both great receivers, DJ had a spectacular college career, he would off hav been drafted a lot higher if people would off stoped comparing to Mike Williams, that's what hurt him, but he'll hav some good seasons with the panther's since denfenses will hav to worry about steve smith (the other non USC steve smith)
dj shouldve gone first. he is waaaaaaaaaaay better than calvin. before the draft, i ve never even heard of cj. im tired of the dj- mike williams comparisons. dj is a lot smarter, and actually faster. dont be fooled by 40 times. because if its based on that , than jery rice shouldve gone in the second day w/ his 4.6 in the combine
i like both guys but the stats have dj being better shouldnt matter cuz dj had a great qb and calvin had a bad one but overall they both could be superstars and the panthers got a steal in dj in the second round
It's called "Come with me" by Puff Daddy. Jimmy Page actually played guitar and produced the song for him, so you can't say that Puffy didn't redo it without permission.
i dont get why everyone is screaming for calvin johnson
yes he is a great player but most people who are like OH CALVIN JOHNSON! started liking him when they saw him on tv around march when everyone was getting hyped about the draft.
truth is dwayne jarret was alot more consistent throughout but calvin just made alot more highlight reel plays
They say Dwayne Jarret is as good as Mike Williams.. Some of you may not remember him (hahaha), but he is the guy who left college early with Maurice Clarett and got REJECTED! Long story short Dwayne Jarret wont have a good rating in madden... :o) And yes I know im from jersey too!
Dwayne Jarret had the better QB in his career. Give Calvin Johnson that arm he'd avg 3 TD a quarter and win Heisman every year by a land slide since his freshman season. Real Talk!
wideout Heyward-Bey of the terps is the fastest wr in colleGe football now that CALVIN IS GONE is gone, bey can run a 4.2 and his 6-2 210 MARYLAND BEST TEAM IN THE ACC
why don't you guys admit DJ is better the stats are right there and you still say hes better and common CJ was a senior this year DJ was just a junior.
one thing i cant figure out is dj ran a 4.6 which got people to cool down on him, yet he dominated leon hall, and had good games against the pac 10s top corners, and they had alot of em..
This song is called "Come with me". However, Puff Daddy shamelessly stole the hook from Led Zeppelins "Cashmere". I will spare you from my thoughts on this.
when u look at the players face u can tell if they gona be bad or good. when i saw ryan leaf i said omg BUST! when i look at dj i say this guy is gona kick some ass.man if dj is a bust i dont no how im gona eat teh words
ok, jarrett is not this great route runner, or at least not that much better than cj. his hands are not a whole lot better than cj's. he doesn't play physical, thats a fact. and having a terrible qb affects a receiver, see moss in oakland. cj is gonna tear it up with martz. kitna threw for 4200 yds. i called it, you watch.
i think dwayne jarret didnt get drafted higher because he doesnt have that extra gear that cj has. those scouts mainly look at speed. otherwise dj would have gotten drafted higher. but he is the better Reciever .
actually i had a lot of points, but for some odd reason they weren't all posted as you can noticed what i put up on this site was a continuation from a post i wrote that was too long...
Yeah the route running of Jarrett is exceptional, there was this one route he did against Oregon, one of the most amazing head fake and swift cut route I have ever seen. When I look at Johnson I see a Randy Moss type player, who doesn't necessarily run good routes but uses his athletic ability to get what he wants. He is amazingly athletic but that doesn't make for a great receiver.
I'm looking at routes, cuts, hands, separation and elusiveness, which all define who is a better player. You guys are looking at leaping ability, build, QB's, 40's, attitudes and someone even said he was better because he was 6'5. They are both 6'5. Those are just numbers, you can be the most athletic person in the world but that doesn't make you a better player than someone. This is why your arguments fail miserably. Can we get some people in here who actually know "football" and not "ESPN".
We are talking college football here, not the NFL. DJ had better numbers because he is the better receiver and is more fundamentally sound than CJ. All you people look at is, Jarrett had Leinart and Johnson had Reggie Ball. Which is the main basis of your already pathetic arguments. The smart people look at what they do on the field.
(Continued)you said,"you haven't said one god damn valid thing to support your argument. It's al "he's bigger, he's faster, he has a very high vertical leap, his QB sucks". None of those make you a better player" Think of all-time great wide-receivers and TELL ME THE QB'S THROWING TO THEM ARE NOT IN OR GOING TO THE HALL OF FAME Swann-Bradshaw,Rice-Montana/Young,Freeman/Favre,Smith-Elway,Irvin-Aikman,having a great QB makes you a better Receiver,afterall they get you the ball (cont)
I do feel bad for CJ though, he has some of the most ignorant people defending him. God damn, I'm reading these replies and wondering if you all have ever seen a football game in your life. These comments are so asinine it isn't even funny.
Again, ignorant people, speed is not everything. The very best players in the game and the very best WR to ever play the game are not fast. This is why your arguments fail, you haven't said one god damn valid thing to support your argument. It's al "he's bigger, he's faster, he has a very high vertical leap, his QB sucks". None of those make you a better player. But having better hands, route running skills and abilities to get open do.
you're saying rice wasn't fast? he wasn't a timed speed guy, he had game speed. watch film when he was in his prime, he ran away from corners. and speed matters, steve smith, chad johnson, marvin harrison, terrell owens, torry holt, and on and on. its not everything, but it augments the game to have breakaway speed and force the other team to play a safety over the top. jarret will get shut down untl he plays physical.
