I'm a huge Calvin Johnson fan (I goto GT and he help me kill people in NCAA football for the past two years LOL). I just want to see everyone's opinion on how he's going to do he's first season with the Lions.
Rookie of the Year/Pro Bowler!!!
Lions are better team with the CJ/Roy Williams combo.
He's really not that good.
He going to get injured.
Lions are still sorry as hell with him!
He's not going to do much this year.
Backs are going to get torched by him
NFL >>> CJ "Welcome to the Pros" LOL
He's going to held back (as if Reggie Balls was still he's QB)
Will set records as a rookie wr

hes a top 10 WR in his first year,and i think drew stanton is gonna be QB this year for lions
He's not the best WR. Just watch the UGA last year were he got shutdown. Now, Welcome to the PROS!!!

Nope. You just had to point out a game where UGA was involved. I'm not saying CJ is a great player, but he definitely is far from shoddy. Could be a Pro-Bowler? I think so. Hail, Gail Sayers, Walter Payton, Joe Montana all had bad games here and there. So what? Later, QD.Originally Posted by Tracer
he is to football of what tiger is to golfOriginally Posted by Tracer
yeah he got shut down.... with reggie ball and it was raining!Originally Posted by Tracer
When Michael Irving says your an amazing WR, your pretty fucking good. get ready for Calvin to be a household name in the years to come.
That may be, but as of right now he is a rookie. Look at Vernon Davis coming out of last year's draft. He was the best TE PROSPECT in the history of the NFL draft. He didn't do too hot his rookie season. This is not to say that he will never be great, but you can't just hand him the title.Originally Posted by Codeman1407

It's true Calvin was shut down by paul oliver and a couple other CBs from UGA. Every WR or any other football player has good day's and bad day's. I know cause ive been there b4. Will he be good in the pro's? Not much can be said, well cuz he hasnt even been through his 1st NFL 2-a-days. Personally, i think if he stay's consistent and learns the ropes, he will have a very bright future in the NFL.Originally Posted by Tracer
orly? and who were you signed by on draft day?Originally Posted by hondab118

i think he will do pretty good. not many people his size can jump as high as him, run as fast as him, or catch as well as him. being 240+ lbs, he'll be able to match up pretty nicely against grown men in the NFL.
i go to UGA and i didn't see him get "shut down." if tech had a better qb, we would've seen a much different game. CJ is considered by many analysts to be the best NCAA player in the NFL draft - even with a crappy QB, which says alot.He's not the best WR. Just watch the UGA last year were he got shutdown. Now, Welcome to the PROS!!!

TO+Marvin Harrison + randy moss = CJOriginally Posted by phongt12
haha he's no superman, but i'd say he's very close to Terrell Owens (minus the attitude). he'll probably surpass him in no time.Originally Posted by HypnoToad

At the NFL Combine, he picked up someone else's shoes and ran for fun, in a measly 4.4. Check out this video for probably one of his best career catches.Originally Posted by B
Who's throwing to CJ on the Lions? lol
they say he's "randy moss + jerry rice"....................... never know.
Drew stanton will be good in NFL
Calvin Johnson will NOT be a to 10 WR this season. You do know that Charles Rogers is the Lions #1 WR right? That means that CJ won't be thrown too as much as he would like. He won't have the stats and no one on IA can tell you how great he is going to be.

Calvin Johnson is definitely FTW. Without him GT would have been much worse. It sucks we didnt have a good qb to help him out.
