Draft / FA / Offseason Roster Moves (Merged)

Talented???

Well I'm guessing you just check the Oakland scores and just assume every player is bad on that team. I've watched some Raiders games on rewind, he looks really good.

They already did Ben before they did Timmons.

I haven't read anything official...just that they were going to do it.

As for the Steelers, the thing that screams red flags to me is Antonio Brown, who JUST got his deal this past year, already getting restructured. The thing that MAY save them is...who is upcoming on deals for them? Most of their recent draft picks haven't panned out greatly. No Joe Flacco or Ray Rice type who will be getting a large chunk of change that they'll need to account for.

Only player that springs to mind is Maurkice Pouncey.

We already have a shutdown corner signed (when healthy), a pro bowl running back, and a SB MVP QB who is on the bring of a 5/6 year deal.

Well, if they want a better record this year, someone will have to step up. Then, they'll be someone to pay.

Aaaaah, the fun of watching someone do a deal with the devil. Delicious to my sight.

The Steelers should be worried about starting two PURE right tackles at OT next season, they are going to struggle UPFRONT for another year unless they draft a Lane Johnson. DeCastro will be good I think, but who will they start at left guard? They don't have an every down back on the roster and will be losing Mike Wallace. A lot of questions offensively for the Steelers.

The steelers are always the most dangerous opponent in the division because they are going to spend a ton of cash to keep the guys they want to keep.

@mzenitz: (1 of 3): Cary Williams told me that he doesn't think he's "necessarily a priority right now" for the #Ravens among their impending UFAs...
@mzenitz: (2 of 3): Williams said the team told him its top priorities are QB and MLB and isn't sure it will have the money or time to get him a deal
@mzenitz: (3 of 3): No real surprise. Williams, Kruger and McKinnie are all likely gone. Will be interesting to see what happens with Ellerbe and Reed

Random thought: If, over the next 14 months, Jadeveon Clowney leaves his house for any reason other than Gamecock football, class and any "Path to the Draft" isht then he is WRONG

The Steelers have been redoing contracts for the past 3 yrs. If it was that easy all the teams would do it. When does the time come when the dead money hits..?? This will be the 3rd year in a row for Cheeseburger...

I hear you but trust me at some point the bill is coming and they'll have to pay.

The McKinnie issue might be a 'If we're going to have to spend at the position, as good as you played, we want someone we can trust, like Jake Long'.

The Sword of Light will personally supervise the young man for a percentage of his draft earnings.