i do agree with the sc fans that DJ has better technique, better hands, better route running than johnson, but i don't think his skills are better than johnson to overcome johnson's athletic advantage. Johnson has good hands too, and can run routes when committed to it. also if DJ had played every game this past year his and johnson's numbers would have been very similar, with johnson in a worse system and getting more attention from defenders.
I'd take CJ... He was the only REAL threat GT had... DJ was lucky to play at USC who sends ALL of their starting skill players to the NFL meaning teams cant just key in on one player like they did GT... added to the fact Pac-10 teams have less than stellar defenses when compared to the ACC and CJ was still able to put up impressive numbers with a bottom-tier quarterback... But in the NFL its a diff story i still bet CJ is better
The question is not who's faster, it's who is better. We all know and will admit that Johnson is faster. but like the smart ones have said, speed is not everything. Both are great receivers but Jarrett has Johnson in hands, route running and getting open. Like someone said earlier, leaping abilty, speed, and strength are not what make you a better "player". I think people fail to realize this.
Jarrett is NOT stronger than Johnson. Johnson has better hands, is faster (4.35 40 compared to DJ's 4.62), and is bigger. One of the knocks on DJ is that even though he is big, he does not get off the line when a corner jams him. I do think that they will both be great recievers, but as of now, Calvin Johnson is clearly the better reciever. Also keep in mind that CJ made all those plays with a QB who is actually a WR (R. Ball), whereas DJ played with Leinart and Booty.
CJ has evreything you cant teach while DJ has only things you can teach exept size. When CJ gets coached up(who was his coach in collage, and if i remeber correctly DJ has a O coordanator who is a head coach now) he will beat evrey one who tries to single him which will happen a lot due to my boy on the other side.(USC recruters are cheaters...Reggie Bush)Talk about over hyped look at Bush... For all the USC fans remember Vince Young
jarret may be stronger and can break more tackles but johnson has better acceleration and can out run the defenseive backs..so when he catches a pass all he has to do is cut up field and hes gone...but idk they look pretty even
Calvin Johnson is better, period. He had a half retarded monkey at quarterback and still dominated... Jarrett played with the best passer in the country for 2 years and a top passer for the last one.
Dwayne Jarrett played for probably the 2nd most prominent football program and he still went 45th. Calvin Johnson played for Georgia Tech and he went 2nd. The reason Moss and Owens didn't go in the top 10 because they went to small schools like Marshall and Tennessee-Chattanooga not USC.
actually moss went kinda later because teams were afraid of his off field/character issues, of which johnson has shown none of. dj has gotten into some minor off-field trouble and has also shown he's not as humble as johnson.
Calvin is bigger stronger and faster than Jarrett so he breaks tackles easier.
DJ has better focus not hands, when Calvin focuses on catching the ball he is going to catch it, even if DJ didn't have a fumble doesn't mean he didn't have dropped balls.
There is no denying that both have all the intangibles, but really Trey can you honestly say if you were a GM you would want anyone but Calvin playing receiver for you. Route running and hands have been your only arguements, both can be fixed. Work ethic and athletic ability cannot.
Work ethnic cannot be corrected? I know for a fact that DJ trains hard, don't know how CJ is but worth ethic can easily be fixed. Athletic ability doesn't mean you are the better player, but better hands and route running does.
You can argue this is because Jarrett had Smith and Bush, to a degree it's true but this also made it so that no defense could key in on Jarrett. Johnson had PJ Daniels??? Tashard Choice (an Oklahoma reject)??? Lavon Thomas??? Demarius Bilbo (a quarterback turned WR for one year)??? and James Johnson??? In my opinion both are great, both will be great, but Jarrett has sure had a much easier path to greatness.
In Jarrett's best year he caught 15 more passes on 112 more pass attempts than Johnson did in his best year. I left out yard totals because Calvin averaged more yards per catch then Jarrett every year.
It is nearly impossible to compare these two, for both are great in their own respects, but here are some numbers for you to think about. In their careers USC attempted 179 more pass attempts than GT. Jarrett only caught 38 more balls. With equal chances I would imagine their career receptions would have been much closer.
Actually, if you watched enough game footage of CJ, you would see that he also had problems getting off the line on press coverage. That was a flaw that both of these receivers had.
DJ is sold but CJ is still better... I watched some footage from NFL network when DJ was working against Chris Houston (2nd round draft pick bout 5'11' 185 lbs)... DJ couldnt even get off the jam vs an NFL calibur corner and seeing how there are a lot of even bigger physical corners in the NFL thanks to the tampa 2 scheme, i dont see DJ making any impact soon unless he can learn to get off the jam thus giving the explosiveness of CJ the edge over DJ...
jap 45 shut up homie, you a dumfuk, you could ask anyone in LA about GT and they always say the same thing who is GT?, lol but I bet everyone in yo hood know who the Trojans are you guys will never have the depth that USC has, Choke on that you dum son of a bitch,lolololololol, Fight On!
I'm actually from Florida and I like the Hurricanes. Have you heard of them? I thought so. I don't think that this has anything to do with who has a better program. Of course USC is a better program than GT. GT just had a better receiver than USC did and you don't want to accept it. Go Canes!
take away cj speed and he could say bye bye to the second overal pick. dj had beter jumping, footawarness, and runs better routs than cj, all crucial to be great in the nfl. and have you all not seen the video of dj burning leon hall? if you say dj doesnt play as good of corners than u smooke pot. theres a reason leon was the first cb taken.
yeah because there were no blue chip prospects at cb, the cb class sucked this year
next year it will be better hoping that talib and cason play up to their abilities
cj is blessed with speed but he still has the same work ethic that jerry rice had and heart, plus alot more skills
