Calvin Ridley

ANALYSIS
This was rather expected as Ridley had very little left to prove at the collegiate level and is already on the older end of the spectrum for a receiving prospect at age 23. Ridley (6-1, 190) may not have the size to be a prototypical WR1 in an NFL offense, but everything else about his game suggests that he'll be a productive receiver at the next level. Not only is Ridley fast, but he's also a crafty route runner who knows where to find soft spots in the defense both before and after the catch. Considering how early it is in the draft process, any of the top three receiving prospects could be the first wideout taken based on team preference, but Ridley likely has the strongest case to be the first receiver off the board come April.
