    even the threat of AJ being on the field is more of an impact than hunter is.

    To play WR would be another reason.

    He can't separate from anybody...he can still catch, but that's it

    I think it was a pointless signing, but it's almost august, so time to be optimistic:

    With MMs accuracy, maybe he can mitigate the separation issues. We know MM can thread the needle, so as long as AJ can hit his spots on time, MM can get him the ball ... and AJ should be able to catch it.

    Not gonna take the top off the defense, but could have a role as a reliable possession WR for us. Could help convert those 3rd downs.

    Last year AJ played with Garbage QBS. Even Luck isn't all that accurate, so AJs separation issues may have been magnified.

    And he still put up numbers better than most of our guys. I think he could catch 50 balls for 500 yards this year ... not bad if he is the 3rd or 4th option

    Nothing exciting here, I think AJ's tank is on "E" but you never know, maybe he can can catch a little lightning in a bottle and give us a little of the old AJ for a little bit. Worst case maybe he can help mentor DGB and a be a good locker room presence.

    We can't be using a roster spot just so AJ can mentor someone. Same goes for any other position.

    This guy is on his way to the HOF, eighth in yards all time. He had over forty catches last year working with third stringers. I can appreciate the mentoring angle, to me I want some of our younger players to see what a real player looks and acts like. His focus and preparation will freak out half of our Corp.