cj was on a run more then pass offense, a sucky one at that, reggie ball are you kidding me? the main reason why rod/millen took the guy because of his heart,character and work ethic
I like Hawaii's QB a lot...because he doesn't have many weapons and he has some steller numbers. DJ is a possession type wideout who should do fine on the Panthers if they get a better QB eventually, while CJ is an overall very similar to TO's style of playing...he can do EVERYTHING! I predict DJ to have a better career...always a stud from NJ and always will be...go trojans!!!
are you serious? you predict dj to have a better career? especially when cj is in a pass happy offense and under a top 5 receiver? and under a OC one of the best with receivers and qbs?
Did you ever stop to think that the reason why Booty put up those numbers is because he had DJ and Steve Smith? You are making Booty out to be a HOF for the sake of your argument. He isn't proven, not just yet. And take my word for it, I watch every single SC game from beginning to the end.
See this is how I know you don't know what your talking about. USC played Arkansas, Michigan, Notre Dame, Nebraska, Oregon and CAL. That's 6 top 25 ranked teams and 3 of them top 10. I didn't even include the 2 teams that beat them that ended up being in the top 25. If I did that would be a total of 8 top 25 ranked teams.
Go look at the final rankings. That's what I'm going by, not the mid-season crap that you are talking about. I'm pretty sure you don't have an argument for the quarterback situtation do you buddy? That definately was an edge for Dwayne and Calvin had a guy that completed about 44 percent of his passes compared to JD Booty's 62 percent.
If you think CJ played against better competition then you are 100% wrong. Trojans played the top teams every single year. Teams ranked in the top 10 multiple times a year, the best defenses in the NCAA. I don't care about this PAC-10 vs ACC, fact of the matter is DJ played against tougher opponents, that isn't even in question. And he shitted on every singe one of them.
All I have to say is that this past year CJ had more yards, touchdowns, and catches. Bye the way, Dwayne had a heisman quality quarterback and CJ had Reggie Ball. Reggie Ball is horrible and I can't believe CJ could rack up the stats that he did. And about all the "top 10 teams" your trojans played exactly ONE, Michigan. So, nice try on all this top competition crap. GT played a top 10 team as well and a total of 5 ranked teams.
Calvin Johnson is going to the better situation. He is going to be put into the Mike Martz system which everyone knows is about 65-70 percent pass. CJ also has guy across from him that racked up over 1300 yards last year. This tells me that the defenses won't be able to double both, they will have to pick their poison. This means that CJ is going to have plenty of one-on-one opportunities.
However, Like Bolts said, DJ is going to a better situation. If the new Panthers offensive coordinator can incorperate him in the offense and keep his offensive line healthy to take the pressure off of Jake Delhomme, they'll be a playoff team again.
Perhaps Calvin Johnson is the next Reggie Bush, except he's a reciever. I'm a big fan of the lions, and I hope that next year they can even out their wins and losses a little bit.
numbers are misleading. DJ has a better proven qb than CJ had, if CJ had the same caliber qb as DJ then I think CJ's numbers would've been near equal or higher than DJ. But let's wait for the SEASON to begin and we'll see who proves who wrong.
I think both of them will break out their first or second year. Personally I'm uber suprised Dwayne Jarrett slipped into the 2nd round. Sure he doesn't have the physical capabilities that Calvin Johnson had, but try telling the 5,9 Steve Smith that. He got drafted in the 3rd round and six years later he's arguably the best reciever in the NFL to date.
Nigga u don't know whachu talkin bout. U prolly only seen him play like 3 times plus u seen all da highlights on ESPN and think he's the greatest. DJ will have the better career.
So all receivers who come out of USC are bust? And you are basing this off what? Mike Williams? He has only been in the league for 2 seasons and that is only 1 receiver. You know nothing and I challenge you to name somebody else. Comin on here thinkin you know somethin.
Why does everyone insist that CJ doesn't have good hands. Some said earlier that by looking at vidoe you can see that jarrett has better hands...what is there a clip a Clavin dropping a pass?
No they are just talking crap. Both are tremendous athletes, Johnson is just bigger and faster so he obviously has more NFL potential. You cant knock Jarrett, he proved it on he field. Bottom line is these guys are better at football than any of you haters will ever be at anything, so shut you fat mouths.
I'm surprised a USC reciever was drafted before round 6. one thing is for certain USC wide recievers= bust or head case. NFL combine offical measurements on CJ 6'5". DJ should have stayed at USC. Now he will have to take a pay cut when he signs his contract.
ya right. CJ is so much better than DJ athleticly. If you are serious that dj is better than cj, i dont even know what to say. there is a reason that CJ went second in the draft and jarret went wherever he went.
i aint a jarrett hater man, but the only thing that he beats CJ with is that he's aggressive when catching the ball, he can really grab it out of the air or even out of a cornerback's hands, but other than that CJ has the edge in every other aspect of the game
Like I said before, CJ has been held to 0 catches twice in the last 2 years. The nigga is not as unstoppable as you idiots think. He hasn't playd against a top corner also. DJ is a smarter route runner and for God sake, did ya'll niggaz watch the Rose Bowl?
So are you saying that those weak PAC-10 corners are better than the corners in the ACC. You are wrong and I can't believe that you would even say that. There is a reason that the PAC-10 offenses make things look so easy...its because they are. Look at the defensive players drafted on a yearly basis and you will see that there are hardly any PAC-10 defensive players drafted compared to the ACC.
CJ compares to randy moss while DJ compares to keyshawn johnson, now who's better moss or johnson? i think its pretty obvious that cj while have a bigger impact than dwayne jarrett.

