Seems like the Steelers might have to get in a bidding war for Boyd?

After losing out on Morse it seems the Steelers have had talks with Brian Allen from the Rams. I don’t think this one will be as good an upgrade but will have that needed experienced backup if they draft a center.

Elliot seems like a band-aid dumpster filling at SS so they can pay elsewhere vs going for a larger name.

He'll be more of the same we had last season. Package kinda guy. Not a real starter. And they are paying him appropriately. Good value signing.

Hopefully not out of the Simmons market. This draft doesn't have much in the way of The Guy at SS.

Elliot seems like a decent player. I like him better than I did with the Keanu Neal signing.

It only took a 4th rounder to get Allen. Man that would have been huge for this team, oh well they will get the WR position filled elsewhere.

It also means the Bears have to pay him an $18 Million salary. AND a $5 Million roster bonus.

I'd like Allen, but not to pay that much.

Oh yeah but this expires after this year. If interested to keep him post this season, there would be the option to restructure that current deal. Would be curious to know if he is willing.

They could save money and sign Claypool......

He's also 31. He's had a long career and is still very productive. I'd love to have him. But he's on the wrong side of the financials for this. Makes him more of a hinderance than any benefit unless she was willing to play for a LOT less right now.
And with his age right now is all you can bank on. He's on his way out shortly.
