Meh

 

[Honour Over Glory]

They act like Fields couldn't throw either, Smith choosing the run to set up a pass bs wasn't on him. Wilson being fine is great but it wasn't like Fields was awful.

The narrative the team on air keep spinning with their subtle jabs is f***ing lame.


Mike Williams is basically a Steeler after this game ends.

Took their sweet ass time.

 

[Son Goku]

Williams does nothing. Cue ball Khan played this horribly. Ron Hextall 2.0

Bad take imo

You’re such an idiot, haha.

Williams is a good number 2 deep threat and has had years of production. Im good with this.

 

[pistolpete11]

To be clear, this is what I was expecting. Not necessarily what I was hoping for.

I think it's fine, though. When healthy, he's been pretty productive and a 5th is next to nothing. We'll have to see how he's used and if he's just washed up or not. I think there is some logic to having another deep threat with Russ's moonball that could help open up underneath even more for the RB and TE. If it doesn't, then hopefully he can make a big play or 2 a game. And I don't know how he is as a blocker, but he certainly has the size.

See how it goes of course, but I'd expect them to use one of their top 2-3 picks on a WR now.

Williams WAS a good #2 threat.

This was a bare minimum move. The WR has been awful since March. Cue ball has had months to improve the WR depth. It isnt like there was a lack of WRs available.

We upgraded over Van Jefferson…maybe.

Lazy ass move

 

[WickedWrister]

Hopkins just went for a 5th that can become a 4th if the Chiefs make the SB and he plays like 60% of snaps. He looked pretty good last night.

 

[Peat]

Well that's a trade. See how it works out now.

 

[Buddy Bizarre]

Pay up

https://x.com/i/web/status/1853864791351398567

Well you know the trade wouldn't have happened if I didn't make that dumb post haha

 

[cookthebooks]

bare minimum move seems like the right one when the team isnt good enough to win a super bowl?

 

[Empoleon8771]

Honestly I wanted Williams a lot in the off-season and I'm not going to write him off for not fitting well with the Jets. Definitely not my ideal target but he's an upgrade on what they have. With Russ' moonball, I think he made a lot of sense.

You clearly just like to bitch. And your nickname for Khan is dumb and sounds dumber every time you use it.

Any WR would love to play with Mahomes.

Hooray for depth I guess?

 

[OnMyOwn]

He’s averaged 8 sacks the last few seasons. Solid depth for sure.

 

[Double-Shift Lasse]

Wrong brother.

Seriously, though, good depth move with the injuries at OLB and how crucial that position is to the team's scheme.

 

[Pengwins]

Williams is a great trade. Watch his highlights from Chargers.

Yeah I don't get the bitching and the bad take comments.

It's like if the Steelers gave up a lot for someone better it'd be bitching about that. There was no winning this for a lot. I'm fine with the deal. I feel like it'll work out just fine.

 

[bigdaddyk88]

That was before he injured his acl

 

[TooManyHumans]

Well, Williams instantly becomes our second best contested catch WR. That is not nothing.

Wrong brother.

It allows for TJ to take off the plays he needs to without killing us, especially if Herbig is not fully back or something happens again to him or to Highsmith.

 

[Pens1566]

Williams trade does nothing for me. Warm body in exchange for a meh pick.
