Juju Smith-Schuster Dynasty Thread:

Let’s start back at his college days at USC!

• As a Freshman, he put himself on the map with immediate production, posting a statline of: 54-724-5

• Juju’s sophomore year in college is when he separated himself from others: 89-1454-10https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🔥" title="Fire" aria-label="Emoji: Fire">

[Part 2]

• Juju’s final year in college, he posted: 70-914-10

• Several months later, the 6’2, 220lb JJSS was drafted in the 2nd round (62nd overall) by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the 2017 NFL draft.

[Part 3]

• WR’s drafted before Juju in 2017?

1. Corey Davis (5th overall)

2. Mike Williams (7th)

3. John Ross (9th)

4. Zay Jones (37th)

5. Curtis Samuel (40th)

That’s right! JJSS was the 6th wide out off the board, but let’s dive and talk about how his future looks https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤞🏻" title="Crossed fingers (light skin tone)" aria-label="Emoji: Crossed fingers (light skin tone)">

[Part 4] Juju’s Future?

• Big Ben is 38 & just signed a 2 year contract but Pittsburgh has a potential out after the 2020 season.

•JJSS is entering the 4th & final season of his contract and career.. so where to after?

• Tons of rumors point to Juju leaving, is it true?

[Part 5] Will Juju stay in PIT?

• Earlier this week, Ed Bouchette, (American Sportwriter, former writer for PIT, & member of Pro Football HOF selection committee) who’s a very credible source, reported that the Steelers are “not likely” to resign JJSS.

[Part 6] The Good https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="⬇️" title="Downwards arrow" aria-label="Emoji: Downwards arrow">

• Quality Draft Capital https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✔️" title="Heavy check mark" aria-label="Emoji: Heavy check mark"> (round 2)

In his first 2 seasons, Juju has the 5th most receptions in NFL history (169), only trailing MT, Jarvis, OBJ, & CMC https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👌🏻" title="Ok hand (light skin tone)" aria-label="Emoji: Ok hand (light skin tone)">

• JJSS is 8th ALL time in yardage in his first 2 seasons with 2,343 yards & 245 targets https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🔥" title="Fire" aria-label="Emoji: Fire">

[Part 7] The bad:

Year 3 consisted of AB’s departure + injuries.

• Ben missed the entire 2019 season after getting hurt week 2.

• Mason Rudolph had a 34.4 QBR & averaged 176 passing YPG in the 10 games he played in https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤐" title="Zipper-mouth face" aria-label="Emoji: Zipper-mouth face">

• He also had only 13 passing TD’s in those 10 games..

[Part 8] The Bad part 2!

• Devlin Hodges played in 8 games, had a 30.1 QBR, 5 TD’s and 8 Int’s.

• Averaged 132 passing YPG https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤢" title="Nauseated face" aria-label="Emoji: Nauseated face">

Back to JJSS https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="⬇️" title="Downwards arrow" aria-label="Emoji: Downwards arrow">

• Juju played one 12 games last year but played through some serious injuries.. posting a 42-552-3 statline.

[Part 9] What about AB?

• Sure it was extremely nice having AB distract the top corners & face double coverage to benefit Juju BUT are you telling me just any WR could get 169 targets without being something special?

• You dont crack 110 catches & 1400+ yards by accident!

[Part 10] Conclusion https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤝" title="Handshake" aria-label="Emoji: Handshake">

• Juju is 23, go out and take advantage of this “Buy Low” window.

• I don’t even mind overpaying a tad. If him & Ben are healthy all year, I expect a statline along the lines of: 75-1100-8

Side note: Go buy Diontae Johnson as well https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💰" title="Money bag" aria-label="Emoji: Money bag">
