So long JUJU!

And they still blew a 21-3 lead at home in the AFCCG .

 

The deal is for $3M with incentives to $10.75M. It will be interesting to see what he needs to do to achieve the incentives. I wonder if Ray-Ray will earn more with his 2/$10.4M contract from the 9ers.

 

Not a shoe in. Afc is a blood bath

 

Yeah their defense is suspect. Not sold on them for the sb. But mahomes always gives you a chance

 

What position do you play on the team?

 

Freakin laughable.
Heath is in the next room and needs a word.

 

Maybe he never saw Heath play.

 

I personally will miss him and wish him nothing but the best! One of the most light hearted players the team has had in a long... long time. He will prove his worth to Kansas City soon yet.


Once again, thank you for everything JuJu!! May you find happiness and best wishes!!!

 

I always kind of knew but kept out hope that he would stay, but now that it's done: I now think drafting a WR is in the cards

 

If there is one team that deserves a little of a leash, it's the Steelers because they always find good receivers. But, juju was one of maybe 2 people who I considered a leader on the Steelers in the last 4 years. He could have been a Hines Ward type if he could have had a little more help at qb. Unfortunately we will never know now.

 

I don't know if he officially signed yet but still leaving a candle in the window that Cam or TJ call him and say listen kid we need you, give it one more go.

 

Would have been nice to keep him. Oh well. Supposed to be a good year for WR'ers. Claypool really needs to get his sh!t together, if that is even possible.

 

****e load of them in the draft.

 

I was going to say something but nope, just nope. Enjoy fantasy land.

 

I still hope out little hope that Bush and Claypool can get their sh*t together. This whole season could really depend upon those two things solidifying for us. If they can and Trubisky can put together a decent season then we can make some noise. Otherwise, 8-9 or worse.

 

Someone get on the phone to Ryan Switzer.

 

Was my kids favorite player. Say what you will about those who dislike social media, but as a 6 yr old kid hes easy to like and hes done a lot of great things off the field. I do hope one day he gets a multi year deal, but for now hes a less paid kirk cousins of wrs

 

Nah, you have to figure a way to score more in the second half. Key interceptions etc.

 

Well, we have a way of finding WR`s in the draft. Might pick one by end of round 3 now.

 

Really thought he was looking for a multi year deal. Can't believe he took an incentive laden contract with them. One injury that takes him out of a few games and he's not making it with those weapons.

Surprising that the Steelers didn't offer a multi year deal to a guy so young and a veteran in that room! For what he's got minus the incentives, you'd think 8 per year over 3-4 would have done it!

 

I would love to entertain the idea personally. That said, for that to happen, Pittsburgh better bring the House to USC's Pro Day. In addition, should the team move Chase Claypool to the slot (a likely outcome at this point), the team would then have to turn its attention to a Receiver with "DEFCON 1" ability; Jameson Williams the best in the class at that. Drake London theoretically can perform this role but not for Matt Canada's high motion, RPO/Spread Offense. If anything, a Vertical Passing Offe se is what is best for London as having him attack the perimeter periodically is what is going to maximize his skillset early on. Having London consistently guess on finite concepts like timing and rhythm would stymie his development.


Now, I doubt that, even if the team brings the house to Alabama's Pro Day (they likely will as they usually do), Jameson Williams will not be in the teams plans barring a trade up; a preposition I doubt the team intends to follow through with. Now, if not him, Chris Olave is definitley someone I would not mind personally. How come?!



Take everything you like about Diontae Johnson and crank it up to 11. That is essentially, more or less, what Olave is. Not only can he perform in any Offense... he can perform in any role; Deep Threat included. Him and Diontae would be one HELL of a duo for Olave is the best Route Runner in the class.... and it is not even close. Whoever is a close second.... is not a close second.

 

They did have a way and a way of developing them. Losing Drake and going though the last 2 guys seemed to be setbacks with them all this past year.

My guess is that Drake may have had a hand in the draft decisions that turned into gold.

 

An interesting side note

This is not confirmed, but likely

JUJU is only getting 3 mill this year

There are 2 types of incentives

LIKELY TO BE EARNED
and
NOT LIKELY TO BE EARNED

both are based on last year, but LTB has to he figured into the current cap but NLTB goes on next season

So if you scored 5 TD they look at it that you are LIKELY to s]core 5 this year so that incentive money has to be available at all times this season

However if you scored 5 last year and your incentive is 8.... that money is not count until next year.

So the fact that Juju was out with an injury last season....all his numbers will be low.... so the Chiefs could have listed that 7 mill in incentives as NLTB.... so Juju is virtually guaranteed his 10 as long as he stays healthy but the Chiefs can pay him over 2 years with only a 3 mill hit this year


At that low of a number,c really feels like either he didn't want to come back or the Steelers did not want him back
