I'd like it for the right price. Quality depth CBs are a necessity in this league. But I'd like it more if Tomlin & Butler removed the 90%+ zone coverage schemes because I don't think anyone can excel consistently in that scheme.
QB... I agree. I'm hoping to see Mett get a decent amount of preseason reps this year. But as we said before, if they draft a new guy then that basically shoves Mett out the door. I have a feeling we will see Landry get a deal early in FA next month. And since they aren't in dire straights yet with the Ben situation, the possibility of them chasing a FA is slim to none.
I feel its only a matter of time before he's back in hot water.
I like all the above except for Rivers. I really don't understand the hype for that kid. All the game tape that I've watched is discouraging, ESPECIALLY for a 2nd round pick. With all the inconsistencies with shedding blocks, reaction speed, maintaining the point of attack, and gap-awareness I think he looks more like a 4th Rd prospect at best. I think he benefited from playing in the FCS

Bell... I really hope they can get him locked up long term but I would completely understand them tagging him. And yes, an out-clause is a must if they do ink him long term. So far this offseason he hasn't shown any signs of growth from his recent suspensions. He's already hanging out with Snoop Dogg again, and of course releasing more rap mix tapes...
Brown... I think he deserves every bit of what Julio makes. But will the Steelers break the bank to get it done? Seems like the Steelers rarely do that, if ever. But they are loyal so I think the deal will get done. I just hope AB's ego will take a back seat next season and all that maturity talk on his end holds true.
Green... All good points. It's exciting to think about the offense's capabillities when he's on the field, even without Marty B. But they have to be thinking about draft or FA to get more insurance. Grimble is UC for another year, but it's hard to gauge his value with how limited his usage was. Green was clearly seen as an instant upgrade. If the right guy is on the board in rounds 3 or 4 then I hope they do grab someone with great potential.

Word is the Steelers are watching what the Vikings do with Adrian Peterson.....
If the Vikings cut him as expected, it would bring the salary for all RBs in the league down a good bit, and Pittsburgh will tag Bell instantly. If the Vikings decide to keep Peterson, Pittsburgh will be looking to come to terms with Bell!!!
Read an article on it, don't know where, can't find it....But I swear this is what I read....
I do not understand what Tomlin and the F/O see in Jones......
And why not give Mett a fighting chance to take the #2 spot from Jones, I mean the guys biggest attribute is he lost to the Patriots.....Whopty fuckin dooo......
The F/O and Tomlin owe it to this team and the fans to put the best product on the field, and Jones can't do that. I don't understand, they had no trouble bringing in asshole Vick and benching Jones. And Hell, even I wanted Jones over Vick.....Why not give Mett a fighting chance FFS.
