[QUOTE="Sunshinepacker, post: 771152, member: 9033"] You just said it yourself, Ridley is two years older than the typical early entrant and a year older than the normal senior. That's an issue when his main selling point is "route runner". Well, yeah, he SHOULD be better at that since he's had an extra year, or two, to improve that skill verse the normal rookie. To me, that means his upside is more limited. I'd rather take a guy with worse route running, but elite physical skills, with the idea that he can be taught to run routes in the NFL in a year or two and then, at the same age, he'll be a better player than Ridley. I'm not anti-Ridley, just anti-Ridley in the first round. I don't really think any receiver is worth a top-15 pick this year when guys like Landry, Hurst, James, Smith, etc. might be there on defense where the Packers need the most help. [/QUOTE]
