[@Killacam1992]

Chase has so much potential and natural talent.. If dude wouldve just humbled himself, taken ownership and accountability, focused on working hard and kept his mouth shut he probably couldve turned things around.. you could have all the talent, potential and god given physical traits in the world but if your ego and character isnt in check it can destroy you.. we've seen that all to often from people at the bottom, all the way up at the highest top and everything in between.. no matter what you do in life if you want to succeed you need a strong foundation and that starts with character..

[@mandarinandthetenrings2201]

Football is a lot like boxing. If you can't take a punch you not going do well. There is a lot guys that look like Sugar Ray Lenard in the gym, but they get hit in nose they start to whine and fall apart. Chase does not like to get physical that the problem. Even when being tackled hard it bothers him. It ok not everyone has a high tolerance to pain.

[@Sandro_martino]

I’m a Steelers fan and that Vikings game ruined Chase. We were down 0-29 by halftime. We came down to the final minute only down by 8 points….what a bone head move. Lost all our respect, didn’t care about the city, the team, Big Ben, nothing. I’m pleased the Khan Artist traded him for Joey Porter Jr

[@JETSFAN2017]

I mean to be fair they shouldn’t have went down 29-0 lol

[@mandarinandthetenrings2201]

No Sandro, you could see Chase doesn't have a high tolerance to pain. That's normal by the way. It not that he doesn't care but he not wired to fight through the pain. He just need to go into a profession that's more right for him.

[@willr4880]

I mean, technically we didn't trade him for jpj. We traded him for thier draft pick, which in return was jpj

Don't know why LeVeon, Antonio, and Chase quit on Big Ben. BB was a winner.

[@ayewhaddupdoe]

@@encinobalboa You spelled "rapist" wrong.

[@ccm00007]

Claypool being Canadian is more important than most people realize. CFL teams have to have a minimum of Canadian players on their roster. Having Claypool as a WR would free up an international roster spot. Even if it's unlikely to work, this is a smart move by the Roughriders.

[@joes4987]

There is phenomenal talent coming into the NFL every year, people would do anything to be given the opportunity to be part of an NFL team. Claypool didn't just have 1 chance, not 2, but 3! And all 3 didn't work out. Good luck to him, but way too much other talent out there that will take advantage of the once in a lifetime opportunity.

​@@idawg7332Probably didn't trust or believe in him

Mike, the Bears traded their own second round pick for Chase Claypool, which ended up being #32* overall (I forgot the Dolphins forfeited their own first). They used the second round pick they got for Smith on a defensive tackle.

[@nathanboyd7968]

Claypool is now Joey Porter Jr 🔥

[@trappenweisseguy27]

I saw his head get big as all outdoors after just his first 3-4 NFL games.

[@tod3msn]

Let me say a few things because I know what I am talking about when it comes to the CFL. First of all, this a life saver for Chase Claypool. He clearly was an immature unfocused football player. Tell me you were never immature and unfocused. He is Canadian. The CFL loves home country players and will make it easy for the Roughriders to bring Chase Claypool in for a "look see." This is not a pathetic last ditch dark hole in space but rather the oldest sports league in existence. NFL great Doug Flutie resurrected his career after losing out to Jim McMahon in the CFL and came back to play in Buffalo and San Diego. QB 49er Jeff Garcia played in the CFL to play in the NFL. Warren Moon played in the CFL to go on to play in the NFL. Bud Grant coached in the CFL. Marc Trestman coached a Grey Cup winning three Grey Cups (CFL Super Bowl). The best thing that could happen to Claypool os to mature and get serious and go to the CFL to prove he means business.

[@hunterwyatt1823]

Damn….. dude got a bag and fucked off

[@Bardmusic66]

I think he was on rookie scale the whole time, so not really cashing in. He blew it.

[@uncommonsense4816]

[@craigburghardt8604]

As someone who lives in Saskatchewan, I am biased and I like the idea of Chase coming back to Canada. While we on the topic of Canadian in the NFL . . . Nathan Rourke is a flat out baller and New England fans, I hope your team does not squander that talent.

[@lazzy2012]

Moose Jaw !

[@DasBoot83]

Eh, I don't think I'd like him in Sask. His work ethic isn't there and he'd just take a WR spot for no reason. On the other hand, maybe a change of scenery and less pressure could bring some of his potential out.

[@bill57board]

Money is peanuts in the CFL. Maybe that would be the ego buster he needs.

[@James-hk4fo]

you should do a mock draft

[@cigardude7]

Claypool was one of my favorite WR in recent years with the Steelers. Seems a lot of bad apples fall out of Pittsburgh after a few years. JuJu, Brown, Bell, Washington and as far back as Mike Wallace if anyone remembers. What I miss about the Steelers is the franchise type players they used to retain for 5 - 10 seasons. That really made it feel like "your team" every season. Now we are just like any other team making trades and not spending time with the good talent to help them grown professionally and personally. I have been saying for the past two seasons; bring Claypool back. Bring JuJu back and hell, bring Bell back as a way to refresh Harris and Warren. And lets not get into our QB situation... Great video. Puts a lot into perspective. Thanks!

