What Browns’ deal with RB Carlos Hyde could mean for Giants, Saquon Barkley in NFL draft

It was just announced that the NY Giants signed former Panthers RB Johathan Stewart. Could Saquon Barkley actually slip down the Draft Board from the NO. 1 and 2 Picks?

Will what might be perceived as a weakening of the WR Position necessitate this Mock Draft result:

PICK 14 ... Calvin Ridley - WR, Alabama
``New GM Brian Gutekunst could see Ridley as an immediate-impact player who would fit right in with Aaron Rodgers and contribute at a high level. ``
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0QeNn8jcXk
I've been thinking up to now that the Bears would take him. But with the Bears signing Robinson, that might increase the chances that Ridley will be available when the Packers pick. 3 of the 4 mocks at http://www.nfl.com/draft/2018/mock-d...page-mockdraft have Ridley available when the Packers pick.
I didn't see enough of Ridley to know if he can run routes like Jennings. But I like his ability to adjust to the ball and catch with his hands. I'm guessing he won't be available. Plus, the Packers refuse to surround Rodgers with the players he needs to win a championship. We all know this.
Moore reminds me of Sterling. He's projected late R1. Maybe the Packers can get a two-fer. Draft at their normal spot and then trade up into the mid-late first.
Fixed for you, although I'd argue that that refusal was simply an excuse Thompson used to shed light away from his incompetence. Thank Zeus, the German Shepherd is the antithesis of the Polar Bear, apparently.
Watch the films. There's this thing called Youtube, and it contains alotta awesome Coldplay music vids as well as other stuffs. After watching the films, my brain tells me that Ridley runs routes like Jennings.

** See TOP ** ... How can anyone with any self respect ever respond to the stupidity of sarcasm?
Watched a few Ridley game films. I'm no expert, but he does look a bit Jennings-like. Great hands, good routes, sorta willing blocker, can't break a tackle to save his life. Looks fast against college competition.

A 4.41 Sec. 40 Yard time as a Draft Prospect translates to Speed at WR in the NFL.
I've read some places that some don't think Landry is worthy of an R1. Not sure about that. This time of the year everything is a lie, everyone could sneak into the first round, and team X is smitten with player Y.
That said, I am not a big fan of Vander Esch at 14. I'm coming around on Landry as an OLB/edge guy...he certainly looks like an upgrade from Fackrell. It would not shock me if they waited until R2 or later and loaded up on a couple of edge guys "with upside" and took a CB or WR in the R1. I will be shocked if they don't draft 2-3 players in the secondary. The Jackson kid from Iowa is supposedly more a zone guy so between that and his 40 speed I wonder if he's a bad scheme fit.
As for Quenton Nelson, if you knew without a doubt he was the 2nd coming of Steve Hutchinson you take him at 14 and don't worry about that spot for a decade. Yeah he's a guard but you could do worse than him lined up between Bulaga and Linsley with Jamaal Williams running that side in December at Lambeau.
I disagree. Remember Darius Heyward-Bey? He ran a 4.3 40 yard and looked bad against NFL coverage. I don't particularly care about straight line speed. If you can't change direction, you're dead in the water (Jeff Janis). How fast he moves in space says a lot. A couple profiles of Ridley say he has a hard time shedding bump coverage. Also very Jennings-like.
Your point is well taken based on his slightness of size but generally he's the NO. 1 Ranked WR in this Draft Class.

Featured WR Calvin Ridley is Ranked 16th Overall.
Compare that to:

** Ridley is a fast receiver adept at creating separation. With his quick feet and sudden athleticism, Ridley is a very good route-runner.
** He is tough on defensive backs as he can put his foot in the ground and explode out of cuts. That explosion translates to Ridley also having a second gear to break downfield and is dangerous with the ball in his hands.
** Ridley is a fast route-runner on short to intermediate routes. A nice third-down weapon as a pro to quickly uncover and present an open target for his quarterback.
**With his speed to run by defensive backs, Ridley stretches a defense over the top and is a true deep-threat receiver.
** He has the ability to take a slant to the house or run a go route and fly by defensive backs.
For the NFL, Ridley could fit well as a X -split end - receiver who works along the sideline and challenges teams vertically.
Downside:
Given his smaller frame, his pro team may want to protect him from doing too much work in the middle of the field and sending him across the play. He's listed at 190 pounds, but team sources say that he has weighed-in in the 180s. With that being one factor, some scouts have said they are grading Ridley as a late first-rounder.
He could end up going high out of team need at his premium position, however. ie the Green Bay Packers

I think Ridley has the potential to be a quality WR in the Jennings mold. I think he'll struggle to reliably beat press coverage, and I wouldn't play him in the slot much either. Put him on the outside and use motion, bunch formations, etc. to help him get a free release and he could be dangerous. I wouldn't hate the pick at 14, but I am skeptical this will happen -- signs are pointing to drafting a CB there IMO. If they take a WR in R1 it will be because they traded to get a 2nd pick at the bottom of the round. People seem to like the Moore kid from Maryland...
For the Packers to take Ridley 14th, he'd have to be better than Jennings. He's need to be Marvin Harrison.
Possibly. I don't remember. Also frequently a complaint about college WR is their release against press man coverage.
But as a pro, if not a young player or college guy, his routes were so good and his breaks so quick he separated like no one's business.
So its possible Ridley is like young Jennings, and it would be great if he would improve like Jennings.
Were in a position now of such need and a real addition on 'D'.
The Packers will in all sense pick 'D' at NO. 14.
Our situation at CB is really bad.

" ...Jets acquired the No. 3 pick in the 2018 Draft from the Colts in exchange for the No. 6 pick, the No. 37 pick, the No. 49 pick and a second-round pick in 2019. ..."
one thing that no one is really talking about as far as WR's are concerned is monty
i gotta imagine he's moving back to full time WR this season
gotta thank TT and fat mike for retarding his growth at WR. before the move to RB, monty looked like he could take over the cobb role in the offense
