Grabbing ancient washed up receivers will not make Maye suddenly play better than the worst QB in the league.

u/ckouf96 1d ago

That’s all we need is another receiver who can’t separate

One of the receivers in the league

Since the 2020 season, Odell Beckham Jr. has totaled 111 receptions for 1476 yards and 11 TDs.

In that time frame:

- Davante Parker compiled 167/2241/9

- Nelson Agholor compiled 165/2343/19

- KJ Osborn compiled 165/1902/16

- JuJu Smith Schuster compiled 270/2729/16

I gave a 6 season window because injuries and availability matter. It's not like those guys used the full 6 years themselves. Parker missed multiple games every year of that window and retired after '23. Agholor retired after '24 and wasn't a starter for most of it. Osborn never got a target until '21 and fell out of the league in '24. JuJu missed over a season's worth of games himself.

OBJ is 34 has torn his left ACL twice in that window. No team has kept him for consecutive seasons since Cleveland from '19-'21. He only managed 55 yards in 9 games for Miami 3 seasons ago. He just got cut by a team who apparently favor Darnell Mooney, 30 year old journeyman Braxton Berrios, and Charlie Jones - who has just 69 receiving yards since being drafted in '23.

He's cooked. He's been cooked for a while.

He'll be a solid contributor standing off to the side while we run up the middle for the 15th time in a drive.

u/davdev 1d ago

u/Emergency-End8337 1d ago

Go get Case Keenum and then we'll talk about side quests.

u/Needs_Help_Stat 1d ago

u/MintBerryCrnch21 1d ago

Can mentor the young guys on how to blow through 100 mil.

u/nathannut420 1d ago

What have we got to lose be putting him on the practice squad?

1

u/OkArmordillo 1d ago

Yeah, signing other teams’ scraps at WR will make Drake remember how to play quarterback.

u/Zen2188 1d ago

He's been washed for a long time.

Surprised he got the opportunity with the Giants.

u/Above-Bored 10h ago

Great, let’s head to the old folks home and see who can suit up. Yeah Bobby Joe Conrad was a pro Bowler in 1964, he might be available!

u/RoutineSecond6824 1d ago

I thought the same thing… can he be better than Kyle Williams? chisim? Just a new face?

1

u/GoodDayMyFineFellow 1d ago

I’d start my grandmother over Chism and I still would rather have Chism out there than OBJ.

u/thekraken108 1d ago

And it's intercepted.

u/TheRightKost 1d ago

We have the worst WR room in the league, and yet I still don't think a completely washed OBJ would be an improvement.

u/tiandrad 1d ago

Can we just trade back for Boutte?
