The days of Calvin Ridley repping a No. 18 Atlanta Falcons jersey could be in the rearview mirror as several NFL experts suspect he is looking for a “fresh start” elsewhere.
If that is the case, that means that the Falcons will be on the search for a trade partner this offseason–meaning they will want to get the best deal they can get for giving up their No. 1 wide receiver.
So, the big question is, what is Ridley worth?
Ridley Might Be Worth a 1st-Round Pick
Personally, I am no expert when it comes to trades and in this special scenario where the Falcons’ star stepped away in the midst of the 2021 season.
Since Ridley didn’t play out the entire year, his trade value may have gone down––making him a potential bargain for buyers.
However, I asked those who have been hanging around the NFL a lot longer than I have.
There were some mixed responses.
