Best Player Available Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 (edited) "dialogue" doesn't necessarily mean talks with Stevie Johnson have re-opened according to this story. AP Story on Nix presser jw Ha, I saw that. Personally, since it posturing and chest pounding time regarding negotiations. Their both probably full of krap.

NoSaint Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Good post. According to quite a few people, there are only 5-8 "#1" WRs in the NFL. I'd rank Stevie in the #12-20 overall range of WRs in the NFL. The amusing part is how many people dog Stevie for the drops, yet consider Roddy White elite even though he leads the league in drops, and had a few of them yesterday. Right but when you catch two that you have no business being able to get to, it hurts less when you drop one. Stevie doesn't get to a lot of those bad throws. Probably partially due to injuries.

GaryPinC Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Interesting. I wonder what Nix meant? Probably met with Stevie last week and let him know they were interested in resuming contract talks. Stevie said ok and probably referred Buddy to his agent and Buddy'll contact him shortly. Technically a dialogue right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EDinRTP Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Watching replays of Andre Reed & James Lofton make me realize what a mistake it would be to resign the bafoon to a long term contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajzepp Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I'd love to see us keep Stevie and then draft Alshon Jeffery. That would give Fitzy one target who excels at getting open horizontally and one who excels as a vertical target. I like DeSean Jackson as a playmaker, but Fitzy wouldn't be able to take advantage of his deep threat ability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are different times. The best receiver on a terrible team. We have too sign him. For sure Andre doesn't have any sympathy for clown acts though. Don't know if stuffing his pockets full of cash will make him have a sense of responsibility on the team, or ramp up his kiddy antics. Not to mention his epic drops.

jjmac Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 He sounds realistic. The only reason he gets signed is because he would blaze our secondary if on an opposing team. I still see him leaving to free agency though. Don't believe the hype. I believe they want to resign him, but I am not holding my breath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AP Story on Nix presser jw He probably missed the call. I hear there are 15 agents calling daily to line up a No. 1 WR to go to Buffalo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
