hes been excellent over the last four games. Seems like the game has slowed down for him. Stewart, Calvin, and Foster should be the best WR unit in the SEC next year

I think they tried to make him the guy and it didn't work, force feeding him to generate production. Resulted in some drops and unproductive screens/sweeps.

He's come into his own, he plays like a RB out there. He's got great burst, and is very good on contact...

Exactly... he is not a #1 receiver. The good news is, we don't need him to be. Honestly, I think he would be unreal in the old Christion Jones role.

Also, hope Cam Sims stays around. His body language didn't look too good during the game, but hopefully he can stop pouting and carve out a role.

Ridley/Stewart/Foster
Sims/Charlot/Kief

That should make for a beautiful rotation going into fall camp...

Yep. IMO one of the most significant offensive adjustments of the season was replacing Stewart with Ridley as the deep ball guy. Tried numerous times to hit Stewart deep in first few games to no avail. Ridley has just been better at making adjustments on the deep ball but it's obvious Stewart has a lot of talent and has come up big several times in big games of late
