 21, 2020 by Illusion_J 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

IlliniGuy76 1,124 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 I love seeing the overanalyzing sometimes.... 1. He was a first round pick who was a very talented player coming out of Alabama. He was drafted by a team who has an elite QB distributing the football. 2. Targets are available 3. Dude had a very good Freshman & Sophomore season - especially seeing there were other mouths to feed in that offense in previous years. 4. Simply put - you're seeing a receiver completely blossom in his third season. Ride the wave folks! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rahuLL 112 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Just acquired Ridley. I think Julio will miss time eventually this year with the hamstring especially if this teams record is really poor. He's gonna eat. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I also can't believe the Chiefs took Hardman OVER DK Metcalf, but I guess the league and football gods could not put together a superteam of superteams for Mahomes to dominate with easily, but I digress. With that said, I still think TDs are so hard to predict. We can agree Rid has a knack for the ball, but variance between years is so random, and it's just tough to get down. I think at 12 TDs (just my guess), would be on the high end of things, but I sure hope he gets there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If he sits tomorrow, I’m worried. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GoPackGo23 422 Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Maybe they're just being overly cautious with him since they know Julio/Gage are banged up...can't afford to roll a less than 100% Ridley out there on Monday as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
