Joey Porter Jr Contract

I don't think the Steelers will pay him an APY of 32 million, for that kind of money you better be an All-Pro with 5-6 interceptions a season.

 

Not sure, but whatever they do , they need to keep him.

 

UGH not worth it

 

Something from another team. After all I keep hearing how the team’s hands are tied by the Watt contract. The sky is falling. Porter will be a Raven.

 

My dudes, don't be jinxing us.

 

They can't even afford their center.

 

That's a lot of cheddar for a guy with only 1 INT last season. Heck, he only has 3 career INTs in 47 career games. That's an INT per game rate of 0.06 which is 4-5 times worse than elite CBs. If he wants to be the highest paid CB in the league, let him do it elsewhere. I'd give him an extension but $32M a year? That's nuts.

 

This is a "make an offer and let him test the market" situation IMO. A reasonable offer, not crazy low or high.

We are not contending for a Super Bowl until we get a franchise QB anyway.

Spend on the O-line, capable receiver, and keep some powder dry. Not spend a bunch on one guy.

One shut-down corner does not make you a contender.

 

I'll see how the new defensive scheme is. Because if it's what the new coach did with his old team, I dont see porter working out to getting a new contract.

 

OK, I will bite. Where are they getting the $32 million number from?

Right now not a single CB in the league is averaging over $30 million. Only 8 CBs are being paid over $20 million.

Three years ago....reddit got the twitter account to post a made up story:

OTC has Port at $20 million annually. https://overthecap.com/player/joey-porter-jr/10856
