Let’s go
I’m whelmed
Wouldve preferred to keep him with lazard on ir tbh
Hate it.
We finally have WR depth, Lazard is hurt and now we just get a 5th….why
Not bad compensation-wise. He’ll be a better fit in Pittsburgh, honestly.
Now take that 5th Rd pick and get a run stuffer
Should have gotten a 4th imo oh well
Love getting something for him. Let Corley play even tho he probably doesn’t deserve it after last week.
Mecole Hardman 2.0
Irv Charles WR3 SZN
I care less about the return than helping the Steelers. They have a tie break over us, their schedule gets hard. What is the point of this.
end of an error
Pretty decent return for how he’s just basically rotting away as WR3/4
If we really are desperate for a WR we have Brownlee ready and waiting for a chance
Giving him to an AFC team fighting for the same playoff spot makes no sense unless they are punting the season
It’s a good return all things considered, but there’s a huge drop off now in depth with Lazard out.
I guess Gipson/Corley will get the reps, but neither provide the home run threat that MW does
I think even with Lazard on IR there is very little point in keeping him. He just doesn’t look like he could be of any help.
sucks to see a dude who was so established in this league just get literally no usage with us. FIrst few weeks he looked like he could be rlly lethal on those back shoulder balls from rodgers. Wish it could of worked out better and wished we weren’t giving another AFC team a massive upgrade at Wr2 but whatever i guess
Lot of people here wildly overvaluing Mike Williams when DHop only got a 4th. A 5th here is more than we should have expected.
Time for one of the youngsters to step up in the depth role. YAC king should get more touches anyway, let him redeem himself.
Two years in a row trading a disgruntled WR on a one year deal. Nice, Joe.
They got a 5th for a guy who hasn’t done anything here. Lazard is out, but he was still going to be the 4th option behind G5, Tae, and Breece. He’ll maybe Conklin and B.Allen would’ve had more touches than him.
Wish Mike well and think this is the right move
He makes 1 catch a game on a 3-6 team, they should be selling Jesus.
This is an awful decision.
People talking about depth… we have 6 losses and this dude was one a one year deal. What deep run are y’all planning for?
Say what you will but a 5th round pick for a breakfast sandwich is a really good deal
Another great JD signing.
When you really step back and look at it, JD put together such a shit team it’s not even funny. I was always on his side, but god damn did he fall flat on his face with this year.
Not sure I see the value of a 5th pick over having Corley/Gipson as a #3 WR with Lazard on IR
