"Former Steelers Receiver" is producing the same kind of vibes as "Florida Man".  

I don't even want to hear about George Pickens and how he's a great target for the Panthers. 

Yeah, you already know Pickens is a head case grabbing headlines like these in a season or two.

We were going to cut Jackson anyway, it was a swap of two players that were on their way out of their respective teams.

We would have been better off saving the cap space and not trading for Diontae in the first place. I don’t know for sure but since we made that trade before the draft, McConkey may have been off the board as too similar to Johnson.

Not sure how CJ would do what Lamar Jackson couldn't.

The Texans were saying all the right things about DJ, dude just doesn't have it.

The amount of money Diontae lost after finding ways to not make it work with Lamar + CJ is insane.

Can't hold his time with Bryce against him given how bad Bryce played weeks 1 + 2, but to fail with Lamar and CJ in the same season...? Big yikes.

You have to be Steve Smith good to have the kind attitude Johnson does and get away with it lol

Say what you want about Steve Smith, but when it came to putting in the work and getting better and being ready on game day, he was extremely professional.  I don't  think that was true with Johnson.

    • Pretty sure that a QB contract payday is all the competition any QB in this league needs, I don't think a competent backup is going to make them play any harder when the current situation wouldn't warrant the contract extension yet anyways. Your opening point in this post is also the problem, "Bryce has shown signs of improving", but that's still all he's shown, and he's only showing that because of just how bad he was to start his career. If he played like last season from the beginning and never improved one bit, then I actually think more fans would be ready to move on from him, which is what's weird.  It's like going from one of the biggest draft busts of all time into the 25th best QB in the league over 3 years means he deserves a long term $40+ million a year contract extension. Improvement shouldn't be the goal when the result of said improvement is still bottom of the league levels.
    • Yeah, but we've seen him do it. Just not often. I think that's the reason for the taller WRs. Would likely be a problem finding someone like Jimmy Horn in the mess.
    • And the Rams, Seattle, Patriots, Green Bay, Jaguars and the Bills who all made the playoffs and in case you forgot, Seattle and the Patriots played in the SB. By any measure, that's pretty brutal.
