Sound like Plax and Hoyer

So who gets the hook....Gilreath and????? Going to carry 4 QB's for the next few weeks?

EDIT: ESPN Said Hoyer was signed...and Plax is working out details

Probably went Hoyer over Kafka in case they should happen to play the Pats in the playoffs. Pick at his brain a little bit.

 

Per Steelers Depot on twitter:
One year $615 K deal for Brian Hoyer. Non guaranteed. No signing bonus.

 

at this point i do not see where signing a WR and then cutting a WR would make sense...since as of now they are down 2 WRs

 

Presumably Batch still starts. I also presume Gilreath will stay ahead of Plax on the depth chart. Not sure who gets cut, though. One of the TEs, perhaps?

 

Please don't shoot me, but who the hell is Hoyer?

 

His agent was probably in his right ear saying "Hold out, the Steelers are desperate. Come Wednesday it will be guaranteed, 1 million, with a 200k bonus" and his wife in his left ear saying "Brian - I don't want to go back to the OWS community ever again- take it".

 

Bryan Hoyer. The next QB to get injured.

 

[h=2]Ed Bouchette on twitter reporting Plax has signed with the Steelers. No contract details yet.[/h]

 

OK todd and mike actually give the guy some reps this week in the offense. we may need him. when he sees our line play , he may want more money. just a guess.

 

More money? When he sees the line, he will turn and run completely out of Pennsylvania.

 

news flash.

leftwich out longer, he broke a third and forth rib when the water hit him out of the shower head after the game.

 

Didn't Haley have anyone to bring in? call Warner.

 

Playoffs??? dont talk about playoffs!

 

but if they sign him now they have to pay all year i thought they had to pay only the amount divided for weeks

 

Light up the redzone with tag team Heath & Plax this may get really good!

Steelers add a WR and a QB -- Plaxico Burress and Brian Hoyer. Marshall McFadden and Baron Batch get cut.

I knew they wouldnt be cutting Gilreath. B Batch is a small surprise...he's nothing spectacular but has been OK...I'm sure he'll be back later (not sure if he can go on the PS or not)

 

if they guarantee plax ANY cash, they need to ir cotchery. cutting batch or mcfadden if they were at all worth a damn on ST is a mistake. Why do we always blow in ST pahse of game???

 

batch was the fifth rb , make sense

 

Why not cut Leftwich?

 

can't cut injured players w/o repercussions i think. they should have just IRd him, would have saved them the roster spot and it's not like Lefty is going to come back and blow anyone away.

really bummed (for non-football reasons) they cut Baron, i like the kid
