But he's no Jeff Janis and won't be catching two Hail Mary passes a drive.

The way Jeff Janis ran routes in Green Bay ...I'll be surprised if he can find his way to Cleveland.

I dont know if he sucked or not as a WR ... but I know he was really good as a coverage guy in ST. Enjoyed seeing his play.

too bad he's gone.

Janis might get a fresh start in Cleveland, but he's gonna have to do it with a franchise that is starting from zero. Dorsey is taking over that team the way Ron Wolf took over ours.

Janis was probably the fastest guy on the team. I wish they would have used him more.
I guess they didn’t think he was worth keeping.
He was huge on special teams.

Janis finds himself smack dab at the bottom of the depth chart all over again, and he won't be climbing it. Janis is making his money as a special yeamer. He is the offensive equivalent of Jarrett bush, only Janis never won us a superbowl.

I liked Jeff Janis speed and his special teams play.

That said ... I would have liked to see Janis on a streak play from time to time just to stretch the defense out.
