2021 Offseason/Season... Draft, FA & Staff

[Bridgeburner]

Some rumors are reaching as far as a blockbuster trade to acquire Xavien Howard from the Dolphins.

I was about to say no chance the Steelers would do that. Then Minka kicked me in the balls and gave me a wedgie.

Melvin Ingram could turn out to be a really good FA pickup.

I think they will implement a solid rotation.... It's Highsmith's job to lose right now. That's the luxury of signing Ingram to a vet-min type 1-yr deal. Low risk, and not viewing Ingram as a starter should help with his longevity this season.

I'm guessing 20-30 snaps per game for Ingram will be the norm. Unless Highsmith disappoints.

I'd start Ingram.

I'd start Ingram.

If he's healthy, he will push for playing time immediately. But at 32-33 years old you have to wonder how much he has left. They have already entrusted the position to Highsmith as he has earned it. But taking over full time to fill the shoes that Dupree left behind will be a tall task.

One thing I know isn't going to happen is Steven Nelson getting signed by the Steelers.

Steelers are nearly 100% vaccinated right now, and Nelson is anti-Vax. They'll trade a 1st for Howard before they bring him back.

If I were a pro athlete I would do the same. So much stress can be generated from that hell-hole.

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

Dope.

Ingram reminds me of Dunlap last season.....that turned out well and I think Ingram will also.

You weren't very high on Dunlap going to the Seahawks if I remember right.....

No I wasn't. Thought he had very little to offer anybody, but indeed I was wrong!

I'd say best of luck to your team for the upcoming season but I'd be lying. I mean how you doing?

Aw, dang.

He seemed excited to play again this season. Something must have happened with him.

Going to miss that man. Some of you may know how pro-Bince I have been for many years...

Dude embodied everything a Steelers LB should. Played with heart/fire/tenacity & a no BS blue collar attitude that any fan could appreciate. He may not have been the greatest or physically gifted LB that ever dawned the B&G, but this dude played with as much passion as Joe Greene. He was a warrior and someone that anyone would want in their corner when going to war.

Salute to #98! Bince was a real one.

The OL is the biggest ? imo.

If they come through it could be another good season.....if not.....5-11 or 6-10.
