Despite revamping the wide receiver corps last season the Chicago Bears were not done. To the surprise of some, the team added wide receiver Riley Ridley from Georgia. Ridley is a player that we noted the Bears had interest in, as we warned that pass catcher could come higher than some think.
Ridley is an interesting prospect who was not highly productive at Georgia and was not overly athletic at the combine. However, as the brother of Calvin Ridley he gets praised for similar qualities, which starts in his route running.
Riley Ridley being bigger and a strong route runner gives him NFL intrigue.
