    Not good enough to qualify, keep in mind there are only 32 of these given out.....he is/was not even close to a top 32 player:


    Each qualifying player has a value based on his contract, playing time and postseason honors, and that value corresponds to a round in the draft

    Wait, what??? Cutting Moncrief is throwing in the towel? Thats a serious reach especially after they gave up a first rd pick to sign Fitz.

    A good GM makes moves with one eye on the present season and one eye on future seasons.

    After their RB's get healthy I'd expect them to make room and bring in another receiver. Won't be hard to recoup the production lost by cutting Moncreif.

    A bad signing that never should have happened.

    Johnson has already made his case for no.2. If they’re happy to let Moncrief go and not sign another receiver, it looks like Holton is expected to pick up on his production from the tail end of the depth chart.

    Hey Vox.

    Yes, sometimes I do get infatuated with speed; especially, being a track coach. I see your point as he never lasted long anywhere and that in the pecking order he would need a lot of things to go his way to get some touches. However, maybe he can somehow find a happy home here in the 'Burgh. For me, what it comes down to is simple; when you wear the Black and Gold I am pulling for you. :clapping: STEELWINDS

    Barron was released by the Rams so he doesn't count toward the comp formula. Only free agents signed away from another team counts.

    Yes I agree Blast.

    I do not see this as "throwing in the towel". At least I hope not. This would be unfair to many, especially the fans. As I stated in another post, I live for my Steeler football once a year. I wait for it in anticipation as do all of us. To sacrifice a season as some say Miami is doing is just not right. I am not saying they are or are not for the record.

    As a teacher, I have never thrown in the towel on any year in my career because I am dedicated to my livelihood and on top of that am getting paid to perform at my job. The wait for football to begin every year is exciting. To think that my team has decided to throw in the towel and I must wait another whole year for a more dedicated and committed product is totally out of the question. Also, I think we are still in the mix. I know it is a cliché but we do have to continue to take this thing one game at a time. Like you said Blast, then why make the move for Fitzpatrick. Wow, he really seems to be a difference maker and I think the "D" as a whole, and the team are realizing that we can still be significant this season. STEELWINDS

    Colts have no respect for this defense and nor should they.
