Its the one group who should benefit the most from the new staff. THe HC and OC have WRC roots with great results. 

 

Plus Ive been hearing glowing reports about TMJ, whom I have gave up on. I mean this is it for him and a couple others here, no excuses for WRs. 

Lol. "Glowing reports?" From where? The same sources that just gave glowing reports about Ian Thomas?

Twatter and yes to the other......Am I buying them= No. I think one of them " I see a new different TMJ...." 

I admit they made me pause for 8.7 seconds(just hey there's still a tiny bit of hope...), but nah its been 3 full years with weak out-put on weak units.  I don't see him making the roster even with injuries hitting other WRs.

Mingo last season didn't look ready to be an outside receiver - he looked like he could be a decent slot guy.  But due to team needs he got forced into a role he wasn't ready for and had passes forced at him all season.  He is being completely overlooked by most entities but I think he still has a ton of upside - I hope he sees a huge upswing this year.

TMJ I am just sick of hearing about - right or wrong mentally I am just done.  He has had 3 seasons where they hype him up and shows absolutely nothing during the season but drops and disappearance.  Might be unfair but I can't waste brain power on him anymore - I want him pushed to the PS and let Coker get his reps.  That kid might be amazing and deserves the same chance TMJ has wasted for 3 friggin years.

Well he may make it because his price tag is cheap and his money is guaranteed anyway.

I believe he is just a less impressive Dwayne Jarrett.

in regards to DJ, people seem to forget that the steelers got tired of his poo and shipped him out for nothing.  He is a malcontent in a contract year, what could possibly go wrong?  He was a dip poo under tomlin when they were winning, whats it going to look like this year with a first year head coach sitting at 2-7?

 

Ill get the popcorn ready

Listening to JC Horn's press conference he had a lot of praise for X. 

Said that he is tough to cover because of how big and strong he is. Said you can 'feel' his strength when he presses on you. 

Thats pretty big praise from a CB like Horn. 

I like it!!

We have been drafting Keary Colberts and Dwayne Jarretts for 20 frickin years.  Also remember Drew Carter from Ohio St?  He's going to be healthy this year and blow the top off the NFL.

I swear, our WR drafting history in the last 25 years has to be the least impressive in the NFL.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
