Re: Stealers cap situation for 2012 a complete disaster
Smith's a free agent so he can't be cut. He's said that he'll only keep playing if it's in Pittsburgh, but I don't see that happening. Guy's had a great career, but it's time to hang it up - he's missed 33 games over the last three seasons, just had neck surgery, lost 20 pounds afterwards, and he'll be 36 when training camp starts.

Re: Stealers cap situation for 2012 a complete disaster
As of today Pittsburgh is only 10 million over with the recent moves. I think the predicted cap demise of the Steelers and writing them off for next year may be a bit premature. Lot of moves eft.

Re: Stealers cap situation for 2012 a complete disaster
Its pretty funny how people write them off because of the cap situation. There are ways around the salary cap (which we're seeing right now). Until the day arrives that restructed contract aren't allowed, the salary cap will continue to be a total joke. The salary cap will always keep teams like pittsburgh competitive. Guys will always restructure to stay with a winner.

Re: Stealers cap situation for 2012 a complete disaster
Alright, let's say the Steelers get under the cap, what money will they have to spend to help improve their team, especially their overall depth?

Re: Stealers cap situation for 2012 a complete disaster
I'm not sure they need to improve the personnel. They just need to execute better. They did have a top D. The offense did well in terms of yards, but had a lot of trouble in the red zone (which is likely part of the reason Arians is no longer there).
And fewer injuries would help them too. Harrison missed 5 games and Woodley missed nearly half the season. Roethlisberger was not the same after the ankle injury. And the Oline was a patchwork from pretty much the start of the year.
