He flashed today for sure, still missed a couple extra catches where him and Ben weren't on the same page too. Hopefully a sign of more to come. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Foppatosakic 184 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Statement game, we know who the alphas are in this offense. Pray he stays healthy what a talent. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kaii23 374 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 (edited) Safe to say dj is still the #1 option. I think the Titans gave Claypool the #1 option treatment and dj feasted on the space. Edited October 25, 2020 by Kaii23 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Claypool got a lot of defensive attention after his 4 td game. With dj coming back Claypool will probably see more open looks. I think he and Claypool will be closer to even. Maybe 8 to 6.

WR1/2 usage before Claypool popped. WR3/4" The "average talent" surprised me. Suggests his previous success is only a result of the team he plays for?

Edgeraid 217 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Absolute stud when healthy. Didn’t start him but just needs to stay healthy and he’s going to eat. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

markdash 1,323 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Watched a lot of this game. Obviously thrilled with the production, but a little concerned about some of the mistakes he's making. Had a catchable ball in the end zone that he couldn't come up with, had another drop later, ran a wrong route on another play. That said the route running is elite so perhaps we just have to live with these kinds of mistakes until he's more experienced. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Raw, and makes mistakes, but so damn talented that he’s 7/11-style open. Ben can’t help himself but go to the guy over and over even though he’s shown some inconsistency.

machine3 547 Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Very few players can change direction like he can. He really reminds me of AB. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'll admit I was a bit worried about Claypool at first, but Diontae basically picked up where he left off. Undisputed WR #1 for the Steelers in my eyes, that monster target share % is no fluke. We have a decent enough sample size by now. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sternes 5,009 Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Alright, as someone who knows nothing about him and is trying to quickly educated myself because someone is offering him to me in a trade. I've seen some youtube videos and like what I see. Obviously some injury concerns. I have seen exactly 0 Steelers games this year. I see the target share above me which has me drooling. What are some things that those of you who follow him or watch Steelers games feel like is insider info? For instance I see in the box score today Juju got almost the same amount of targets he did. Yet, everyone is talking about Johnson and rumors of Juju not being there next year. That isn't me knocking Johnson, just someone who hasn't seen him and trying to figure out why people think he is the "man" vs Juju or Claypool for instance. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
