From the episode

Calvin Ridley coming off the injury and he's not good. Calvin Ridley is almost 32 years old now... He's there for name. He's got the veteran deference. Exactly. Yep. That's it. That's not enough, man. I don't think that's enough... I'm not drafting any Calvin Ridley this year. No way.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalBust

Matt Kelley explicitly states 'I'm not drafting any Calvin Ridley this year. No way.' He dismisses Ridley as 'almost 32 years old now' and argues he is 'there for name' and 'veteran deference' but that 'that's not enough' to compete with younger options like Alec Eominer for the Titans' WR3 role. Kelley prefers 'the young kid who's going to give me a shot at putting up 25, 30 points' over Ridley's limited upside.
