    They will likely be targeting a QB in the first round next year not a CB, it's possible Ramsey, Heyward, and maybe Highsmith come off of the books next year.

    That's more than likely but the best scenario for the Steelers would be Rodgers being out for the season after game #1 and Will Howard coming in and starting the final 16 games and going a decent 10-6. He doesn't have to be spectacular but shows that he has what it takes to be a good NFL starting QB. Then we could use the 2017 draft to build around him.

    I really want a nice miter saw. Not having one has been holding back my woodworking for awhile now. Scoured the re-sale market and finally found one. Cuts clean, holds its angle, all those wonderful miter saw things.

    Why would I leave it on the curb for someone else and try and trade my table saw and a shop-vac for the chance to enter the miter saw blind raffle? Because the dust collector was going to be expensive?

    Geesh. Just sign Porter and move on with your day. Unless someone with the Steelers has a tangible reason that he is not or will not be a top CB....then it is all just PR posturing.

    Yeah I don't understand the mentality of trading Porter and "just get another corner in the draft". They must forget about our high draft picks at CB like Artie Burns and Senquez Golson.

    I bought a miter saw

    I did my homework looked at all the pros and cons all the options and bought one that fit my needs at a proper price

    I pretty much do that with everything

    I pretty much did that very well for a living with a lot of my money and other people’s money

    Probably why I stayed employed and eventually owned my businesses and did very well

    But there is your option

    If the Steelers want to sign someone, they will restructure contracts as they've done before, and they will sign him. Count me among those not worrying about this.

    You’re version is even better than mine.

    Either way the underlying rationale makes more sense than not buying a miter saw because the first time you check prices in 5 years it seems expensive.

    I’m losing the plot here. But I think we agree?

    They’ll sign him, probably a huge bone of contention will be guaranteed money.

    Watt's trade value has already plummeted. Anybody can see he is not worth near that much money now.
