He’ll probably be mid at best like everyone else in this team
He’s all we have so I expect him to break 1k yards. Career season idk but he should have a good year.
He probably will have a career year doesn’t matter who’s at QB. More years removed from not playing rust should be off. Body hasn’t had the wear down like other WR’s due to lack of playing.
If they can get on the same page with some chemistry hel yeaaa he could he was open a lot and our QBs missed him or cough cough he dropped the ball
Cam has shown whoever plays slot will have a great year. That’s not Ridley’s position
Personal goal for Ridley is 1k+ yards with 8+ tds. Think it’s realistic seeing the season he had with Levis, and I think that’s what we need also to justify his salary
Cam gunna be a rookie and y’all already having too high expectations.
If he can throw for 3,000 yards 15 TD’s and 15 picks it’s a great season.
Go look at Josh Allen rookie season
Didn’t know Ward had the cure for Butterfingers…
Ridley had 1374 yds and 9 TDs in ATL in 2020. Call me pessimistic but I doubt bro will reach 1400 yds with a rookie QB. Should still be a good fit though We definitley need to add a true X-reciever to help him shine. Maybe Ayomanor, Harris, Bryant or Lockett?
This sub has hit new levels of insanity regarding Cam Ward. He is not even close to a sure thing as a prospect. Could he be really good? Yes. Could he be a rookie who struggles? Absolutely yes.
Our livelihood depends on it
If we go into the year without a starting X WR (preferably one that can block and start on the LoS so Ridley can play off ball), then I’d expect Ridley is going to struggle to get 1000 yards.
Realistically teams will just double cover Ridley as he’d be our only threat.
If we secure a good – great X WR in the 2nd like Higgins or Elic Ayomanor, then I’d feel more confident that Ridley won’t always get double teamed and will be in his preferred starting position more often.
If we secure a top end slot in the 2nd like Jaylin Noel or Luther Burden that is fast enough to be another deep threat, I’d feel less confident but it should still be “good enough” to stretch the field and make a deep ball a serious threat.
It won’t get us the most out of Ridley though as it would mean he’s starting on the line and has to deal with immediate press/db contact which he’s not great at dealing with.
I think it’s definitely possible. He and levis were not on the same page at all for the first half of the season and he still came away with a 1000 yard season.
With our newly revamped O line if he doesn’t have a better year we will know we made a mistake at QB. Ridley may have been open last year but when you have a sieve of an o line that doesn’t allow plays to develop and QB to operate it’s impossible to produce. This thread continues to baffle me in that no one gets just how BAD our line was last year and they put all the blame on our QB play. Most people on this thread have absolutely zero football IQ.

Survey says: probably not

Depends if Ridley drops every pass.
