Drained Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 I mean if the Browns are willing to give up OBJ for like a 4th or something, I don't see why the Texans don't take it him aside immature personality. There's got to be a reason he left the NYG as a possible top 5 receiver and is now a has-been. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EL Guapo Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 You wonder if it's the same source Mark Malusis had when he said the Vikings were trying to trade for Odell, probably not. Mark was Mike's producer a long time ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had an ankle thing in NY I believe and I don't think he's been right since it seems like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those issues would rob his speed, but it doesn't seem like explosiveness is the issue. He looks fast enough and can cut and get open. The problem is that he's not catching the ball well enough. He's dropping sure catches, but more importantly there are a lot of 50/50 or 65/35 balls that he doesn't come up with. A LOT of passes in his direction just end up on the ground and you would expect a #1 and especially a "star" WR to come away with contested catches. This is likely the source of his ongoing beef with Humphrey and Peters. They rack up a lot of "passes defensed" against him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is quite weird considering he had fantastic hands his entire career before Cleveland. Maybe it could be chalked up to coaching? Idk...

It is directly related to the regression of Baker Mayfield. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eat the money and stop showing stupid commercials with a QB that has a 77 rating since his rookie year. No one is buying insurance from him. If he turns it around then start showing them again. Flo is a better QB right now. That's... ... Savage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed Baker on Sunday was throwing nothing but 95mph heaters to his WR's, no matter where they were on the field. It felt like watching Kaepernick all over again. No touch, no feel, just laser beams towards his guys. That, combined with his already questionable accuracy makes it not fun to catch passes.

I've definitely seen him fail to come up with a good number of catchable passes. OBJ early in his career came up with max difficulty catches, but OBJ of the last year isn't. I'm sure NFL teams would put the effort into watching film all his targets since start of 2019 to confirm or deny this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fresh Prince Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Robinson would help the Pats a lot in the passing game. Need a WR who can get separation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched him in JAX, lived in Chicago last year and watched plenty of Bears games...he's in the upper echelon of receivers imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BayRaider Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 (edited) I’d give a 2nd and 4th for ARob in a heartbeat. Possibly even a 2nd and 3rd if they give me back a 4th. Although their asking price is probably a 1st. With that said, I doubt Bears would trade ARob. I bet they pay him in the next week or two. It’d be really foolish to trade him. OBJ on the other hand... being brutally honest, wouldn’t take him for free! Major diva and really lazy lately.
