Reuniting with Flores and DB coach Alexander
James Pierre heading to Vikings
- Thread starter Steelerfan81
- Start date
Like Gainwell, another departure that makes little sense to me. The Steelers don't believe that Pierre is worth $4.25 million a year? But Watt is getting ten times that? WTF.
4.25 for Pierre is cheap, even if he ends up being a solid backup. Gainwell for $7 million is on the high side, which most felt would happen.
Damn he's going to shine there...
Kenneth Walker is getting more than double that, with almost $29 million guaranteed. 7 mill with 10 guaranteed for Gainwell, the Steelers' 2025 team MVP, doesn't seem that high to me. Especially given their lack of depth at the position.

Exacty WTF.
Don’t forget the highest paid nickel back in league history/failed safety that is Ramsey in addition to Watts outrageous money
We’d better not see Kahn sitting on one penny of cap space beyond a small rainy day fund this year like we have the last two years where there has been loads of unused cap money.
My god offer Pierre 5 million and he would have stayed I’m sure.
I’m getting pretty sick of Kahn, he’s better come up big with all that cap space this year, bigger than the flop that Ramsey and Janu Smith were

Pierre wanted to start, PIT had him as a third DB. It was the reason they signed Samuel on a 1 year deal, plan B if Pierre signed elsewhere. Didn’t matter, they had Dean on their FA radar. Pure cover corner.

SKOL! Good luck Pierre. Nice rags to riches story there.
