I cannot recall such a shitty trade for a decent player that contributes

Basically Robby Anderson+ trade. Johnson is a better player but similar circumstances were incoming, IMO.

No real reason for us to fret about it. It was either this or keep him around to create more and more drama until he got released. That's not a better alternative.

Davante Adamas is a ALL PRO, likely future HOF and he got traded for a 3rd round pick. Johnson is not even top 15 WR in the league, temper your expectations. 

 

Wash got a 3rd for Jahan Dotson and he definitely not as good as Johnson.

A pick is a pick. This is the smart move.

He isn't an elite player, he went after multiple teams had filled their need and he wasn't happy to be here. 

There wasn't much to negotiate about. 

It’s a meaningless swap. The guy we’d get in the 6th is probably the same guy we’ll get late 5th.

Also, on a day when Kirk (possible alternative to Diontae) goes out for the year and Diggs is also out for the year, that’s all we could get? I didn’t even realize Baltimore was interested in another WR but I’m sure Houston is.

I get all of that but there is no way you can realistically convince me there wasnt a team out there that wouldnt even give a 6th for him?  Is he more of a malcontent then Adams?

Like I said, I don't think he was as valuable as people think. If he wasn't he wouldn't have been traded to us for a relatively low price.

He's a talented and high maintenance player that probably creates more BS than he solves in most cases.

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
