Terrell Edmunds

Heyward, at 34, you do not restructure. Too long in the tooth.
Restructure Minkah and free up $10 mil.
I would think Watt would be the easy can to kick?
 
DJ has already set the single-season NFL record for receptions without a touchdown by a wide receiver (77 and counting). Only James Wilder (85 in 1984) and Roger Craig (81 in 1986), both running backs, remain ahead of him overall in that dubious category. Scoring is kind of important.
I'd put more weight of the blame on the OC, about 50% is ****** play calling, 20% is the QB's play and then we could add a 30% to DJ for the only catchable pass he had in the endzone, which of course he dropped, but still only one pass.

Sure, it's a combination of things. Pickett only has 4 total touchdown passes in 9 starts, so that's part of it. But when you hear the words "#1 receiver," you think of a player who gets into the end zone regularly. At least I do. 0-for-77 is hard to fathom from a supposed go-to guy who makes $18 million a year.
 
My example was an extreme, something would have to happen if a whole new coaching staff was brought in. Johnson would be an EXAMPLE player gone to re-establish locker room culture and winning persona. More players would be gone as well, especially the lower tier.

Character would have to be majorly established.

I’m not the expert but a realist on how to change the culture somehow. I feel a drastic action would be needed.

Move Johnson and bring in a Vet of some sort. We will draft another WR of course. The biggest need though is bringing in a new HC and let them bring their own staff with them. Let Omar pick his HC. Allow him to do his job as GM with his guys.

Take this a step further, no other WR in the entire history of the NFL has had 0-77 in touch-down receptions. Paid #1 money yet get attitude / key drops / third string endorsements.

He has traveled the wrong road to greatness and I’d hope he finally takes the right turn. Time will tell but it seems we have been waiting for a long time for our #1 to start showing his pay to TD ratio we’ve been missing.

TJ's two years older than Minkah. I'd err on the side of caution in credit card spending and roll with the younger dude.

I know TJ WATT is all world when healthy. HEALTHY, seems to be the trouble.

Just curious as to how some here feel on if the STEELERS are getting their value worth versus his pay?

Myself, I’m a little concerned about longevity coinciding with his health on the field. I am all for TJ WATT and original signing, but am hoping for “healthy” play from him.

Like Coolie is saying, I’d be hesitant to be pushing his money forward.
