Riley Ridley

[BaBaBlacksheep]

Did Pace fuck up this? I know it's early but:

Ridley: Pick 126 6 REC 69 YARDS

Next two WR's drafted last year:

Hunter Renfrow: Pick 149 49 REC 605 YARDS

Darious Slayton: Pick 171 48 REC 740 YARDS

Bonus point.... Pace picked up AntMill at pick 51 and passed on pro bowl WR DJ Chark who was picked at 61.

Still dont know about any of our WR's potential because of our QB...

 

[smilebit]

Please remind everyone who the QB's were for those recievers and how was the online protection as well as the offensive scheme and were those receivers in a strong or weak WR room as those might factor in how Riley compares to them

 

[vabearsfan15]

both players got extended playing time because their teams suck and they have no depth whatsoever at WR

 

[Tjodalv]

The guy would have to play in order to make catches.

Interesting.... so AR is still an unknown?

The Bears offense did suck. And the Bears have no WR depth.

ARob prob would have had 1400 yds and 12+ TDs with a real QB.

100% agree. But you can still tell he's good right? I don't buy the you have to have a good QB thing to know if a WR is good. I can see a guy get open. I can see a guy run his routes. Even a bad QB like Mitch will make enough good passes to allow a WR to do something. AR did go 1,000 yards plus even with DSM handicapping him.

Hell he might be better than what we've seen so far

 

[coolio]

I think we haven't had good drafts for the last two years. But Ridley has barely played for whatever reason, so we don't know yet. Feel like he played like 10% of snaps only, and in 9% of that time Mitch already decided he was throwing to Arob

 

[BaBaBlacksheep]

Likely so. But you still know he’s good now.... even with Mitch as the QB.

Yeah, I hear ya. I think ant mill is pretty good and could be even better. He’s probably the victim of Trubisky overthrows more than anyone and he didn’t really start to grasp the offense until late in the year. Other than that, not much talent at WR. The way things stand now, I’m hoping they draft one in round 2.

Actually you have this backwards...

 

[bamainatlanta]

Ridley ended up in the Nagy doghouse very early in the season and sat on the bench until the midget Gabriel was pretty much done for the year. Ridley & Miller had the nerve to challenge Nagy on route running in practice in camp--Bears Bar Room covered this in one of their podcasts.

What specifically about route running?

 

[Menchifus]

What specifically about route running?

I believe it was about dummy routes. Routes where you know you have no chance of getting the ball.

Still don't know about our QB's potential because of our oline and run game.

JK.

Ridley would have to play first in order for us to evaluate him.

Our HC is too busy giving it to Patterson in the wildcat, running Cohen up the middle, and the QB would just overthrow him by 10 yards anyway.

They had differing philosophies regarding on how to run routes.
