Many Chicago Bears fans are hoping for a second-year breakout from Riley Ridley. After spending a season as a depth receiver, there are open targets available with Taylor Gabriel gone. The question is whether or not Ridley is ready to make the step.
Ridley had just six receptions for 69 yards as a rookie. That came after being drafted 126th overall in the fourth round. The reality is that not many receivers breakout after being so far down the depth chart as a rookie, and not many drafted on Day three find success either.
Combining a receiver who was drafted outside of the top 100, and that did not put up at least ten receptions and 100 yards as a rookie creates a meager rate of successes.
