OLB Jason Worilds Will Be A Free Agent

Possible Orakpo Replacement and takes a need away from the draft


Steelers GM Kevin Colbert suggested he plans to let free agent OLB Jason Worilds test the open market.
"Jason had a good year for us," Colbert said. "I don’t think you’ve seen the best of him, either with the Steelers or as a potential player for someone else’s team. We will see where the market goes." The Steelers haven't ruled out using the transition tag on Worilds for the second-consecutive season, but it's hard to see him re-signing. Pittsburgh is currently $1.72 million over the 2015 salary cap. Feb 14 - 5:06 PM

Country, FA is not how this team is going to be rebuilt. It appears the days of signing big name FAs (and watching them crash and burn) is over. We will not be using our precious cap dollars on a FA OLB, but saving that money to resign our own, Kerrigan.

But he is not going to be a extremely high price free agent and he is only 26

you start getting hooked on names and that leads to trouble

you get blue chippers from the draft and if you sign a worllds it will cost . then he better be demonstratively better then kerrigan because then you send the wrong message to the team that you will pay for other free agents but not our own
