POLL: T-Billy Waived by Raiders. Should We Sign Him?

[Topcat]

Tyron "T-Billy" Johnson has been waived by the Raiders. Should we sign him? With KA, Palmer and Guyton injured lately, I say why not? Not only that, but Guyton was our only real deep threat, and now he's out for the season. Come on, TT, do the deal!

[jamrock]

Yes it’s a gift

[Craig440]

He had zero drops and several great catches with us. I say why not give it a go.

[Maniaque 6]

It begins to look like Billy Martin saga in New York !

[ChargersPowderBlue]

Why did Staley cut him? Would he want him back?

Maybe Herbert could lobby for TJ back, because he connected with him.

[gzubeck]

I said maybe. Why? I'd like to have him catch 3 TD's against the raiders just to rub it in their faces. LOL!

[21&500]

No.
he's too fast.
And doesn't play ST.
well, except when he's stripping the ball from Andre Roberts in a must-win game.

So no.

[Boltjolt]

Why not? He knows the system. I've no idea what's up with him but if the coaches don't have a personality clash with him, with Guyton out, sure.

I don't think he will play more than Guyton did but I'd rather have him than Moore.

Nahh just give me more Bandy. TBilly sux

So no.

You could argue that cutting Johnson may have cost us two games last year. His speed might have made difference against HOU when Guyton was Williams were out and we could not take advantage of a vulnerable HOU secondary and, of course, as you noted, in the LV game where he was as responsible as anyone for ending our season by forcing the Roberts fumble.

[Guest]

Of course, we should sign Johnson. He is cheap, fast and works well with Herbert. We have zero plus WR speed without him.

[jubei]

for sure. we got NO speed at WR. cant stretch the field with what we have.
