    Juju was really good for the Steelers and I was disappointed to see him go.

    His knee issues are well known and because of that I don’t think he is ever getting the big contract that looked to be in the offing for him a few years ago. I think he will be a useful journeyman for the rest of his career and I wouldn’t be shocked to see him land back in Pittsburgh at some stage.

    No thanks. Smarted off about learning offense for the first time at KC. The faces are getting fresh for the Steelers. Let's keep heading that way.

    Tik Tok Goofball Ju Ju shows up to the stadium tonight wearing..............a kilt. What a dork. So glad he's gone. Could have CTE already which is sad.

    That 2nd half just made JuJu out of the Steelers price range for a #3 WR next year.

    Maybe in 3 or 4 more years his name will surface again, going to assume that he signs a 4-year deal worth $40 million this offseason.

    Glad he got a SB, good for him. Now that he got that out of the way, come back to the Steelers :lolol:

    Those damn knees worry me though.

    He really would not be a good fit. Best case scenario he’d be the number 3. He’d make too much money for a WR3 and he wouldn’t be happy with the lack of touches.

    Ran some very good designed routes. He’s not going to be able to do it with the Steelers

    That's because they perfected the 4 yard pass. Noodle arm loved it.

    JuJu wasn't the problem not having Patrick Mahomes is the problem.

    When you win that Tik Tok and other bull crap doesn't matter but if your just average and not contending for Super Bowls then it matters.

    JuJu would be wise to return to KC and stay with Mahomes, when he's surronded by better talent ( SEE AB) then he's much better. If he is gonna be a dependent #1 WR you will be vastly disappointed.

    The question is how badly do they want to keep him. He may get much more lucrative offers elsewhere.

    Then he should Jump on it. JuJu has never really had a big money deal in his career.

    I think he understands where he is in his career. This isn't a Claypool thinks he's a top-5 receiver situation. Plus, our WR room needs a leader. I would look to someone who is a great locker room presence, understands that Pickens is the guy, and can mentor some young guys. Landry and Watkins are other names that kinda intrigue me in the same manner. We love re-treads and the players all liked JuJu. I can see it happening for the right price.

    Assuming Joe Burrow and JaMarr Chase dont blow up the cap. For that matter, Tee Higgins already wants to be paid number one WR money according to many sources; those within the Cincy Faithful doubly so. Granted, this is not going to affect Cincy and much less Joe Burrow much but I don't see a scenario in which Burrow, Chase and Higgins are all on the same team.

    Regarding what you said @Blast Furnace, I wouldn't be shocked if Andy Weidl looked elsewhere. Part of Weidl's Draft Strategy aims to look for WR's with some serious speed to burn. Alex Kozora has an excellent article about much of his draft tendencies here as well.

    He's a Tik Tok clown. See the picture of him in a kilt yesterday? You can have at him.

    Juju is not coming back here. Why would he? Nothing has changed since he left.

    I don't see JuJu wanting to return to Pittsburgh, why would he want to play in Canada's JV offense again :shrug:?

    Why would we want a guy that wears kilts and prioritizes tik tok before games? My God its time for The Steelers to get back to nasty and leave all the nonsense behind !!!

    So, what if he wore a kilt? You think the Chiefs care, he helped them win the game. When Tomlin told JuJu to stop that dancing on the logo crap he stopped.

    He's a clown. Glad he's gone. That's all we need......bring back a receiver that specializes in short routes. Good riddance.
