I do not get the hate for this guy.  He was a solid player.  The talent has now improved at the receiver position.  He did his job when he was here....IMO.

I don't think it was hate at him himself but the fact he made the team because he was Richardson's neighbor, that's how this team was ran and that frustrated people.

He didn't make the the team because he was Richardson's neighbor.  He made it because he was the fifth or sixth best receiver the coaching staff had to choose from.  Its not like we cut someone who went on to a stellar career with some other team so we could keep Bersin.  The issue was not Bersin or Richardson.  It was that the front office did a poor job drafting and signing talent at the WR position.  Its a problem we have had for 12 or more years, well before Bersin got here.  The last really good receiver we drafted was Steve Smith.  The Jury is still out on Samuel and Moore, but it looks promising.

Agreed. That dude was clutch when we needed him.

    • Seriously? A CB who missed all that time on his rookie deal and was also a top 10 pick when the guys picked right before and after have been studs. A RB our GMs tried to replace with FAs and 2nd rounders and two backup level players is one of the best drafts we’ve ever had? I’d argue that the 2011/2012 drafts were better even with just Cam and Luke/Norman. Here’s the drafts I think were better: 2017, maybe 2018, 2015, 2013, 2011, 2012, 2008, 2007, 2001, 2002 (just Pepp) I’m hoping 2025 is way better as well. Honestly, we’ve kind of sucked at drafting overall and that’s the only reason you can even remotely call Horn, Hubbard, Tremble and BC a good draft let alone one of our best ever. Good teams that draft well would laugh at that as a great draft. If you want to look at say the 2023 Lions draft, you’d get 4 stud/above average/average starters not just 3 replaceable starters/backups and a top 10 pick that missed half his games. That’s a draft that helps turn a team into a playoff team. Our record since our 2021 draft is 19-49. A best ever draft doesn’t go 19-49.
    • I remember when football was great.    Wasn't this century.  
    • Bingo. You can't pay that type of player elite franchise QB money. That average starter type player can excel when he's surrounded by top shelf talent in a great offensive system but pay him elite QB money and you're going to really struggle to surround him with the type of talent you need to carry him. You pay those elite franchise QBs because they can carry your roster. You can't pay guys who have to be carried. Bryce showed glimpses down the stretch last year. I really hope he keeps building on that. But before we back up the Brinks truck he needs to show that he's the type of QB who can lift up and carry the offense because when you pay those guys that's what they're gonna have to do.
