Hadn't realized until today that this is the last year of Buffalo WR Stevie Johnson's rookie contract, and he's holding a tough line in talks. Then I read this in Lombardi's column just now:
"
13. Just based on the way Bills receiver Stevie Johnson plays against Darrelle Revis of the Jets, expect an AFC East team to make a strong run at him this offseason. Johnson is looking for a big contract and should get a great deal. He is tough to handle.
"
Not sure if the "tough to handle" bit refers to as an opponent or as a teammate. He's had some questionable moments — big drop v Pitt last year, the Plax silliness this year — but he has the talent to be the missing piece of this offense. If he has the football acumen to get in sync with TFB.
Thoughts?