I do feel bad for CJ though, he has some of the most ignorant people defending him. God damn, I'm reading these replies and wondering if you all have ever seen a football game in your life. These comments are so asinine it isn't even funny.
USCandLAKERS 4 years ago
Again, ignorant people, speed is not everything. The very best players in the game and the very best WR to ever play the game are not fast. This is why your arguments fail, you haven't said one god damn valid thing to support your argument. It's al "he's bigger, he's faster, he has a very high vertical leap, his QB sucks". None of those make you a better player. But having better hands, route running skills and abilities to get open do.
USCandLAKERS 4 years ago
you're saying rice wasn't fast? he wasn't a timed speed guy, he had game speed. watch film when he was in his prime, he ran away from corners. and speed matters, steve smith, chad johnson, marvin harrison, terrell owens, torry holt, and on and on. its not everything, but it augments the game to have breakaway speed and force the other team to play a safety over the top. jarret will get shut down untl he plays physical.

i do agree with the sc fans that DJ has better technique, better hands, better route running than johnson, but i don't think his skills are better than johnson to overcome johnson's athletic advantage. Johnson has good hands too, and can run routes when committed to it. also if DJ had played every game this past year his and johnson's numbers would have been very similar, with johnson in a worse system and getting more attention from defenders.
itsabird 4 years ago
I'd take CJ... He was the only REAL threat GT had... DJ was lucky to play at USC who sends ALL of their starting skill players to the NFL meaning teams cant just key in on one player like they did GT... added to the fact Pac-10 teams have less than stellar defenses when compared to the ACC and CJ was still able to put up impressive numbers with a bottom-tier quarterback... But in the NFL its a diff story i still bet CJ is better
ASM06 4 years ago
The question is not who's faster, it's who is better. We all know and will admit that Johnson is faster. but like the smart ones have said, speed is not everything. Both are great receivers but Jarrett has Johnson in hands, route running and getting open. Like someone said earlier, leaping abilty, speed, and strength are not what make you a better "player". I think people fail to realize this.

