Rc2catch Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 I don’t think he’s make sense for Buffalo or Green Bay. He’s a needs targets to make it work kinda guy, opposed to making the most of his targets that buffalo needs. If that makes sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Straight Hucklebuck Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 Would Claypool be better than Shakir or McKenzie? I think he would and he would add size. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJS Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 I have no desire to bring in an underperforming receiver who seems to make the least of his targets instead of the most. I don't care how talented he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have an eye for talent and churn out receivers non stop as far bsck as I can remember. Sucks because he brings a frame we don't currently have... I'd rather continue to develop Hodgins.

Warcodered Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 In the right circumstance would he be a guy that I'd take a shot at to see if he could hit with this offense sure, not in the current situation though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dpberr Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 Terrible technique as a route runner, which is the big problem, and why the Bills will never trade for him. He's still out there every Sunday playing street football. He either doesn't take coaching well or the Steelers haven't tried. I'm going to assume the former. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
947 Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 Our offense is not easy to pick up for WRs, with all the option routes involved. A guy who's lazy or not a hard worker would never be proficient enough in it to get playing time. This is why Giants 2021 1st rounder Kadarius Toney started the year 5th or 6th on the depth chart. He is an athletic freak, but so lazy that he can't master the playbook in Daboll's offense & constantly zigs when he was supposed to zag. They have David Sills ahead of him, of all people. Claypool would probably have the same problem if he came to Buffalo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blacklabel Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 Based on what I've heard and read about the dudes attitude it would seem he wouldn't be the greatest fit here. That's not to say they'd never take a chance on him. Part of their job is doing their homework on available players so I'm sure his name will come up in discussions at OBD. And at this point I'm sure they feel their locker room is strong enough to handle a guy who might not fit the process to a T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alphadawg7 Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 Chase Claypool has the ability to be a stud in the right situation. I don't know if he is a fit character wise for our locker room, nor do I expect we would even pursue him. I don't see us needing to trade a draft asset for a WR. But Claypool in GB could be dangerous. Rodgers will get him the ball, and with his speed and size, he could be very DK Metcalf like in that offense. If he goes to the Giants, meh, Jones just isn't a great passer and I am sure Claypool would have a few big games just based on his size and speed, but I think he would be very inconsistent in that weak passing offense.

NORWOODS FOOT Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 Would I love to have his skill set on the roster and run the experiment of seeing how he does with our coaching, scheme, and players? Absolutely. Do i have confidence that it would work out well enough to be worth the risk and the cost? Nope I would have rather taken a flier on George Pickens just like the Steelers did, and who is apparently making Claypool expendable. So I'd pass... And not to him... (Couldn't help myself!)

Would love a big bodied high point guy for Josh in redzone I think it's less about the high point guy we're missing, and more about the YAC guy. And I don't think that's a question of speed, or highpoint. Right now, the best receiver we have in terms of running through a crowd is probably Singletary. I was wondering during the Chiefs game how many of Mahomes passing yards on the season were gained after the ball was in his receivers hands. Having guys like Smith-Schuster, Watson, and Kelce will put a lot of extra yards on the QBs stat line. Other than Knox, we really don't have a bruiser WR like that. Hodgins does have a great catch radius. But, with Allen throwing the ball, does catch radius becomes less of an important attribute to YAC? I feel like Claypool might offer something we're missing in those terms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warriorspikes51 Posted October 19, 2022 Author Share Posted October 19, 2022 I'm kind of indifferent on Claypool.....but think we should add another impactful player to the offense. Maybe even someone out of leftfield no one has thought of. Brandin Cooks Curtis Samuel Kyle Pitts since Atlanta forgot he's on their roster😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orlando Tim Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 I think Claypool would be our #3 reciever, so I would pass unless he is just being dumped for like a 6th rounder. I would consider a lineman or CMC before Claypool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 Looks of rough comments on this guy. I love him out of Notre Dame. He had his sister commit suicide in high school, which I can’t imagine does to you. People are acting like some awful dude when the worst think he does is tik tok, which can be awesome. imo, these are type of players you should trade for. Dude played with the corpse of Big Ben and garbage qbs this year. As others have said, he is similar to Davis so it’s not the biggest need. But he is the type of guy who goes to another team, with a good qb, and shows his true potential. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pass I have never been a fan of him as a route runner and I agree with this. I think he is extremely talented. But it is year 3, right? After a good start he has 4 touchdowns in his last 27 games dating back to the middle of his rookie year. I'd be interested at the right price but it is a price that would not make sense for the Steelers. At the price they likely want for him I'm not interested.
