Juju status- MB leaving and Washington coming

[hockeyBjj]

I was exhilarated when Bryant left, not that I expected a lot of competition from him, that JuJu was now the clear and free #2 behind AB

A round two investment in a WR with a similar skill set and usage as JuJu makes me fear they're gonna use their two young receivers to split the work behind the top dog

How do things affect you? JuJu still a mad hyped prospect worth around or more than the 1.2 and Washington isn't a threat in the slightest and just a body to fill in? Or has this cooled JuJu some?

This is just how Pittsburgh does it. They're always adding receiver talent. This definitely hurts JuJu. The question is how much it does. I could see JuJu still producing at a relatively high level, but I could also see him and Washington splitting and hurting each other.

I think it was inevitable that they were going to bring in another WR, if you are an offense-heavy team you need 3 WRs. That is just the reality. Something the Steelers have proven.

Of course it hurts JuJu and people are naive if they think it does not. The passing game runs through AB & Bell, JuJu and Washington will get the scraps.

I think people were already unreasonably high on JuJu, especially since 2 of his 3 big games came with AB hurt. This should bring him down more-so to where he already should have been.

x2 JuJu and Washington will get the leftovers

Betcha JuJu's numbers will be closer to AB's than you think.

I'll take that bet

Personally, I agree that the offense runs through Bell and AB, but Washington is not a polished receiver, at all (!!), and JuJu will continue to put up great WR2 numbers.

[BigBawseRoss]

people are/were absurdly high on juju and it was totally unwarranted, imo, because there just wasnt much chance for him to hit his true ceiling with players like bell and brown taking the vast majority or work, mix in other WRs like Washington (formerly Bryant) and the fringe wr1/high end wr2 view on juju was just unrealistic and based off him being a fun personality who had some big splash plays and impactful/memorable games as a rookie. also i think people go "wow look how sick nasty he was as a 20 year old, the sky is the limit!" i agree with this, and it is dynasty afterall, but i think his best years wont happen for another 2-3, i would buy him after this season if his numbers are what i expect them to be and while people are down on him

I'll take that bet

Overreaction to Pittsburgh wanting a 3rd received. No change at all from where he was valued before the draft, after Bryant was traded, and post draft. I fully expected Bryant to be moved and fully expected Pittsburgh rostering more than two receivers

Sig bet this guys. Juju > half of AB's fantasy numbers (provided they both play 14+ games) Never Veto wins. Juju under half of AB's fantasy score Big Bawse gets it

I don't know if it'll be half or not...though I think it probably will, but what I am pretty sure of is that their numbers will be closer to each other this year than they were last year. AB is another year older, and Juju is another year more experienced. I think you're going to see their numbers getting closer and closer each year until AB hangs it up.

I would do that

I think that you are a bit too low on juju. Unrealistically low to be honest.
