Eli Raridon has legitimate three-down ability, with a well-rounded game that will help offenses in the run game and add explosives through the air. He’s got the size and speed to be a mismatch against most defenders down the field, and he’s improving his functional strength to create movement on them.
Raridon is a former 4-star recruit who has spent his entire four-year career with the Fighting Irish and is seeing his role in the offense expand in the offense.
Coming into the season, Raridon amassed 16 catches for 141 yards and three touchdowns, but he’s been used as a seam weapon and mismatch for Notre Dame quarterback CJ Carr this season. His length and frame give him a leg up on defenders with the ball in the air and as he continues to improve his blocking technique, he’ll be a useful tool in an NFL offensive arsenal.