maxlyger 4 years ago
Jarrett is NOT stronger than Johnson. Johnson has better hands, is faster (4.35 40 compared to DJ's 4.62), and is bigger. One of the knocks on DJ is that even though he is big, he does not get off the line when a corner jams him. I do think that they will both be great recievers, but as of now, Calvin Johnson is clearly the better reciever. Also keep in mind that CJ made all those plays with a QB who is actually a WR (R. Ball), whereas DJ played with Leinart and Booty.
Lockdown21X 4 years ago
how about dwayne jarret actually has a decent quaterback throwing so all he has to do is catch and run!
watch calvin johnson!
he stops while running full speed and jumps backwards to catch an under thrown ball!
he actually makes things happen.

Dwayne Jarrett played for probably the 2nd most prominent football program and he still went 45th. Calvin Johnson played for Georgia Tech and he went 2nd. The reason Moss and Owens didn't go in the top 10 because they went to small schools like Marshall and Tennessee-Chattanooga not USC.
gtboy453 4 years ago
actually moss went kinda later because teams were afraid of his off field/character issues, of which johnson has shown none of. dj has gotten into some minor off-field trouble and has also shown he's not as humble as johnson.

Jarret breaks tackles, so he could get more big plays
dannyboy1200 4 years ago
Calvin is bigger stronger and faster than Jarrett so he breaks tackles easier.
DJ has better focus not hands, when Calvin focuses on catching the ball he is going to catch it, even if DJ didn't have a fumble doesn't mean he didn't have dropped balls.
gtboy453 4 years ago
Well it could be the fact that Calvin has more drops, Jarrett catches everything thrown his way and has NEVER had a single fumble in 3 years at USC.
TreyVfromLBCisBACK 4 years ago
There is no denying that both have all the intangibles, but really Trey can you honestly say if you were a GM you would want anyone but Calvin playing receiver for you. Route running and hands have been your only arguements, both can be fixed. Work ethic and athletic ability cannot.
ramblinwreck24 4 years ago
Work ethnic cannot be corrected? I know for a fact that DJ trains hard, don't know how CJ is but worth ethic can easily be fixed. Athletic ability doesn't mean you are the better player, but better hands and route running does.
TreyVfromLBCisBACK 4 years ago
1. Hey ramblinwreck24, why r u dissin' on tashard...he lead the ACC in rushing last year.
2. How does Jarrett have better hands...what has brought you to that conclusion?
gtboy453 4 years ago
You can argue this is because Jarrett had Smith and Bush, to a degree it's true but this also made it so that no defense could key in on Jarrett. Johnson had PJ Daniels??? Tashard Choice (an Oklahoma reject)??? Lavon Thomas??? Demarius Bilbo (a quarterback turned WR for one year)??? and James Johnson??? In my opinion both are great, both will be great, but Jarrett has sure had a much easier path to greatness.
ramblinwreck24 4 years ago
In Jarrett's best year he caught 15 more passes on 112 more pass attempts than Johnson did in his best year. I left out yard totals because Calvin averaged more yards per catch then Jarrett every year.
ramblinwreck24 4 years ago
It is nearly impossible to compare these two, for both are great in their own respects, but here are some numbers for you to think about. In their careers USC attempted 179 more pass attempts than GT. Jarrett only caught 38 more balls. With equal chances I would imagine their career receptions would have been much closer.

