Report: Desmond Ridder Visiting Multiple Teams in Top-20

The former Bearcat has quite the busy travel schedule over the next week.

CINCINNATI — Desmond Ridder has plenty of NFL team visits on his plate over the next week. Ian Rapoport reports that Ridder is visiting the Steelers and Seahawks, in addition to another top-10 visit with the Carolina Panthers. He is meeting with Pittsburgh on Thursday, Carolina on Tuesday, and Seattle this coming Wednesday.

All of this adds credence to the idea that Ridder could get picked in the first 20 selections. "Based on what I'm hearing—I would not be surprised if Desmond Ridder is a top-20 pick," ESPN's Matt Miller tweeted on Wednesday.

Ridder is the consensus 33rd-best player in the draft and the No. 3 QB. The passer's most popular mock draft home over the past week has been with the Detroit Lions at No. 32. He is going there in 14% of mock drafts.

4/13 UPDATE: Ridder completed his Pittsburgh and Carolina visits and is currently visiting the Seahawks. According to Tom Pelissero, it's Seattle's only known QB visit.
