The NFL Combine just concluded, and this would normally be the time where I recapped the biggest winners and losers and discussed athletic testing numbers. Instead, we’re all talking about a much more significant piece of news: Calvin Ridley’s suspension. Obviously, we’ve covered it well in other articles. The only thing we haven’t touched on is how it might affect the Atlanta Falcons’ draft strategy.
To be totally honest, I don’t think it affects the draft strategy much at all. All of us at The Falcoholic were expecting a Ridley trade to happen, so wide receiver was considered a massive need.
