If Calvin Ridley Is Gone, What Receiver Could Ravens Draft at 16? Mel Kiper Says 'Nobody'

Kiper knows Baltimore needs playmakers at the offensive skill positions, and he tried to fit one with the Ravens at pick No. 16.

Only problem is he had the draft’s top wide receiver – Alabama’s Calvin Ridley – off the board at No. 8. So if Ridley is gone, who’s the playmaker there for the Ravens?

“That was the problem I ran into. Nobody,” Kiper said. “I just didn’t see anybody worthy of being the 16th pick at wide receiver to give them – or at tight end.”

Kiper has Texas A&M wide receiver Christian Kirk going at No.
