Calvin Ridley Fantasy

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley is a fine play in Week 2's matchup against the Cowboys. Being the WR2 on the team and commanding a decent target share, the 25-year-old recorded nine receptions for 130 yards and two scores on 12 targets in a terrific Week 1 showing. The youngster has developed quite a rapport with Matt Ryan and is now one of the most important pieces on this offense. He should be considered a high WR2 for this Week 2 tilt.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley put up a massive stat line in a 38-25 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Ridley caught nine of 12 passes for 130 yards and two scores, the third multi-touchdown game of his career. Ridley's 12 targets were tied for the team lead with Julio Jones and Russell Gage (groin) as Atlanta ramped up their passing attack in an effort to make a comeback. If the 25-year-old gets volume like this- which could be likely given the way Atlanta's defense played- he should have no trouble smashing his ADP. He'll take on a Dallas Cowboys team with some question marks in the secondary. It's a great spot for Ridley to stay hot.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley is in line for a good day against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 1. Ridley figures to matchup with 2019 Pro Bowler Shaquill Griffin, who was the Seahawks' most improved player according to Pro Football Focus. The good thing for Ridley is, Atlanta moved him into the slot occasionally in 2019, so perhaps he can take advantage of different looks against Seattle's defense. The high over/under of this game and the pass-happy nature of the Falcons' offense makes Ridley a good start as a WR2 for Week 1 with the potential for more.
