Antonio Brown gets paid

[Thruthefog]

I will never understand this. When was the last time a team won a SB with highly paid WR? Seriously.

The Steelers draft great WR's all the time. I wish the Pats could draft that well in this area. The Steelers should of traded him. I know fans wouldn't like it but that kind of money could be spent on more important things you need. No?

It worked out so well for the Lions.

The Lions didn't just pay Megatron, they made him far and away beyond every other WR in terms of paygrade. It's the Brandon Carr (with more production obviously) of WR contracts.

Denver did it 2 years ago with Thomas and Sanders but with 0Tds thrown, we know it was the Defense that won it. Pats don't use their 1st round picks on offensive weapons , just lineman or guards. Last one was pre-Brady with Edwards RB in 1998

Good move by Pitt. Have to pay your core players to have a shot at a SB.

They should have saved a few bucks for getting a new QB.

On a serious note (for just a second) I agree.

 

[Maximus Rex]

We've all seen you do better, Hoss. Step it up!

 

[SteelersPride]

I can, and I will

fair enough. no line for online, dline, secondary

OK, I'll be better next time

Just kidding, troll as you please, dude. But we do all like to see you on your "A" game.

Not much to troll really. AB is really good and I still thinks it's dangerous to lay out such a large part of the cap money to so few players (if @SteelersPride} is on top of it which I assumed he was.

In my defense, you can't deny that some guys loose that hunger when they get that first big (relatively speaking) payday. Happens to every team in every sport, unfortunately.

where, exactly, is the glaring defeciency on the o-line?

unbelievable. instead of this being a momentous occasion, a fellow Steeler "fan" wants to bellyache because we're not blowing our cap wad on j-holes from other teams that may or may not work out for us.

go root for Washington.
