Striker Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 3 hours ago, R T said: I keep seeing all these people bring up Juju, is no one aware of big of a headcase and pain in the *** he has been to that locker room in Pittsburgh? He is an Antonio Brown level headcase. I don't understand this claim. He's active on social media and is involved with gaming, but I've seen nothing but good things from the Steelers re: JuJu. The only reason I'd be wary of the Packers making a play for him is they already have two slot WRs in Cobb and, presumably, Rodgers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chili Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 (edited) It's a shame we missed out on a Amari Cooper trade. He would've been a good replacement for Adams. I suspect we will target MVS and then try to get Juju to pair him so that we have two guys with complimentary styles and have a good level of NFL experience for Rodgers to throw to rather than completely relying on drafted rookies.

craig Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Do packers need to stay under cap? Or can they bump over it until some future deadline again? Wondering if rasul etc can be completed immediately? And that IF deals don’t happen it means they aren’t actually made? Or if any deals have to wait for league to clear adams trade and raiders to pass his physical, so maybe one or more deals are done, but just waiting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chili Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Finally caught up with everything on the Adams trade. Damn. I had an inkling this might happen so I'm not too surprised. A little disappointed sure but something like this was bound to happen with either Rodgers or Adams. We all knew this coming into the offseason. We're not going to successfully replace Adams immediately but we do have the ability to build a productive WR corp which will keep us competitive. MVS as our deep threat paired with high volume short/medium yardage guy in JuJu complimented by a reliable TE such as Tonyan or Hooper. We will have Lazard and veteran Cobb in the room plus a new draft pick for us to develop. We also have the run game of Jones and Dillon to supplement our pass attack. I have confidence we will successfully rebuild our pass attack and remain highly productive with Rodgers slinging the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chili Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 (edited) The list of FA returners has whittled down drastically. McKenzie back with the Bills, Berrios back with the Jets, Jackeem Grant signs with the Browns, obviously McCloud with the 49ers. Really it looks like the only noteworthy returner left is Byron Pringle. There are others but they all over 30. I think we will find ourselves a cheap returner in the draft instead.

Cooper's cap hit this year is 20 million. That is an easy pass for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brit Pack Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 (edited) Wish list:Julio or Aj Green - big bodied vet savvy receiver who can share jokes with Arod + Julio played in the Shanny systemHooper - no brainer good TE we wanted him before let's do thisJuJu or Landry - both good blockers and for the short stuffMVS or Fuller or Cooks - stretch the field types, I think MVS has come on along and is an ascending player and would prefer him over the other twoCole Beasely - Just for jokes, we wanted him before, another no-vaxer to keep Rodgers companyAnd the guys that have been cut: Julio, Hooper, Landry and Cole - I like the look of that!!!

Though I like the skill set, I think Landry's pretty much a slot WR (?) - which would give us three of them: Landry, Cobb and Amari. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats what i would do if im Gutey. What a defining trade. He is going to reinvent the offense for us, hope he can come through Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking Gute has it under control but sure he's already probably thought what you're suggesting. 😄 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
