This sums it up:

“It's hard to imagine a scenario where Claypool would crack the Steelers' 53-man roster if he were to ever return to the organization.”

 

I agree, but....
I believe change in Qbs had a lot to do with it.
It's not magic that both DJ, and Claypool who looked good with Ben both turned bad, and can't stay on a team since He left.

 

Yeah if McCarthy doesn't allow music at practice that will be a deal breaker for Claypool.

 

Footwork on route running was terrible. Couldn't catch a ball without leaving his feet. No thanks.

 

5 you nail everyone of em


a little worried about CC because
one of MMs DJs just spun his last 78 the other day too

 

I think it was Stephen Foster's "Camptown Races".

 

RE Claypool

Time does not fix stupid

 

If he wanted to reform, he should have done it 4 years ago. Now he's just an older version of himself that ran out of money.

Don't get me wrong, I love seeing young men figuring things out, but I'm not sure if that is what this is. If he comes in to work out and works his ass off to get a hat...good for him. I just don't know that it can happen at this point or that he even deserves the opportunity.

 

Ben was not a fan of Claypool that last season together. As far as I know nothing was ever said about it publicly, but you could just tell the way Ben would stare Claypool down after plays. A similar reaction to Rodgers talking about how everyone is in the film room together but some players still just don't get it.
I wouldn't want Claypool back on the team in any capacity. But especially when trying to rebuild an offense with young guys.


As for DJ, I never saw the shine. I do not understand any level of hype with that one. Bad drops at the worst times, losing first downs after getting it on the catch, just too many bone-headed things with those 2 for me.


Notice I never called either one a team cancer. I just don't think they were ever team guys.

 

Although I agree with you ,but we can't take away how much different/ better DJ, and Claypool were with Ben.
Claypool : 1733 yard, and 11 TDs in two years with Ben.
DJ : 2084 yards, and 15 tds with Ben in 2 years.
That my friend is great numbers with Ben for both, and after Ben they both looked lost, and couldn't keep a job.
Another reason I say that Qbs make 97% of all WRs.
