And the latest WR To be a Steeler.....Mike Williams

[jitter77]

I'm really not a fan of Williams. He had some good years with the Chargers then seemed to fall off. Hopefully he will work out, but who are we taking off the field? CAIII seems to be coming around so I guess Jefferson will be the odd man out

 

[Litos]

At least it will be a 5th-32nd pick and not an early 5th

Not sure there will be an odd man out. I think both will be used in certain situations…

We would be remiss if we didn’t mention the division of labor and things of that nature

As long as the new number 18 catches the ball consistently...I'm good w/ this signing.

Oh, and hopefully he runs north after every catch unless it's east or west but, DAMN, please don't run south like the old number 18...

And sulks like a little ***** after games

 

[Black & Gold Bleeder]

I just want him to run good routes and get open.

cant always get what you want.

I hope I’m wrong but he was a weekly low light reel in New York. Couldn’t figure out that offense at all…

Yes, you are wrong because you didn’t watch the Jets early season games did you?

Please tell me you watched a single Jets game and this is your evaluation…

I watched three early season Jets games…

Rogers couldn’t ******* move coming off an Achilles tear. He couldn’t get the ball to Williams. It wasn’t William’s fault. It was freaking Rogers fault

Rodgers is done imho

Yep. Garrett Wilson on pace for 1,252 yards and Adams had 7 catches for 91 yards and a td last game. But it’s all Rodgers fault.

Yep both were coming off a significant injury. I think that is why the Steelers wanted to bring him aboard knowing that there was mitigating circumstances.

I know for a fact, you didn’t watch the game because he’s old and slow. I watched the games dude you are so off. Just go away.

Once again, Rogers couldn’t do **** the first part of season

But of course you did watch the games, right?

Rogers has sucked all year up until last game. Doofus.

The NYBussDrivers Association wanted Rodgers arrested and put behind bars. They were tired of running over everyone that the Rodgers was throwing under their busses !!!!

You raise a good point. Let me think about that for a moment.

 

[Black & Gold Bleeder]

ok what did you come up with?

 

[SteveA]

Not a great addition if we were looking to seriously upgrade at WR2. Williams falls in line with the other receivers they signed this offseason in the sense that it's been 2-3 years since his last productive season. Odds of returning to that level aren't particularly high and I don't know how much of an upgrade he'll be over WRs 3-5

GAME WINNING TD IN FIRST GAME...Nice evaluation & scouting report though...

 

[SteveA]

We need a sure handed guy who can run crisp routes. Instead we get a guy with suspect hands and poor route running. I hope I’m wrong but he was a weekly low light reel in New York.

You were wrong, I told you Rogers couldn't get him the rock....Game-winning TD catch with them suspect hands you were peddling...

FIVE WIDE BEEEEEOOTCHS!!!

I wouldn't mind seeing 4 wide at times....or even 3. Watching Washington running routes in a crucial situation and not getting his head around to the ball was brutal. He has like 12 catches on the year. Running 2 TEs every play is hurting us at times.

Ahhhh... excellent point.

I just remembered that Mt. Washington took too long to get his body in position on an out route. I think baby Heyward would have been the better option on that play. Pruitt dropped one too, IIRC...

I think they have every intention to be a power football team so their TE usage reflect that. Problem is Muth could be better as a blocker and catcher and MT. Washington could be a better pass catcher. Not saying they don’t have moments but perhaps not enough of them.

Some of that might be due to what Wilson is good and not so good at. Some of it might be due to how they fit within the scheme.

On that play would Heyward have been the pass catching option? Sure. But if you are using Washington just on blocking plays you aren’t developing him and it because obvious what your intention is. Oh this player they will use as just a blocker oh this player they will use just as a pass catcher.

Coaching has improved, scheme has improved. Now these players need to maximize their abilities. And if they are already maxed out an upgrade can be welcomed.

Still I think the real upgrade is needed within route running WRs. That is the weakest link. On offense.

The biggest takeaway not being talked about from
yesterdays game winning go route to 18 is that now it’s on tape and teams now need to respect the deep ball when 18 and 14 are lining up.
