GLAD he's gone or would you KEEP.............................................

[Stewey]

Me thinks Chase might be a "fancy boy"?

Had to look that up. I thought it meant something else....

 

[Stewey]

I think he is a pretty boy who knows it and wants To be the glamorous NFL wide receiver.

Look at me………..

I’m just glad Chicago has to deal with him and if his light bulb ever turns on, then more power to him.

DA BEARS !

Give me just a little of the heart and soul of a Hines Ward with our current crop of talented WRs.
They would be unstoppable.

CMT should make a highlight reel and make it mandatory viewing.

I thought JuJu had some of that grit

 

[SteelerSask2]

I honestly don't think you are gonna see another Hines Ward. Maybe some good players who's work ethic exceeds their ability. But not Ward.

 

[Badcat]

I know it was. You could say that about anyone though....No?

no, actually. There are people blessed with great talents who don't tap into them fully. There are people like claypuff who have everything it takes to be a HoFer, and then there are people like Kendrick Green who can work his *** off in the weight room and work with Pouncey in the off-season for technique and he can't make the starting roster let alone the HoF.

Or, just hire Ward to coach the receiver corp.

So take Green....what if they did have great talent? He could be a HOFer.....right?

Okay, I'll play along...not sure where you are going with this. But...yes, if Greene had the god given talents, tapped into them through dedication, hard work, and continual honing of his technique, knowledge, and mindset...he COULD be a Hall of Famer.

Problem is, he doesn't have the God given talent to develop. he just doesn't. Claypuff does. That is my point.

Well, you stated if Claypool had other things that he doesn't have he could be a HOFer. If Green had other things he doesn't have then he hypothetically could be a HOFer also. The simple reason they both won't be HOFers is they lack what it takes to be one.

You are both saying the same thing.

BACON is BACON

cooked properly, it is a HOF meal, no adders as it can stand on it’s own.

Bacon is already in the HOF. now gotta get Peppered Bacon in there. Preferably extra thick cut Peppered Bacon

 

[bigben]

Claypool hof potential is one of the worst takes i've ever heard on here.
Guy caught passes off his chest and facemask, couldn't even run the correct route alot of the time.

 

[steelcan58]

Seems like the bears have buyer regret over Claypool. I think we traded him at the right time. He has alot of talent, but is lacking in work ethic and intangibles.

If the Bears don't have buyer regret they will. Getting the first pick of the second round was highway robbery. There's no way the Steelers (or Bears) did due diligence on Claypool. He has all the tools but has no interest in developing them or becoming a professional.

Claypool is being benched today… I bet some wr desperate team trades a radish for him at the deadline….

Definitely continues to trend in the bad/wrong direction. Still think the kid is talented. Just might be the least motivated WR in the NFL.

Another question regarding the Claypool trade. Roquon Smith or JP2? I go Smith. I was really hoping they would trade Claypot for him.

Why? He wouldn’t have changed things last year enough to matter, then signed a 100 million dollar contract with the Ravens in the offseason… we could have just signed him if we wanted him but we couldn’t afford another 20 million per contract on that D…

So instead of 4 years of JPJr At Rookie wages, we get 1 partial season of Smith and probably see him go to the Ravens anyway… and in a year where we signed enough ufas that we don’t even get a pick for him

JPJ

Rookie contract where Smith needed a big deal. CB is also a more important position.

 

[Stryker]

Claypool hasn't won a football game since Wk 1 2022...

 

[Chicoman]

Claypool is a headcase! It's amazing Omar Khan got the Bears #2 Round Pick for him. We got a legit long term DB in Joey Jr for a guy with a ego that was too obig to fit through the Steelers locker room door!

He would be a beast in our defense. And he wouldn't be a raven.

Claypuff will model a pink boa in Paris in hope of launching his fashion career.
