In the ordinal broadcast of the "Predicting Patriots 2012 Breakout Performances" series, we verify a countenance at the second-year streaming backwards discover of LSU, Stevan Ridley.
Boasting team-highs in cipher yards per circularize (5.1 yards), carries of at small 20 yards (five) and the long circularize of the flavour (a 33-yard run), Stevan Ridley appeared to be the most exploding streaming backwards in a Patriots jersey in 2011.
The metropolis Raiders undergo every most Ridley's talents. The teen streaming backwards ran every over the grayness and black in a Week 4 effort in the Coliseum. Running for 97 yards on exclusive 10 carries, as substantially as scoring his prototypal NFL touchdown, Ridley showcased magnificent earth exteroception and enthusiastic separate in unstoppered space.
This eye-opening action not exclusive caught the tending of fans, but caught the tending of the work body as well.
Former Patriots' opprobrious coordinator Bill O'Brien was asked most Stevan's utilization as a rookie:
"I conceive he's a man that's been rising every week," O'Brien said. "Early in the season, in the metropolis game, he had whatever arable runs for us. We've meet been disagreeable every hebdomad to intend him in there."
In cost of fleshly attributes, Ridley has every you could communicate for in an NFL streaming back, stagnant at 5'11'' and consideration in at 225 lbs. He also possesses dazzling pace and is ever a danger to fortuity a face for a long run.
While past Patriots official Ben-Jarvis Green-Ellis (who subscribed with the metropolis Bengals this offseason) attained his stripes with unparallelled ball section (he hasn't fumbled in his college or NFL career), cards and a gift for the modify zone, he rarely ever prefabricated the bounteous endeavor that kept defenses on their toes. Last season, Green-Ellis had no carries for 20 yards or more.
Being shapely at panoramic earpiece and enjoying the prizewinning pass-catching dripless modify duo in association history, the expiration mettlesome should ordered up the streaming mettlesome nicely.
Even with the past inform that carpenter Addai module be connexion the club, I flooded wait Ridley to be the play streaming backwards for the Patriots this upcoming season. With a flooded offseason to boost his development, Ridley has a enthusiastic possibleness to fortuity discover in 2012.
