I'm stoked we have him AZ. I remember watching him in college at Pitt. He was much heavier then. He can still run though tackles since he lost weight. His story as a cancer survivor makes all that more intriguing. 💪🙌🙏 Welcome to AZ. Glad he's here. Do work. Let's go
It`s easy to forget just how good Conner is and can be. So many injuries and missed games just cloud your head. I think he goes berserk this season and will remind everyone what he can do.
they need at least one more draft like this take good players, but more importantly taking MATURE future leaders in the locker room. Then Pittsburgh will be back on track. I'm happy one half of the drama is leaving, now to send Ben and Tomlin packing.
@Nic Salerno he had one of his best? he led the league in interceptions and over/underthrew guys every week....some were TD's left on the field. He is not a leader, even Hines Ward (one of his favorite targets) said so. learn your shit before you go around name calling MORON
I think we had an even better draft this year. Seems that way on paper anyways. Let's hope so because other than the Bengals our division is STACKED this year. Once again the best division in football. And by a country mile
Leveon Bell don't look any different. James Conner stepped up as a first year starter and Slashed Leveon Bell's stats..... Its gonna be a Juju smith and James Conner show next year.
Wish we still had bell tho. I ain't mad at bell at all he's a chill dude and he deserved his money. Him and Conor would be a great 1-2 punch Ab a fool tho.
this video showed me hes my 2nd round pick tomorrow...he has heart ...does it all with the exception of break away speed.....and hes the guy in pitt.....dont see anyone taking his touches if hes healthy
2018 Connor was unstoppable. I honestly believe he could still be a very dominant back if he get injuries under control.. I wish him the best in Arizona!
As a Jags fan, I would rather have this guy over Fournette. James Conner loves the game and puts his whole heart into it. Whereas, Leonard, only cares about getting his paycheck.
I love the way he runs but it’s also super scary cause he is prone to injury because he runs so hard and seeks contact. Maybe in the 6th round we should draft a power back just so Connor can make it to the playoffs or maybe use Samuel more
Joe Jokonya everyone thinks I’m dumb for saying this but I think they should use jay sam more. I feel like he’s more of an L Bell type when it come to his versatility and even his running style to me resembles him.
He was a late 1st round pick last year resulting in him being a top 10 RB and a ppr monster for the first 8 weeks of the season. Then goes down with an injury, so does Big Ben, the offense goes to shit by the time Conner comes back. Now this year I can get him mid-3rd round with the original offense that we were paying a 1st round price for? Yes please. Top 10 RB in the flex babyyyy
I'm wary about picking up Conner in fantasy because after that concussion he got against Carolina that knocked him out the game his production went down and he fumbled more. Plus the Steelers said they were gonna use Jaylen Samuels more so that guaranteed less opportunities for Conner
Big Chungus connor better choice! Not having great WR other than juju connor will see more touches! Had him last year and this year great man for points!
James Conner Puts the Pittsburgh team on his back, puts most of the city of Pittsburgh on his back week after week during the season. Giving up his very best, not to mention the injuries and life long sacrifices of behavior modification for 755k? Last year it was 655K?! TV contract in the Billions, plus logo rights, world wide marketing... on and on. The Pittsburgh team could have had a pre-determined stamp of a terrible year but it was James Conner that gave all of Pittsburgh hope. Sure there are others but this is about Billions of dollars, huge amounts of money and capital that James Conner was all over for 755 K. What's the point? Sure there should be contracts and bonuses but a player should be payed by the league based on merit during each weeks game not the team he plays for. 755K is a bench warmers pay. James Conner should be going home making love to his woman of choice relaxing and enjoying life fairly scratch and ding free for that pay not being attended to by multiple trainers and medical staff to attend to the destruction of a NFL running back after each game for that money. These players and their "Rookie contracts" is modern, high finance robbery. Sure anyone can be a running back but 9,999 out of 10,000 men would fail so miserably that the whole league would not exists. The teams threaten to cut the players or not play them if they complain in the slightest with the veterans that are out of their minds for years of getting under paid are in fact wrecking for all the rest and it needs to stop.
Man I miss Conner unlike Najee he shoots the gap and keeps his feet moving he just had bad luck with the o line we had at the time but still I think he was a better runner than Najee
Why do people say Sony Michel isn’t that good but look at Connor who didn’t miss 3 games like Sony due to injury and partially tore his acl before the preseason. Sony still got 931 and 6 touchdowns plus the postseason which made up for the 3 games he missed and got 1,267 rushing yards and 12 touchdowns which is better than Connor who has a way better offensive line and played for more of the season than Sony. I’m not saying Connor is trash but he’s kind of overrated while, people call Sony Michel mediocre?🤔
Debating whether to target him in my drafts this year - 2020 or did he just pull his groin getting out of the car? This guy killed me last year two different injuries can’t stay healthy; true three down back material though. I may target him again who knows
