What is it around here with all the Berrian love? He sucks, and the numbers listed above substanciate that.

He runs fast, people get enamored with it. They don't notice the shitty routes or the bad hands.

IMO he would be a downgrade from Samie Parker. Do you agree?

WTF do you just make stuff up to make yourself seem knowledgeable?!?

Here's a recent scouting report:

Berrian has excellent deep speed, ball skills and red-zone ability. He is deceptive and gets on top of off defenders quickly. He has the extra gear to separate from tight man-to-man coverage. He is outstanding in the red zone. He runs good fade routes and attacks high balls, often out-jumping the defender. He has soft hands and impressive hand-eye coordination. He tracks and snatches balls, often without breaking stride. He continues to refine his game and improve his route running. He no longer is just a deep threat and decoy. He is excellent after the catch and dangerous on reverses. He has improved his hand use and has the quickness to avoid most jams at the line. He makes the effort as a blocker. But Berrian is lean and somewhat limited by his lack of bulk. He sometimes struggles against tough press coverage. He isn't a physical downfield blocker.

I don't think that guy saw the same guy I did.....he runs deep that's the only thing he does well.

Kinda funny to bring up Johnsons first year in the league when that was roughly what 5 years ago?

Hey think what you want but from what I've seen Johnson is easily the best FA WR.

He was the guy catching passes from future h.o.f.s Rex Grossman, Brian Griese and Kyle Orton. I live in the thick of NFC Central and have watch Bears VERY often (kinda my backup team) so id like to know what game you watched?

Nobody sees the same guy you do Mecca. I just can't figure out why you don't have a career as an NFL expert, since you clearly know more than any of the ones out there already.

I think Berrian's problem has been more a result of bad QB play than anything else. Put him with an above average QB, and I think he has the potential to be a pro bowler.

I disagree, I think he has made the QBs look bad. I live in the Chicago area and watch a lot of the their games and and am constantly exposed to their hype. I hope BB does not end up a Chief.
