Hey there Cope, thanks for doing these !!!!
1) What are the chances of bringing in the Falcon's ILB (can't even pronounce or spell). Not only would he be a HUGE up grade but probably our biggest $$$$ signing as well. We'd be set though, pipe dream but one can dream........................
2) I know the off-season can change things a lot so I was curious as to your thought on GREEN being able to start at center or do we aquire another and switch him to guard?? Which gard, some say LG and move Dotson ?
3) I see CB in the 1st round, what say you ?
4) Trench Warfare needs to be addressed. There is a chance Tuitt returns but we don't know at what ability. Instad of counting on his reture I think he should be considered depth until proven otherwise. Do we draft 1-3 rd rounds at least 1 DL or OL starter ?
5) -22 F last night here, -2 F was today's high. I still look for an early spring and crop planting, what are your feelings on that ?
Salute the nation

Should the Steelers use the draft or free agency to fix the offensive line?

Is Terron Armstead out of reach?
Build a top notch OL and DL!
Question 1. If a train left Pittsburgh, heading west, at 35 MPH, can we make sure Tomilin is on it?

Why are the media talking heads making a big deal about Kevin Colbert saying that if the season started today, that Mason Rudolph would be the starter - when in fact that he is the only Steelers QB under contract? So of course he would be the starter.
Remember Haskins only has a restricted free agent offer (and no one is giving up a first round pick for him) but technically is not under contract.

Cope, couple of questions,
What does PIT‘s comp picks come looking out as? Has Dupree’s contract been cancelled out by anyone? We lost 6 and signed 2. Does Dupree being on IR reduce the comp formula?
Can you elaborate on whether the two OL will be picked in the draft, it’s been 10 years since the last time it happened. Or do we go DL/LB and or CB if Pickett isn’t there?
Great job as always on the forum and with SN!

OTC projects the Steelers to only receive a 4th for Bud Dupree. They have Joe Haeg canceling out Feiler even though he barely played and had a much smaller contract. The formula is dumb.
We lost a pick for Witherspoon which make absolutely no sense… we traded a draft pick for him… his ufa status meant nothing
Let me deign the comp system, it will be partially based on the money you get and partially on your stats…it would be legitimately fair and id close tge loopholes they game the system with

How can a 2 mil contract (Haeg) cancel out a 7 mil contract (Fieler)? Or in Mike Hilton’s case a 4 mil contract on a trade including a 6th, for a 6 mil contract? WTH?
Yes see dupree was IRd for part of tge season thus making him drop from a third to a fourth
So who was the most underrated player and tge best of the non hall of famers in the cowher era?
We were talking earlier about farrior, who absolutely would be a hof guy if ray lewis didn’t monopolize all pro and pro bowl accolades during his time…
Then there is carnel lake, who kind of got screwed because once people realized he was doing everything that dallas’ Woodson and Butler were doing and getting the accolades he deserved they moved him to corner
There was Lloyd who was fantastic but pissed off the media something fierce
And hampton, who if troy was the soul of tge d and Farrior was the head, was the guts of it
Then there was Kirkland, who gets minimized because the pass d and tackle for loss stats didn’t start until his career was already pretty advanced so it makes him look worse than a second team all decade team member was
And there was Aaron smith..maybe tge finest technique for a 3/4 de ever, yet ignored because media members only know stats
Then there was Ward… who was the best blocking wr but gets ignored because he was a possession guy, not a flashy deep threat
And heath miller, who made the mistake of being a total package te in an era when only pass catching mattered
Oh plus Porter, who was an electric talent from day one

Mad, when you have *** hats like Peter King being part of the PFWA, what gets you on TV is what you shine and buff. It doesn’t hurt being BFF to Kraft and Marcia either.
I despise the writers voting… tgey are way too biased and clueless it should be a collection of ex coaches
So tonight is my birthday and coincidentally the first time I’ve been drunk since i got covid… is tgere anyone else who experienced this abortion of a season mostly sober? How the hell do people do that?
Happy birthday! We just had to restock two bottles in our liquor cabinet. I will leave it at that.
My liquor collection at home is easily bigger than any local bar… I should invite the bulk of Steelers nation over the next time we win the super bowl and drink it dry lol
Well ... yeah.
People always think im joking but i travel a ton and buy neat things i find on the road and never have time to try em lol… then i go out to bars when im homeWell ... yeah.

Same situation here but only on STEELERS stuff. Prior to the pandemic and NFL personal ban I would go places but always look for STEELERS stuff. I self imposed isolation through out pandemic and a long time ago I don't spend money NFL related.
SPECIAL NOTE: If at a yard sale or from a private person I'll buy STEELERS stuff as they paid the nfl and I' buying from them.

Because I lived through 1986. Last year was 2008 in comparison to those Mark Malone years.
