In Baltimore, he's taking a backseat to the run game. In Pitt - even with Ben and a declining run game - he's the focal point. Will he?

I'm just saying he isn't a clear #1 there. It would not be surprising to me if he's the #3 in yards again for that team in 2021 Edited March 19, 2021 by Tk3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WR's go missing in that offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He never said he wasnt...just that it wasnt likely. The WR market was weak all around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tk3 Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 It's weird that everyone insistently detracts from Baltimore but pointedly ignores the KC of it all The simple answer is he likes the city and the fans and the team, and that is commendable But I'm not buying the "it's the best situation for him" argument floating around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't blame Juju at all for his decision. That being said I hope the Ravens waive to him at the bottom of the division standings next year!

Can you please name me the last big-named FA WR the Seahawks have signed during the RW era? The Patriots are vastly overpaying for mediocre WR's lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a tough comp, specifically KC. Watkins wasn't a #2.. It was like 3 #3s that all split. If Juju is there he gets way more than the 50-60 of the other guys. He gets at least 80-100, and I'll take that over the bulk in Pittsburgh any time. Quality of looks matter also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quality of looks matter also Okay let's compare him to Hardman - 62 targets in 8 games. No matter how you slice it, in KC he's not going to get looks or production because of Hill/Kelce. In Baltimore, he's likely not going to get opportunities because of how much they run. His best chance is still Pittsburgh, despite all of their flaws.
