fast, but 5-9, 174 pounds ...

Doesn't sound like an outside receiver to me. Didn't we just draft our slot receiver?

Wilson will get tried at both inside and out.

Another speedy option. Throw a bunch of **** against the wall and see what sticks.
Literal ****.

All the new faces in pittsburgh, although being an upgrade over Pickett is definite, this offseason has the possibility of being the year Pittsburgh gambled on the old and garbage level players, and lost.
While Better than Kenny I don't see any sure things outside of Queen. They could all suck
Fields aside, Wilson, Pruitt, Patterson, Miller, all old or bad tape and low ceilings,

I'd feel better if he was bringing guys from Tennessee where he had success.
Did read Miller was a return guy with Atlanta and Tampa bay so with two returners being used at the same time this year he could be useful there as well.

So I take that this isn't the "massive" playmaker we were anxiously awaiting?
No, but word is he will offer a challenge to Austin III and the "hide n' seek" championship. (Tiny guys are good at playing hide n' seek.)

Let’s see here… We have Big George and a rookie slot receiver Roman Wilson who will be asked to be the #2. Then we have a room full of guys that are all most likely #4 receivers with Cal Austin most likely the best of that group.
Well, you just can’t plug all the holes in one off season.

Boyd 4.5 million. I felt he was a 600 yard guy at least. Tell me why they paid Jackson 2 million to practice a couple times a couple years ago but 4.5 is too much. I don't get that.

The DK Metcalf possible trade is more than just a rumor. The problem is SEA can’t do a trade unless it’s a June 1st designation because of cap implications. I don’t know if PIT will wait that long for a player, or Omar has something else in the works with another team.

To me it's tough for a trade at this point. Draft already over. Team has to wait a year for capital.

They might invite a player that is released during camp/ near the end of camp. It's called the scrap heap. The players mentioned above will be our squad. Not a top level threat if you ask me. I suppose they are hoping a balanced attack will be enough.

Depends on if his “Beam Up” works or not……….?


Salute the nation

Hopefully Scotty's effort on the field never comes into question by coach.

I don't understand the reluctance to take Boyd for 4.5 mil ?
That seems like pretty fair compensation in this market of contracts - and his experience.
