"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. 

It's getting to the point where a Steelers receiver should be on no one's target list. You're just asking for trouble.

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.  

Good point. Smith may have been a headache but he made it worth it every Sunday

Someone somewhere is still thinking they can get him on a bargain deal and it will work for them.

Told ya there was someone. Not going to lie, I secretly thought it too. Haha

Until you think about how much better Bryce was without him.

I'm surprised his agent hasn't fired him. 

 

Johnson ain't no broke player

Prime Smitty wouldn't have gotten this many chances. Maybe Moss or Megatron. Maybe. Antonio Brown and Josh Gordon were much better than Diontae could ever dream of being.

Smith is better than Calvin Johnson.

    • By all indications, the surgery was "minor." I know with all surgeries and especially back surgery there can be complications, but I think the whole time Tremble did this with the expectation he would be able to be back for Week 1 It sounds like he will be ready to start back in team drills next week. He's a veteran who knows the system so I'm sure that helps. I still can't imagine he will play a normal workload early on though 
    • Maybe. He was pretty good in college before a bad injury. He had a good preseason last year as a UDFA in Washington and was on their practice squad all year so they obviously saw something worth developing. He signed a futures deal with the Panthers earlier this year, and everything about him has been increasingly positive. Tremayne has gotten a decent amount of time with the ones, and a lot with the twos for someone that doesn't have a chance. He's the only other 6'4" plus WR on the team, plays ST, and is a more natural backup to the X receiver position than David Moore. That was my thinking behind it. But he may well end up as one of the last roster cuts. If so, I do hope they can bring him back to the PS. But I personally think there's a good chance he could be claimed given his ST ability and what hes shown at WR.
    • That was my thought originally, but so many of the beat writers have mentioned keeping 7 WRs in conversations that I went with that, at least for the purposes of this projection. But you're right that historically defensive guys who were standouts at ST have tradionally gotten those last spots
