Steelers going after William Jackson III

I'm not sure Tomlin had as much input in who they were drafting early in his career

 

For the longest time he couldn't pick the coaches that was on the team.... and when he has hired his coaches we see how it goes ...... im done have a good night

 

He hired Munchak

 

I think @Blast Furnace is referring to Ray Sherman after 98'? If I remember correct, Cowher couldn't ditch him fast enough after the season ended.

 

No no I have been told a million times on this sight. Tomlin has zero say on who we acquire. Oh wait maybe he does sand all the people that claim he doesn’t is dead wrong

 

No. You haven’t. You’ve been told correctly that it’s the general managers job to assemble the team. Tomlin has input, but he’s the coach not the gm.

 

I agree with your statement but many times I have seen people say “that’s not his job AND he has no say in it at all”

 

I had no idea about the price tag for this guy. This move makes zero sense to me.

 

We have traded for a lot of “always injured players” that never play. We traded for that stupid chargers TE. I believe there was an often injured 49ers TE we scoped up

 

Tomlin has a HOF QB for 15 years. How is he doing without a HOF QB. Cowher did decent with crap QBs and won a Super Bowl 33% of the years he had a HOF QB.

 

So you have read every comment that I have received since being a member to ensure what you said is correct?

 

It is certainly fair to question their judgment of a cornerback on their roster. They apparently blew it on just such an evaluation of Witherspoon.

 

Wow. Some people really are desperate to avoid giving Tomlin credit for anything.

 

Well only in bad draft picks. Some of these fans are just ridiculous.

 

Where’s @Brice
Wonder if they gave him a physical.

 

Didn’t you tell anyone who would listen that the Steelers wouldn’t trade Claypool?

 

Leave that "your" expert opinion of negativity out, and I'll always give you a like!

 

I laughed

 

I'm not one to bump threads.... but I want to for when people told me no way Claypool would get us a second.

 

Some threads need to be bumped.

 

They say he got benched because struggles with zone?

Isn’t that the same situation Artie Burns found himself in?

 

Some trolls deserve to be thrown in the middle of the street..... but not many here are fan to being cold like me.
