Calvin Ridley Trade Odds: Can Titans Retain Receiver?

It has been a tough year for the Tennessee Titans, and wide receiver Calvin Ridley’s struggles haven’t helped. After racking up over 1,000 receiving yards in his first year with the Titans last season, Ridley has 290 this season in six games. The NFL trade deadline is Nov. 4 and Tennessee (1-7), a weekly underdog at US betting apps, should look to pick up extra draft capital.
Bookies.com veteran oddsmaker Adam Thompson has put together hypothetical betting odds for which team Ridley will be with following the deadline.

Pittsburgh Steelers (+300)
Pittsburgh needs help at wide receiver, and acquiring Ridley would give QB Aaron Rodgers a pair of sure hands to catch touchdowns as the Steelers try to win the AFC North. They have the draft capital the Titans would require in a trade if they decide to move Ridley, making Pittsburgh a natural trade partner for a potential transaction.
Buffalo Bills (+350)
The Bills were favored to win the AFC East, but the New England Patriots have been a big surprise and are giving Buffalo a run for its money this year. One of the Bills' biggest problems is a lack of reliable wide receivers for MVP QB Josh Allen. He could use some reinforcements, and Ridley would be a great fit with the team.

New England Patriots (+450)
The New England Patriots have been one of the biggest surprises in the league this season, as they are on pace to win the AFC East and return to the playoffs. They could use some extra help at wide receiver heading into the playoffs, so picking up Ridley makes sense.
Tennessee Titans (+500)
The Titans are one of the worst NFL teams, but Ridley is a talented wide receiver despite his down year (his 290 receiving yards leads the team, though he has missed two games). Rookie QB Cam Ward needs a reliable RW option, so, though getting a draft pick in a trade makes more sense, it’s not the end of the world for Ridley to stay with the team.
New York Giants (+700)
The New York Giants are not going to make the playoffs this year, but the team has the potential to bounce back next season. Acquiring a talented WR like Ridley would help the Giants this season and beyond, giving young QB Jaxson Dart a veteran to throw to.
Philadelphia Eagles (+750)
The Philadelphia Eagles won the Super Bowl last year, but they have had their ups and downs this season. Acquiring a veteran WR like Ridley would certainly help their team out as they look to make another deep postseason push. Philly has +1100 odds at DraftKings to repeat as Super Bowl champs.
The Field (+900)
Ridley is expected to be one of the hottest names available at the NFL trade deadline, so several other teams are viable options to acquire him in a trade.
