oldno82 Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Really glad to see Pitta back at practice though I'm sure he has a long way to go before being football-ready, Might not even be this season. But, I was thinking: should we take a chance and sign Pitta now for 3 years or do we play it conservative and offer him a one year deal?

papasmurfbell Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 No way you can do that. If he is not the same you have just thrown money away. I think he signs a 1 yr around vet deal with incentives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldno82 Posted November 21, 2013 Author Share Posted November 21, 2013 That's what I was leaning towards too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cravnravn Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I say 1 year, I also say why in the hell is he rushing to get back on the field, if we were 6-4, Id be all for it but we are 4-6 and tumbling fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutsideRzAcE Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Well that's one of the benefits of him playing this season. They can see what he looks like before they have to make a decision in the offseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because after the next 3 home games, we will be in control of the 6-seed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not want to see him on the field this year. He is too valuable to chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robjr83 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Guys.. there's no guarantee he'll even be here next year. Pitta might want to get back on the field ASAP to drive up his price. I'd say let him play this year. If he's damaged goods then the team will know not to overspend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravinmaniac52 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I know a team up north that would love to have him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesteelhurtin Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Because after the next 3 home games, we will be in control of the 6-seed. Not going to happen the Steelers are rolling and are getting their second TE back this week as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldno82 Posted November 21, 2013 Author Share Posted November 21, 2013 Got a feeling Pitta won't play this year and will sign a 1-year with incentives. UNLESS we win the next 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pitta is a finesse player at a position where we need muscle ala Anquan Boldin. Signing Pitta would be nice but I hope the organization takes a good look at Vernon Davis' brother with the Skins. He's a head case but he's also big, strong, physical, with good hands and capable of big time YAC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he is spoiled goods let the other team get saddled with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Money Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Not going to happen the Steelers are rolling and are getting their second TE back this week as well. The Steelers have won two in row at home. The two previous games to that they lost to the freakin' Raiders and got shellacked by the Patriots. Now they are on the road again. They could very well lose the next two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
