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
You know.. I've pondered this myself and personally I think he will be a better than average receiver in the NFL but nothing legendary. I do hope I am wrong but from what I've seen.. I do not see a Jerry Rice or Randy Moss.
Have you ever seen any of his games!
He was wr of the year with the worst qb you could have. On any other team he was this years heisman
Reggie Ball over threw the ball, under threw the ball, threw the ball to the left and right of him, but he manage Wr of the year. That tells you something right there.................. thats he's a special player
Just youtube him!
yall gotta be kidding me? ive been following calvin johnson all of his college career, and that man is amazing. anyone who has anything different to say better be jerry rice or some shit, cause nobody else can talk. and even then it's only a matter of time...
I thought in highschool, he was good, then college he got even better, who knows he may step it up again. He should have played baseball, he was better at that believe it or not.
I wouldn't say Ball was the worst QB. He has the talent, he just fucks up a bit. Needs more focus and training. When he's on, he's on. Reminds me of Vick in a way. Except Ball can throw. More. Now don't get me wrong, he isn't near the best, but he has potential. Later, QD.
FOR MORE INFO, CLICK THE PIC!!!
Yeah your right, I was just caught up in the moment. Reggie did pretty decent for most of this past season until the Clemson game. After that game we get win some more games, but he wasnt on it like he was at the beginning of the season.
Are you serious?
Let's just hand the man a ProBowl appearance and put his name on the HoF ballott before he even steps foot on an NFL field.
No shit. Nobody said anything about beating his touchdown receptions. At his current size, Johnson is taller (6'5'') and bigger (240 lbs) than Owens, while running at nearly the same speed. 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.
Terrell Ownes has like 114 career touchdowns. It will take a lot longer than "no time" to surpass TO.
So how is he going to "surpass" T.O.?

never know.............................................. ........... just look at what Da Prez (aka Reggie Bush) did last year.
All I can say is there's a reason why every team in the NFL wanted him and he's going to prove that soon................
So he is going to catch a bunch of swing passes out of the back field?
I am not saying that he won't be good, but he is not just going to walk into the league and become great over night. Left him do a crossing pattern in the NFL and get his head taken off a few times before you label him the GOAT.
I'm not claiming him as GOAT (some might but not me), but I do believe that he's the Labron of football
UHH Yea!! I think he will have one hell of a season, Great Athlete, but even better Person.
bc TO is on the randy moss plan, couple more yrs of fucking around in the league and he'll retire to working out in his driveway fulltime
CJ is that great if his health is as good as jerry's he will break his record at 6'5 240 there is not a CB in the league to match up to him. throw the ball in his direction and he will go get it. No offense to jerry rice or anything but the game is alot faster now then it was when he was in his prime.

Jerry Rice's records will stand for a long time.
right, just like walter payton's records stood for a long time, doesn't mean shit won't get broken though...
Wow, I think that is what I just said. A long time.
lol
never learned how to properly convey a point? tell'em, tell'em why you told'em, then tell'em again
Just started college. Sorry.
lol, apology accepted, now hit the books bish!
lol
may as well
Are you serious?

^^^lol
yeah he got shut down.... with reggie ball and it was raining!
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.
I will go ahead and hand him the award barring any kind of catastrophic injury.

To break Jerry Rice's records he would have to be injury free for about 15 years. Not going to happen.

THAT is the greatest of all time. Please tell me you people are not tr ying to give a rookie the title before the start of his first season?
The total TDs may not last very long, but the rest will.
The most consistant reciever since Jerry Rice has been Marvin Harrison. With 11 full seasons in the NFL, Harrison is still 527 receptions behind Rice. He is also 9,198 yards behind Rice. He has 122 TDs.
LaDainian Tomlinson has the best chance to break the total TD record. He is at 100 TDs in just 6 seasons. He would have to stay healthy for the next 4 years to do it.
The defense of the greatest wide reciever in NFL history rests, your honor.

im excited to see how cj does in the pros, being a tech student myself and all
haha my roommate had a chance to get his autograph, cj was signing this jersey that he had just bought, and as cj was signing it the sharpie ran out of ink hahahahaa
he told me it was the worst day thus far in his life LOL
calvin johnson is the shit fuck all u haters
You sir, are a moron. Although he may be "the shit" in college, this is the NFL. He may be good in the NFL too, but do you know how many draft busts there are per year?
i went to high school with him he dominated every sport he played including baseball great ball player
Whoever doubts Calvin Johnson hasn't been to a Georgia tech game and actually seen him play.
/////////////// haxing ///////////////
Yes, very good observation
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.
orly? and who were you signed by on draft day?
