    Sounds like the Browns will be cutting him soon. No guaranteed money left on his contract, why not try him in Pittsburgh where we sorely lack a deepthreat at WR?

    Low risk high reward move.

    He doesn't fit. He would end up going diva like AB did. OBJ = Terrell Owens 2.0... but not nearly as good as TO.

    AB gave us almost 10 seasons before he went diva on us. If OBJ can give us just the reason of Ben's likely last season it would be worth it.

    Just what we need. Another headache.

    He will get picked up.

    Fair point. Now you got me thinking but no way the Steeler organization does this.

    No. The Rams cut Desean Jackson this week, I would rather have him.

    I agree with you. He will get picked up by someone else who is seeking a Superbowl this year. The Ravens wouldn't shock me.

    Jackson has as much of a reputation for being a diva as OBJ. And he's much older too.

    You're correct about all of that but he would virtually be free and still has a little bit left in the tank. Right now our 3rd options are Washington and Ray Ray and that isn't good enough.

    We already have 2 WR's better than him. The limited upside he offers would be quickly outweighed by his ability to be a locker room cancer. That's a big hell nah from me.

    The fact of the matter is he will HAVE to go to a team that is severely lacking at WR. He still thinks he's a #1 receiver (lmao), so he will want to be played and targeted like one. The targets need to be going to Johnson and Claypool, and tbh I would rather us target Friermuth and Harris than bring in OBJ for those targets. Ship him to Chicago or Detroit and watch the final year or two of his career burn in glorious flames.

    Doesn’t he have both shoulders injured?
    Even if not, no.
    But maybe his Dad could figure out what’s going on with the passing game here.

    Surely we could find a different receiver who can't stay healthy and is less of a PITA?

    Hard pass. They just shipped out one potential problem. No need to bring in another.

    This is it. It has finally occurred and there can be no other one that will ever top it. Simply stop any further competition. Don't even attempt to try harder. The bar has been set and cannot be beaten. It may even go down in history of every football forum ever now or in the future.
