Alabama star wide receiver Calvin Ridley turning prohttp://www.al.com/alabamafootball/index.ssf/2018/01/alabama_star_wr_turning_pro.html

One of my favorite players. Good luck to the young man.

Good now he just needs to be drafted by the Redskins. Please and thank you!

No surprise. He's been awesome for us. Now go make that money Calvin!

Sorry fellas, I doubt Ridley makes it past the Bears. The higher draft pick and the fact that the Bears DESPERATELY needs WR. I doubt Ridley falls past 8-10.

Besides, he's a Bears fan.

Good decision. Nothing left for him to prove. He wasn't going to dramatically improve his draft stock by staying. He got his second NC ring. Time to go cash in.

What about how Kevin White was supposed to be the best receiver ever? He's definitely lived up to expectations.

Thanks for all the great memories, Calvin! Good luck at the next level. Have a long and prosperous career. RTR!

The young wide receivers we have on the roster must be as excited as they can be.

Yep, Calvin and Bo so far. Can understand and agree with both. Regarding Bo, IMO it`s the wear and tear issue as much as anything. Go make the money, boys!! Good luck!

Injuries, not production is why he busted in Chicago.

Seriously, the Bears started guys like Wheaton, Wright, and Inman (who they acquired during the season) and Ridley outproduced everybody on the Bears roster. If there is a team that needs Calvin Ridley, it's the Bears.

WR1. Top 10 pick. Big drop off after Ridley so he will be a hot commodity..

Good on Calvin. He should be a top pick.

You also have Christian Kirk but after that............

From what I gather most view the WR prospects as Ridley and then a level down to everyone else. Kirk is in that next group - no doubt..

JBama_in_PCOLA · Jan 10, 2018

Now I feel I could have titled this a bit better.

Good post Buzzard. Thanks Calvin for bleeding Crimson and be wise with you money young man!

Kirk isn't a great route runner. Super explosive but he is more of an athlete than WR unlike Ridley.

RedWave · Jan 10, 2018

Not a surprise. Would have loved to see him in an offense with Tua at QB, but I totally understand why he made his choice.

Wish you all the best in the NFL, Calvin #3. Thanks for your contributions to the Crimson Tide!
