He’s due a good chunk of money along with Shepherd. And with so many quality WR FA’s available it’s gonna be hard to convince someone to take Tate and his salary.
says that they love Juju on the field but there has been a change in attitude. Prima donna type stuff. AB is still in their short term memory so their threshold for dealing with this type of WR is smaller than most. This is especially true with Claypool and Johnson emerging.
Juju. He will 25 next year and Pitt will be tight on the cap.
The Steelers will surely figure out how to retain him.
Not necessarily. Claypool obviously has stepped up in his rookie season and JuJu will want big money. They also have to pay guys like TJ Watt who is going to get a boatload of a contract.

you're kidding with this right? It's going to be hard for the Giants to sign a big ticket FA because of Golden Fucking Tate?
The Giants have SEVEN players making good money, and that includes tate who isn't even making that much and is cuttable.
What is this the minor leagues? Pony the hell up already.
also includes Solder and Zietler, also likely done here.
We are paying hardly anyone here.
Reminder, 2010 or so. How many Giants were making a lot of money back then? Off the top of my head I can rattle off 14-15 guys and I got lazy and didn't even think it through, easily 14-15 players and none of them were about to be cut.
now we have maybe 6-7 and 2-3 are about to be cut.
we're unlikely to spend a ton of assets or cap space on players 27 or older, it just doesn't match up with the rest of the roster.
Golladay, Robinson, Bud Dupree, Patrick Pederson, etc, raise the talent level but you'd have to address a ton of positions to lift the roster.
It's largely gonna be the draft.
That's music to my ears. Stick with the value signings and hit on some good players in rounds 1-4.
They need more picks.
Depends who is available, but I’d absolutely be looking to sign 1 or 2 of those guys mentioned, we can only build so much through the draft. Golladay would be perfect here, no clue how much he will command, but throw him in paired with Slayton and Shep and add another piece in this draft we would have a pretty decent unit. I don’t know if Dupree will shake loose or not but that would be an absolute no brainer. This team lack pass rushers more than anything else. Those two could really help turn this team around as long as they hit on their picks and don’t waste them carelessly. They need DB’s badly, interior OL, And Edge/ Pass Rushers badly. This should be the focus in the draft, but you can’t expect them to hit all categories without spending smartly in FA either. I’m fine with locking in a true #1 WR, Golladay would be perfect. Robinson second for me, stay away from Juju he is a slot guy.
Golladay has been healthier, has less wear, and is a couple inches taller.
Allen Robinson has the big injury wiping out an entire season but has otherwise been durable iirc.

Yeah. You're right. Both have their injuries.
Fuller is not dependable. Too much porcelain on that body.
If they could get a legit #1 WR, Slayton could slide into the #2 spot and Shepard the #3. All the sudden you've got a pretty dangerous WR group.

Agree with this^
That said, I expect Detroit to re-sign him.
I’d pay Golladay BIG money.
Robinson? No chance.
The Steelers will surely figure out how to retain him.

He's not much younger at all.

Time to open up the check book there Johnny boy.

Yeah, you're right. I was looking at yeas in the league, not factoring in the ARob entered the draft as a junior.
