    All this tells me is that our WRs blow ass, and that everyone now knows it. GoTitans new it all along. The capital that this team has spent in the draft trying to find talent makes me want to puke. We just signed an old player that should not make an NFL roster. If he makes ours, then the question has been answered. Our franchise QB has nobody to throw the ball to. :suspect:

    I'm not comparing their careers. Just the fact that they were once a higher profile WR that garnered a little buzz when we picked theme up. But probably won't even make the team

    Everyone needs to relax even though I agree our receivers are garbagio. If we can run the rock and our o line is improved, our WR's will be far better. We don't need 2-3 Julio Jones to be good. We need. Consistency on the line and to NOT be 1 dimensional like we have been. I do think we go get a true #1 next year though.

    I am relaxed. I know we will be run oriented, but you have to admit that a move like this should of been unnecessary. It means our talent stinks (we knew that) or that things are not being grasped by our guys (picking it up). Either way, it is NOT a good sign.

    IDGAF. As long as he sticks it in the end zone while playing the ponies and cows I'll be happy.

    A move like this is to pick up a potential HOF wr who can mentor our young guys and maybe still have something left as a slot guy. No downside.

    For sure man! I wasn't directing that at you at all, just saying in general. There is no question we shouldn't have to be signing AJ at this point with so many WR's on the roster, and it's likely to push and groom DGB.

    Is he a good run blocker? He's big enough.

    Chill man.. I don't believe this represents our lack of talent as much as it represent our lack of leadership, experience, and dependable Wrs. They all have been challenged and the starting position is up for grabs. I think this move ends up being a win win situation. If Johnson can't make the roster than that means somebody stepped up, but if he does make the roster than he still has something left in the tank and he can be a positive influence to this young group.

    I agree. Especially with Kendall & Hunter (not that he really matters, but opens a roster spot at WR) being FAs after this year.. Plus having 2 1st rounders def helps. Hopefully DGB breaks out, or at least improves. Plus everybody seems to be raving about Sharpe, adding a [hopefully] star WR in the first round next year would be icing on the cake.
