Did we sign this piece of shit yet?

Please no, unless a cheap cheap deal.

I’d be fine with him as #3 WR as long as he understands his role is mainly to be a vet leader and he’s not gonna have huge numbers.

Still gotta draft one.

I think I'd rather try to kick the tires on Michael Thomas

Is he willing to take a cheap deal?

He hasn't had a productive season since 2019, so I'd agree...

I would be fine if he signs up as a ring chaser.


Having him as weapon #4 would be nice.

You guys are suggesting we ask a guy who wanted to sit out all year and then come in just to help during a playoff run to inspire and motivate our young receivers ROFL

I hope this is not true. Not a fan.

Wait, the Ravens paid him $15 million last year? Lol.

I am too old to understand the hip lingo these youngsters use these days, but I believe he was saying that he enjoyed his time in Baltimore, and wished they could have had more success together. He loved the city and his teammates and he will always look fondly upon his time together with them.

When did he do that? Or was he just injured and didn’t choose to come back too soon?

REPORT: Majority of Chiefs fans have “no interest” in OBJ.

1 year $5 mill and I'll be excited!

And if we got him people could see what "elite ball tracking" actually looks like.

He averaged a career high 16.1 YPC last season.

He was pretty good for the Rams on their Super Bowl run, right?

They don't win that Championship without him.

I haven't looked at the numbers, but this guy seems like an older MVS at this point. Yeah, he'd be a vet leader and basically WR3/4 to fill out the roster.

Man I'd rather not.

Yep don't need that at all.

People are crazy to not want him on some reasonable deal. He’s not what he was but he’s also not washed.

Hollywood-Rice-OBJ-Draft Pick is not a bad WR corps...

He's not a #1 but a lot of the lack of production last year was the amount of targets in Baltimore.

When they threw his way he delivered.

Pretty much where I am.

If he’s reasonable in his ask, then I’m in favor.

Cheap, ok. But he and his Dad can cause some distractions if he isn't used like he things. I would think Mahomes, Reid and Kelce could keep him in line like that did JUJU and Tyreek.

Give me Adonai Mitchell or McConkey and its on.

Defenses will have no answers.

Did anything come out of him while he was in Baltimore? Because it's not like he really produced there. And if not, why would you think he would here?

See the highlights I posted above. The guy can still make plays. He's certainly not a number 1 anymore, but he can deliver. Not interested in him unless it's for the right price.

He's a solid #3 or #4, I don't hate the fit but can we ask him to take a vow of silence or something for the year.

This ain’t his Baker Mayfield days.

What is this mutual interest based on?

Is he still banging Kim K?

I would support this. Either him or Williams seem like good pickups. No idea why people keep bringing up Michael Thomas.

Yea, I missed that the ones after the Chiefs loss were fraudulent.

Going from a WR room of Rashee Rice, Skyy Moore, Toney and Watson to Rashee Rice, Hollywood Brown, OBJ and Xavier Worthy would be something.

And what drama did that create versus what it did 4 years ago with Baker? No one cared or even acknowledged it.

I want to see OBJ on slant routes with Mahomes.

That’s like the 2019 defense overhaul or 2022 OL replacement

From what I read, he was helping the young Baltimore receivers with route running etc last year. The biggest hurdle is Kim Kardashien and Taylor don’t get along.

I’d love to have OBJ on a cheap deal.

Man, wouldn't it be nice. Not a fan of OBJ's personality (or his dad's), but he can still play at a high level. Go get him, Veach.

I think as a role player and not a featured WR, which is basically what he's been the last couple of seasons, it would be just fine and a solid upgrade for your 3rd or 4th WR. Still would want to draft one if we did sign him. But who knows if it would actually happen. He's talented and has really good hands and even just a 500-600 yard season would be a big boost to the offense.

Seems he’s still got a lot of ability. And he won’t be facing Trent McDuffie. Appeared to be a great team guy for Baltimore.

I think we have a really really good locker room. I think Andy, Mahomes and Kelce do a good job keeping a team as a team instead of a ME on a team...

He started 6 games last year and played in 14. He caught 35 balls for 565 yards and 3 TDs. He did average 16.1 yards per catch but he had a long of 51 yards, which can skew the numbers. At this stage of his career he can't be consider a game changer, although his numbers were marginally better than MVS last year.

With 10 years in the league, 50% of them were productive, 2014-2016 and 2018-2019. The last productive year was 5 years ago. Contrary to what OBJ most likely has running through his own mind, he's simply not worth any significant amount of money.

