Diontae Johnson failed to catch his only target in the Ravens’ Week 12 win over the Chargers.
Johnson continues to be buried on the depth chart behind Zay Flowers and Rashod Bateman, with the team not even giving him usable snaps on a weekly basis due to their emphasis on heavy personnel groupings. His usage in Baltimore is quite the head-scratcher considering the team trading for his services before the trade deadline this year.

Quite the head scratcher? They got him for nothing and only planned to use him in obviously 3rd and long plays. I'm still going to laugh if they win the Superbowl and we end up moving 1 pick for him. 100% a Panthers thing to happen

Why? He was going to get cut if no one offered anything. He was terrible for the locker room and helping our QB develop. He obviously isn’t as good as some on here thought judging by his stats on the Ravens.

Giving up on routes causing interceptions and blaming everyone else on the team is pretty much demanding a trade.

That's just him and why his trade value wasn't what some Huddlers expected.

The Morgan criticism over this isn't very intelligent.

Im about 99% sure he told both Dan and Dave, he was not going to let BY ruin his free agent year and refused to play.

 

He had a mystery injury BYs first game back in Denver. 

 

He's the new age player- all him, only him, pay me.

I like to think the ravens said hey we aren't going to give you much and we're only to play him if someone gets hurt and Morgan took the deal with slightly better ones on the table as a fug you to johnson. He's not getting a big contract next year like he probably would have if he stayed here

I think talent wise he is good as a #2 possession receiver. As a human being, he is an annoying prick and I'm glad to see him not touching the ball one iota with Baltimore.

And his stats aren't good for the Ravens because they run a ton of 2 te/2 RB sets and don't go 3 wr much because of how dominant of a run team they are

The Steelers were ready to move on from him and they still need WR help. He is good at running routes, but only when he wants to. He isn’t going to bang through traffic on his routes. Instead he is going to stop his route and cause a TO. That’s a terrible trait for a WR to have. How can you ever trust that as a QB?

Comp picks will widen the gap

    • I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.
    • This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.
    • to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
