    Ok this is really thin but now that I have your attention, would you want him back?

    Would be a good vet presence and Bernard does remind me of him but not sure what he has left to offer on the field anymore, 2 shot knees but always did like JuJu and will always have a soft spot for that hit on Burfict.

    I’d welcome him back for depth. It does mean we part way with Wilson cause I don’t see us cutting a 2nd and 4th rounder

    No. He needs to move on to his life's work; Dancin' with the Stars...

    i'm hoping AT perry shows something. i loved juju but we need to keep evolving. Skowronek i believe could be as good as juju right now. DK, Pittman, Bernard, Perry, Skowronek, Wetjen. :cool:

    I liked Juju. Wanted him to stay, but understood why he left (tired of only being given a RB's route tree).

    But I don't want him back.

    We already let the combination of scheme / lack of talent / QB who doesn't throw to rookies ruin Wilson's chance of being a contributor. I don't want to do more to take that chance away from Bernard too.

    I think if Juju came back to the Steelers, Rodgers would want him as WR3. And Bernard would get pushed down the depth chart (or at least get fewer targets).

    He's really just a guy now. So even if he were just WR4, I'd rather leave spots open for guy younger players who might have a future with the team. Even if that's only Wilson.

    No. His best days are long gone. Just keep rebuilding. It’s been a few years now, but I remember listening to the Ramon Foster show and they talked about juju and his knees. Apparently juju needed surgery to repair something minor, but wouldn’t have the procedure done. Instead he chose to have his knee drained on a weekly basis

    Is there anyone left on the offense for his return to be a reunion?