[@jojoradio24]

I do agree with you on everything. However, it does seem as the narrator also mentioned that the Steelers org tends to be able to squeeze all the juice out of the players before releasing or trading them. If we know it and see it, the players do too. I think psychologically, they know they’re done too once they leave the burg. I can’t name 3 players who have left the Steelers within the past 10 years who went on to become pro-bowlers or MVPs. Idk what bringing back those older players would do to the culture of the team. Might not be worth it..? Corrupt minds can change the interior of any org.

[@jackreacher2095]

Cam Heyward has been with the team for a decade .

[@cigardude7]

For sure. No questions there. He is one of the last standing.

[@jimmyz2098]

That's because that organization, and that HC do not deal with this kind of crap.

[@timdj9826]

The bills just picked him up, which is what brought me here. Im not too hopeful on the move but im trying to look at it with more of a glass half full prospective. Hopefully he wants to prove all teams wrong for not wanting him & he uses it as the motivation he needs although he had no shortness of that prior to this..... but we'll see. Go Bills

[@aswinprasad1011]

I hope college WRs learn from Claypool. Just because you are hyped out coming into the nfl, doesn’t mean anything. You still need to be humble and prove yourself.

[@nytess2]

As a Steeler fan I loved Chase in his rookie year. I actually thought about getting his jersey. Then he was traded.....At first I was like wtf? Then it hit me...Its the Steelers somethings wrong with him time to move on.

[@derekknight9789]

CLAYPOOL is the perfect slotback for the CFL (Slot Reciever) plus he is a NON-IMPORT which is very nice.

[@spaceo8568]

As a Steelers fan, I've noticed in the last 20 years, every time a player leaves, under whatever circumstance, and they go to another team after thriving in Pittsburgh, they don't really go on to do much. AB got another ring with Tampa Bay, sure, but that was Tom Brady's Tampa Bay, so I don't count that one. And he was a huge loss, but it is what it is. Going back with players like Antoine Randel El and Plaxico Burress, players like Santanio Homes, Willie Parker and Le'Veon Bell, they were solid and on their way, then they leave and wtf happens? They usually scrub out, maybe float around, and then retire. (I guess maybe JuJu. I miss him so much.) Count your mf-ing blessings to be apart of this organization. The stability of it alone is worth it. Three head coaches in 60 years. A culture that has not wavered or waned since the inception of the NFL, a fan base that cannot be moved even through the really tough years (all though like any other team you got fairweathers and cry babies, they aren't the REAL Steeler Nation). I just don't understand but I guess it is different speaking as a fan and not a player. But I just don't get it. How many players does Pittsburgh have in the HOF that played their entire career for this one team? (Genuine question cuz I don't feel like googling.) Idk. I just don't get it from where I sit.

[@herbertcollins5925]

Honestly the Chiefs should pick him up for the league minimum and see if he can fit

[@michaelwloos]

Mike, it's not "very unique," it's just "unique." Unique means one of a kind. It's not very one of a kind, it's just one of a kind. It's just unique.

I’m a Chicago fan my favorite college team is Notre Dame Claypool was fucking phenomenal with the fighting Irish to see him go from greatness to garbage because of a mental state. It’s sad bro it’s sad wasted talent wasted fucking talent. He’s he’s washed his wash he’s done.

[@OccipitalVision]

Since the Dolphins are talking with Boyd (who may have an opportunity to go to Buffalo) and OBJ, resigning Barrios and Cracraft, I dont think he stays unless he is on a min contract. I think he's had a good wake up call and has the size and skill to be talented, but I think he needs a reset at this point as his head isn't in the game especially with the influence he allowed to affect him early on in his career.

[@balleredits69]

[@kenschreiber832]

So sad to see yet another young WR ruined by the pressure of stardom and the absolutely worst receiver coaching staff in professional football, the Steelers. It's beyond coincidence that just about every decent to great WR that goes to Pittsburgh ends up shitting the bed in some way, form or fashion. Started way back with Mike Wallace, Plaxico Burress, Antonio Brown, Martavis Bryant, James Washington, Smith- Schuster, Diontae Johnson and so on, etc. Why hasn't anyone questioned this? Talk about wasting talent or not coaching them to their potential. We talk about QBs wasting their careers on teams that don't utilize their abilities, the same thing is happening here in regards to the WR position. If I were a young WR I'd stay the hell away from Pittsburgh because they just don't seem to give a shit what happens to their receivers. Pretty sad for such an illustrious franchise and coach. I'm still amazed the national media hasn't clued in on this yet, especially with all their divia like antics throughout the league.
