    Dulac likes to think he is in "the know" but the truth is that he almost always wrong. There are certain players the steelers keep, and HOF 'ers high on their list.

    Watt is signed through 2025. They will tear up his last year before the 2025 season starts and add 2 years bringing the cap hit down with an out on the last year. His last contract he made a Brinks Load so I can see a smaller cap friendly deal.

    Herbig is signed through 2026. A contract extension should be in order in 2025.

    Highsmith is signed through 2027. A contract extension in 2026.

    TJ Watt is still playing at a very high level. He's just not having the big splash plays this year because more people are paying attention to him. He is still very highly ranked in the defensive player of the year running. Last I looked he was number one on the list.

    The other thing that people have to think about is don't compare TJ Watt to TJ Watt. Compare TJ Watt to every other defensive guy in the league. Even at a reduced performance level, TJ Watt is still better than most of the other players.

    yes = he is CLUELESS, as was shown no more clearly than last offseason.

    he got exactly NOTHING right.

    they will restructure some guys - TJ being one perhaps.

    Minkah is going to have a hard meeting in the offseason.....

    I believe TJ Watt is on the Cam Heyward track, but there aren't many edges that can play 14-15 years.

    I think the debate in the organization will be more on herbig's vs Highsmith. TJ is not going anywhere, but it will be hard to keep all 3, that decision will be made after 25 season so just enjoy the show.
