    Have anyone heard of the steelers trying to trade for Tyler Murray?! I didn't even know that he was available?!

    Schefter: After being released by the 49ers, free-agent Pro-Bowl FB Kyle Juszczyk is meeting today with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

    Would be nice to have a real fullback.

    I just saw that. I am very happy to see this. Smith had used a fullback quite a bit in the past, but they didn't have one last year. Juszczyk can still play.

    happy also, just hope he is still semi close to what he was. Loved him as a FB. Time to move on from little Hayward, just not a FB.

    Hope they bring Skronick(SP?), rather than Scotty Miller

    I don't see the appeal with Miller. They had a major need at receiver last season and he still couldn't play himself into a significant role. Skowronek is a different type of player. He is a strong blocker and outstanding special teamer, two things they don't get from Miller.

    Probably why they chose Harrison over Roberts along with his special teams value.



    I like the Echols signing more than the Slay signing, he can play the slot and outside CB.

    I don't understand this signing they already have two small fast receivers in Austin, Roman. I would rather bring back Skowronek.

    I wouldn't sign him long term, but a one or two-year deal would work.

    It’s amazing how you can be so far off the mark on nearly everything. The broncos were stuck with that contract because they released him. It had absolutely nothing to do with the Steelers. They simply took a flyer on a washed up qb

    Did we end up signing Slay to just one year? I don't get that, we are not a few players away from a Super Bowl run (you are perhaps that if you come short in the AFCCG) but we are far far from that so the money we are spending doesn't seem to be smart to me. One year CB rental with no real QB and an aging defensive line which then means and an offensive line that I still don't think is complete. Tomlin doesn't want to rebuild then tell him that's what we are doing and then maybe he would have agreed to a trade. We are gonna reach because we have a need and that is gonna hurt us.

    Ben Skowronek is back. Nice gunner and strong run blocker. I like it.

    I'd say that wr is done, unless they want to get something for George before he goes.

    Metcalf, Pickens, CAIII, Wilson, Miller, Skowronek,

    It's impressive how much better this offense looks on paper right now. They obviously need a QB1, but whether it's Russ or Aaron, they'll have a legit set of skilled playmakers to work with.

    Also, DK's trade and extension are now official. He's expected to wear No. 4, so Pickens keeps No. 14 and we're safe from the first bit of potential drama...

    This is fact, you really have no brains for finance

    The reason Russ signed with Pittsburgh for league minimum is because all the money was going back to Denver.

    Get a clue and look it up!!!

    So much for bringing Kyle Allen back as a backup. He signed with the Lions.

    I see Flacco met with the Giants. It would be weird to see him in black 'n' gold.

    No, Brice it’s you that doesn’t get it. The broncos had to pay Wilson the remaining guaranteed money on the 5 year 250 million dollar contract they signed with Wilson. That amount was 38miilion dollars. Wilson signed with us for 1.2 million. So he got paid almost 40 million to play 11 games for the Steelers. Nobody gave or sent any money back to the broncos
