    He will be out of the Steelers price range. If he took a reasonable deal I'd be all for it.

    Why?
    I'm confused, no one ever wants to come here.
    I think he's playing the Bills for money.

    Brown is a 4.3 guy Chase is a 4.4 guy... The Team could use the speed and draft a slot WR or move DJ ..If the price is right then I say go for it..

    I feel that James Washington can fill the slot role. A cheap signing of a vet and possibly draft one, but they just resigned Ray Ray McCloud who is a weapon and should see more snaps and who has the quicks.

    I am not concerned about Claypool, was a rook and came in gang busters and fizzled a bit hitting the rookie wall. Just watch, this kid with another year under his belt will dominate. I see a big year from Diontae Johnson as well.

    Kick the tires on this one, with JuJu probably gone much needed experienced
    depth at the WR position.

    If Ben could throw an accurate deep ball he would have been OROY.

    Claypool - yes. Washington - probably. Johnson- ? McCloud - maybe. JuJu - not so much.

    Claypool is the only real deep threat on the roster.

    I wouldn't even say Claypool is an elite deep threat. He is no Mike Wallace.

    Like him or not, can't knock his numbers when he played for the Steelers. Fact.

    I'm actually excited to see more of James Washington this year.

    I've been pulling for him to get more passes thrown his way for a while now.

    Barring injury, I think we have 3 good solid receivers at the position with DJ, Claypool, and JW. Add Ebron in the mix once his catch percentage rate increases << sorry hard on him as him and DJ need to be focusing on catching drills this off-season.

    I wouldn't spend $on a FA Wr. I'd focus that money on defense especially cornerback as we have trouble drafting at this position.

    Truth. Hopefully they can sign Sutton which should start to suppress the curse of drafting one. Layne not so much.

    The Steelers kept the right receiver.

    Not a position of priority. No reason to sign one of the first damn UFA's to hit the market. In fact, they can acquire depth through someone else's practice squad and by bringing in some UDFA's, in other words cheap alternatives. They have much more urgent needs to spend what precious little cap money they have at other positions. Who the hell cares how fast this guy is, anyway? What the hell has he done? Darius Heyward-Bey was fast, too. Golden Shower or whoever the hell? Tate? P!ss on him, too.

    I didn't say they didn't, just not knocking the performance. Giving credit where it was due.

    .... and Ben's questionable arm strength and downfield accuracy.