Actually, if you watched enough game footage of CJ, you would see that he also had problems getting off the line on press coverage. That was a flaw that both of these receivers had.
TreyVfromLBCisBACK 4 years ago
DJ is sold but CJ is still better... I watched some footage from NFL network when DJ was working against Chris Houston (2nd round draft pick bout 5'11' 185 lbs)... DJ couldnt even get off the jam vs an NFL calibur corner and seeing how there are a lot of even bigger physical corners in the NFL thanks to the tampa 2 scheme, i dont see DJ making any impact soon unless he can learn to get off the jam thus giving the explosiveness of CJ the edge over DJ...

take away cj speed and he could say bye bye to the second overal pick. dj had beter jumping, footawarness, and runs better routs than cj, all crucial to be great in the nfl. and have you all not seen the video of dj burning leon hall? if you say dj doesnt play as good of corners than u smooke pot. theres a reason leon was the first cb taken.

yeah because there were no blue chip prospects at cb, the cb class sucked this year
next year it will be better hoping that talib and cason play up to their abilities
cj is blessed with speed but he still has the same work ethic that jerry rice had and heart, plus alot more skills
cj was on a run more then pass offense, a sucky one at that, reggie ball are you kidding me? the main reason why rod/millen took the guy because of his heart,character and work ethic

I like Hawaii's QB a lot...because he doesn't have many weapons and he has some steller numbers.

I predict DJ to have a better career...always a stud from NJ and always will be...go trojans!!!

See this is how I know you don't know what your talking about. USC played Arkansas, Michigan, Notre Dame, Nebraska, Oregon and CAL. That's 6 top 25 ranked teams and 3 of them top 10. I didn't even include the 2 teams that beat them that ended up being in the top 25. If I did that would be a total of 8 top 25 ranked teams.

Go look at the final rankings. That's what I'm going by, not the mid-season crap that you are talking about. I'm pretty sure you don't have an argument for the quarterback situtation do you buddy? That definately was an edge for Dwayne and Calvin had a guy that completed about 44 percent of his passes compared to JD Booty's 62 percent.

If you think CJ played against better competition then you are 100% wrong. Trojans played the top teams every single year. Teams ranked in the top 10 multiple times a year, the best defenses in the NCAA. I don't care about this PAC-10 vs ACC, fact of the matter is DJ played against tougher opponents, that isn't even in question. And he shitted on every singe one of them.
TreyVfromLBCisBACK 4 years ago
Va Tech ha thebest defence in the nation last year...
CJ had 6 catches for 115 and 2 TDs, all because Va Tech didnt have their best defensive lineman to get reggie ball to be terrible
gtboy453 4 years ago
All I have to say is that this past year CJ had more yards, touchdowns, and catches. Bye the way, Dwayne had a heisman quality quarterback and CJ had Reggie Ball. Reggie Ball is horrible and I can't believe CJ could rack up the stats that he did. And about all the "top 10 teams" your trojans played exactly ONE, Michigan. So, nice try on all this top competition crap. GT played a top 10 team as well and a total of 5 ranked teams.
jap41 4 years ago
Calvin Johnson is going to the better situation. He is going to be put into the Mike Martz system which everyone knows is about 65-70 percent pass. CJ also has guy across from him that racked up over 1300 yards last year. This tells me that the defenses won't be able to double both, they will have to pick their poison. This means that CJ is going to have plenty of one-on-one opportunities.
jap41 4 years ago
However, Like Bolts said, DJ is going to a better situation. If the new Panthers offensive coordinator can incorperate him in the offense and keep his offensive line healthy to take the pressure off of Jake Delhomme, they'll be a playoff team again.
Perhaps Calvin Johnson is the next Reggie Bush, except he's a reciever. I'm a big fan of the lions, and I hope that next year they can even out their wins and losses a little bit.
Muddypantsjo 4 years ago
numbers are misleading. DJ has a better proven qb than CJ had, if CJ had the same caliber qb as DJ then I think CJ's numbers would've been near equal or higher than DJ. But let's wait for the SEASON to begin and we'll see who proves who wrong.
SEEKRET 4 years ago
I think both of them will break out their first or second year. Personally I'm uber suprised Dwayne Jarrett slipped into the 2nd round. Sure he doesn't have the physical capabilities that Calvin Johnson had, but try telling the 5,9 Steve Smith that. He got drafted in the 3rd round and six years later he's arguably the best reciever in the NFL to date.
Muddypantsjo 4 years ago
Dwayne Jarret is coming into a much better situation than Calvin, and i fucking love calvin johnson lol
but hes got another Wr who will force the other teams to concentrate on him (Steve Smith)
so that gives more DJ more opprutunitys
