    Watkins could be a Raven after losing out on JuJu.

    I did not see that, most posters have been saying do not use him in that role because of the drop in the SB, I have no idea if he ever caught a pass or not...but was it Hawkins we used last year? That did not work out so well as I recall.

    Even after looking at the numbers I have a tough time believing he will make the team. I could be wrong but for all the hype and splash plays he made in Pittsburgh during the preseason he never really translated it to gameday.

    Nobody with a clue about football would argue that Smith-Schuster is better than Brown. He isn't even close. He had one year with big numbers, and that was when he had stars all around him. Brown was dominant no matter what he had around him. He was the best receiver in the game for a long time. Smith-Schuster had one year that maybe you could argue he was among the top 12 or 15. Maybe.

    They need help on special teams. He will make that team.

    True Dat. But I think Ju Ju would put up better numbers with Good Ben and a decent running game. He got stuck with this current chit we have, Bad Ben and no running game.

    No. Ab was different. Juju isn't fit to carry the load as the #1 guy. His ability to separate isn't there. He isn't the route runner ab is and doesn't have the speed AB has. He's a possession guy.

    Give him Bell, Good Ben and the WR Corp AB had and the numbers would clearly be better. But, I see you just want to argue and be a contrarian. No time for that bruh, I'll move on.

    Nobody, same guy. Brooke was slow to report this, it was originally reported three days ago. I was thinking it was someone else.

    Give him the best team around him that Brown ever had and Smith-Schuster still wouldn't have consistently reached Brown's level. He's a lesser player. It is inarguable among the sane. Brown in his prime would have put up insane numbers in the 2020 Pittsburgh offense.

    Speaking of A.B., why is he not on a team yet?! The Bucs were supposed to bring him back yet they have not. Interesting indeed.


    At the very least @Blast Furnace@Blast Furnace, JuJu is gainfully employed compared to "Mr. Big Chest!!" :lolol:

    He performed without all that except he had ben. He was all pro with Markus Wheaton as his counterpart and no bell in 2015.. and the year without all of them was the year he had his Best season which was 136,1834, and 10 tds. He performed better with the less help around him
