  1. well this shows how much I know. Looks like the Steelers have matched the offer for Sanders. Stupid Patriots http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/2013/04/14/steelers-match-patriots-offer-emmanuel-sanders/2082527/
  2. Very true. I'm actually more concerned about the lack of depth at OLB for us than who we've got starting though. Worilds is still an unkown for me. I'm glad to see him get a shot, I guess Tomlin really spoke up for him when they drafted him, so if just for that I'd like to see him come through. He can definitely get to the QB though, main problem is he isn't as good against the run. I guess we'll find out!
  3. yeah, Harrison has been one of my favorites, so I'm sorry to see him go. But it I'll get over it and it's time to move on. I don't know for sure, but Woodley doesn't seem like he'll be able to play at Harrison's spot. We'll see if Worilds has got it.
  4. Browns traded McCoy and a draft pick to the SF 49ers for two picks. http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/9121787/cleveland-browns-trade-colt-mccoy-san-francisco-49ers-sources
  5. looks like the Steelers are closing the door on Harrison http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap1000000153544/article/james-harrison-reportedly-told-hes-done-with-steelers
  6. i'm a little concerned about losing him, but I'm not sure what the Patriots see in him. He would have probably been our #2 WR this year, but ability-wise he seems like a #3 to me. I would compare him to Nate Washington who now plays for Tennessee. Oh well, we'll get a 3 RD pick for him and we should be able to draft somebody who can match his production and skill. EDIT: And I may have jumped the gun a little because I don't exactly understand all the rules about free agency. It seems Sanders has signed an offer sheet with the Patriots, and the Steelers now have a week to look it over.
  7. Patriots have signed Emmanuel Sanders. He was most likely going to be our #2 WR.
  8. rumor is Lewis will sign with the Saints before the end of the day. CB might be another position we'll be looking at in the draft.
  9. Keenan Lewis is now talking with the Saints. I don't think they can offer him much because their cap situation is no good. I hope the Steelers can match their offer, but maybe Lewis wants to go back down south like Wallace. Either way, we'll have Ike, Cortez Allen, William Gay, and Curtis Brown. We've already looked at Vaccaro. Looks like we're looking hard at Matt Elam in the draft. He might fall to us in the second at this point, but we might have to trade back in the 1st to get him. If not, there's always Swearinger latter on.
  10. with his injuries, penalties, and higher contract we couldn't keep him. Sorry to see the mauler go. He gave us a discount a few years back when Chicago wanted him, I wish him well.
  11. rumor is Pollard led a "near-mutiny" along with Ed Reed against Haurbaugh during the tail end of the season. Supposedly that is why the Ravens are getting rid of him. Makes your SB victory even more impressive.
  12. they've both improved in the trenches though, I wouldn't count them out at this point. But you're right, until they can consistently win they're not too much to worry about
  13. Adams struggled greatly in pass defense but he's getting better, DeCastro is going to be a beast. I'm not to optimistic about this coming season, but I never am. The Steelers will be competing for the division, that I have no doubt.
  14. thanks! Our whole division is looking pretty close I think. Nothing better than the Steelers vs. Ravens games.
  15. this season is going to be a big test for Tomlin, no doubt. The Steelers GM, Colbert, has stated that neither he nor Tomlin saw any "fracture" in the locker-room. Whether that's to be believed or not is a good question. We're going to get rid of Wallace and Mendenhall, two players who are suspected of creating the fracture off the field. True, we're also going to lose some veteran leadership, unfortunately a healthy Harrison will be gone due to cap space. I am excited to see how Tomlin handles this team this season. Steelers fans are questioning his coaching abilities but I for one respect what he does.
