John Clayton Reports

Pretty big splash for the Hawks. I like that guy, solid performer, good hands, good attitude.

good player...poor character

I read last week that he was talking to the Hawks, the vikes, or stay at Cincy. I think it was a good move for both Hoosh and the Hawks. Now what happens to the other high dollar recievers. Is Bobby gone, Deon gone, or Nate gone?

Bobby will be gone. IMO.

I think it is a great pick up and disagree with the poor character comment. I know he had some issues when he was in junior college prior to OSU. But I havent heard anything negative about him since he has been in the NFL and has been outspoken in his support of the hard line stance of the new commish

Sweet! Now they need to trade or cut Branch,looks like the 4th pick will be an OL and not Crabtree. Whosyermamma has size and heart. Just hope Hass can stay healthy this year.

Zero character issues in NFL, averages 100+ catches and is a terror in the RedZone...hellofapickup and the flexibility come draft time will be huge...

Right on, we really needed another good receiver!

what ever happened to Branch? I hope Hoosh doesnt fall to the Hawk curse. I would be a lot more excited if they picked up some new lineman that could blow holes even Shawn Alexander could run through.

Hassleback drops back, looks right, pumps & lets it rip to a wide open Houshaaaaa!!

Fall 09 BRING IT ON!!!

this is good news, im sure bobby is going to retire soon, and i dont think branch has much left. if burleson is healthy, he and housh will be great!

PLAYOFFS

HELL YEAH!

He has had 1 100 catch season.

His career averages are 72 catches,826yds and 5.2 TDs.

Not exactly spectacular numbers.

not spectacular, but better then anyone on the hawks last year

He's had to split duties with Chad Johnson, another phenomenal reciever...

Of course his numbers will be slightly lower...

He's a reliable handed reciever who's pretty solid. Can't really say the same about Branch or Burleson...

He is THE leading receiver catch wise over the past 3 years in the NFL. No he did not get 100 per year early in his career but look at his past 4 years, he is real close to 100 per and puts up a ton of TD's as well...perfect receiver for the WC Offense...

His career stats are misleading. He DNP his first 3 years in the NFL. Also he did not even start playing football until he was a junior in high school.

Thats good, less wear on his 6' 1" 200 lb. frame.

im going to pretend that you didnt say that so that i dont get filled with rage and hate...