Hard pass.

He wants OBJ money like it’s still 2017, no thanks.

Could be Kim Kardashian and Taylor Swift in the suite together.

Won't be real til Rickey weighs in. My only hesitation is there are only so many targets. On second thought, what an amazing problem to have after last year.

Meh. I watched the Ravens game All 22 and Sneed/McDuffie locked him up easily. He is definitely not what he was. Not sure that athleticism is still there.

Definitely doesn’t scare defenses anymore. He was meh aside from 2 or 3 games.

I’d pass if he wants more than $3 million. He’s not appreciably better than Justin Watson at this point. He looks like what he is: a soon to be 32 year old coming off 2 major knee surgeries.

Yep, I'm fine with cheap, but wouldn't want more than say $4m with incentives to $7m, give or take.

Lol, wow, that's just a terrible analysis. In his sleep OBJ is a better WR than JWat. Put the pipe down, sheesh.

Like Stephon Diggs he only watches. Besides we need a scat back not a scat chest

2014-2021 OBJ? Absolutely
2023 OBJ? Absolutely not

Do you guys watch these players or just keep their name from back when they were good? Again the guy is turning 32 and had 2 major knee surgeries. He isn’t anywhere near what he used to be.

You don’t know that. And I highly doubt it.

Would have to be super cheap to make sense

lol, let's think about this:

Which WR can run a full route tree?
Which WR has a decent set of releases/release package?
Which WR knows how to create separation at the top of a route/at the catchpoint?
Which WR can make sight adjustments?
Which WR can read the defensive alignment pre-snap?
Which WR has better hands?
Which WR can track the ball better?

I'll give you a hint: there's only one answer to all the above questions.

The Tyreek Hill thread is still on the front page. Hello

Seemed like he had some games last year where he was upset he wasn't getting the ball, even though the Ravens were absolutely crushing.

Unless he mentally accepts his limited role, that diva/me first attitude might cause some unnecessary drama.

I agree with what others have said - it would have to be a cheap one-year deal. If he is willing to do that, then I don't see why not. He should be able to contribute more than the average WR would.

Oh **** no, please no!!! But…if Veach thinks so then I’m good. 🙂

Watson had a higher yards per catch than OBJ last year (17 vs 16.5) and just as many TDs (3).

so what's the deal with this guy's mental? Does he end up being a cancer or something? Haven't really heard much about that since he left the Browns.

Reid would take care of him, manage his snap count, and save him for when the lights are the brightest. I like it, I don't love it, but certainly better than MVS/Watson/Moore/Toney/Hardman.

Watson was force fed targets because there were no good players around him.

Meaningless data.

If we get him he hasn't lost a step and will catch everything.


If he goes elsewhere he's a washed piece of shit that should be trying out for the Toledo Bells flag football team.

trash

Would rather have a rookie for the 3rd WR spot at this point but wouldn't mind OBJ there if we can't get a good one in the top 2-3 rounds

I read your posts all over the boards and they all have the following things in common.

1. You never agree with anyone.
2. You always have to be right.
3. You can never see the other side of the coin.
4. In order to achieve 1 through 3 you spin the hell out of everything.

The mods should change you name to inertia.

I like Justin; he's a good guy and occasionally he makes a great play. But he's a better ST player than he is a WR, and that's just a fact.

He shies from contact and often allows passes to go through his hands when going over the middle; go back and watch the DET game from last season where he lets two balls go through him, both of which were dead on the money and hit him in both hands. He also struggles in zone and doesn't make sight adjustments at all.


Meanwhile, we have OBJ:

Sorry, put up the wrong clip the first time. This is the right one.

Should change his name to “Banned”

Not going to judge a guy based on a matchup that literally not a single receiver all year did well against.

I've heard of him!!!!

Who’s the source?

Getting kicked off planes sounds like something Bills fans could get behind. They're not really interested in Lombardis any way. Just the things they could do with the champagne corks

Could maybe still be a 40 catch 600 yard guy. After the shit we had if he's a 3 or 4th WR type I'm down.

Nope. I'd rather have Watson because the 5th option in the passing game needs to play special teams. Watson can actually threaten a defense deep too. He's an incredibly versatile roster piece.

OBJ probably just break himself again.

I'll swap highlight videos with you, just for fun. :p

reread your post, I am saying I looked up the tweets tonight and it wasn't his Dad's, it was a fraud acct.
