WR and RB are the two easiest positions to replace.
this is not remotely true.

after QB, WR is now the most valued position in the league (tie with EDGE).

Ok fair point. Seemingly easiest for Steelers to replace.

I think the term is “Easin in”.

But I get it now. Makes sense.

Najee is just easin on in to games and the season.

I’m starting to think he believes “a 100 yard rusher” means by seasons end.
There's something about Harris that still doesn't seem right to me. There are still flashes of what could be. Like the one long run and when he catches the ball. I don't know if it's confidence or a bit of a nagging injury still there or maybe I'm just nuts but I still haven't given up on him. Then again, I still think the line is complete shit too where some of you think they've improved a lot. I don't see that at all.
Moore and Dotson are worse this year, IMO.

I think both are just placeholders for actual NFL linemen to come. Like a lot of other players and positions , we tend to get used to mediocrity and "OK, not bad" types. Fix the fucking lines! Both of them need actual talent that isn't "young and not promising" or "vet nearing the end". We have a long road ahead and I'm totally surprised they didn't try to move one of the stars. Maybe at the draft?

Another question on my mind…one of my favorite movies is Moneyball…I’d like to think that Tomlin or Canada was stubborn about Claypool and/or increasing Pickens’ touches and Omar pulled a Billy Beane on the stubbornness. Much better story if true. Probably just a draft pick harvest though.

tale of the tape so far: 2.5 games, 4 catches, 28 yards.

to be fair, Claypool also has another 4 yards rushing.


He's putting up #4 receiver numbers. Or is it #2 TE numbers? Can you say "FLEECED!!!!!!"

So, can we say this was a bad career decision?
Arguing with idiots is like playing chess with a pigeon. No matter how good you are, the pigeon is going to shit on the board and strut around like it won anyway.
