    hope we draft well in the next few years, steelers are not looking like a place free agents will want to sign

    There may be something deeper like you suggest but I don't really want him back anyway. I think it was Burnett,Dupree and Gilbert being cut saves us something like 17 million in cap space. See ya guys....

    Perhaps Burnett should actually prove he is able to be available consistently before he demands anything.

    What’s Burnett’s issue? Not enough nurses or whirlpool availability? Give me a break

    No major loss here. But, it make you wonder .... if a guy, that stayed injured for most of the season... want to be released. Then wow! What does this say about our so called team?

    His issue is that he's been a safety his whole career and the Steelers wanted him to be more of a dime linebacker. The coaches weren't honest with him imagine that.

    I wanted the team to release him anyway, he can't stay on the field. If they release him it would be a 2.83 million cap hit in 2019.

    He wasn't a flop!!! He was misused!!! LOL

    So, we play a safety at LB and take a ILB and play him as a safety covering a WR...Hmmm

    Hit the road jack!!!

    Hilton and Haden should be safe. Everyone else in that secondary should be fighting to stay on the roster
