mattsox Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 I second this..... Sounds like solid facts to me Agreed. Sign the Man. Better than franchising him. We need to sign him to a multiple year deal. Hopefully 4-5 years. We need to focus on other needs. Granted we need a genuine #2 guy, but he's a player who contributes big to this team.
T master Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 (edited) According to WGR, if Johnson got a deal done at $7.5M, that would make him the 15th highest paid WR in the league. http://wgr550.com/CAPACCIO--What-is-Stevie-Johnson-s-Value-/11853951 Currently, Johnson is 18th in receiving yards (with no real #2 WR to compliment him.) http://www.nfl.com/stats/categorystats?tabSeq=0&statisticCategory=RECEIVING&conference=null&season=2011&seasonType=REG&d-447263-s=RECEIVING_YARDS&d-447263-o=2&d-447263-n=1 Terrell Owens was paid $6.5M for his year in Buffalo. Here are T.O.'s stats during his year in Buffalo: 55 Rec, 829 yds, 5 TD's Here are Johnson stats from the last 2 seasons: 2010 82 Rec, 1073 yds, 10 TD's 2011 (15 games): 72 Rec, 964 yds, 6 TD's Johnson has clearly outplayed T.O. and should be paid. IMO, Johnson is giving the Bills a hometown discount and the Bills would be foolish to let him go. Pay the man already!! Not to mention they signed Lee Evens to his contract & made 8.2 mil this year & his stats didn't come close to that of Stevies -- not even if you add them up for his last 2 years here they didn't match Stevies !!!!!!! SO PAY THE GUY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WTF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Edited December 30, 2011 by T master
