No way is this happening. Donta Hightower

i wish keith butler would come to the realization that you can't do everything on defense with LB'ers. he was one and he loves them i get that, but they just can't do it all. i think this was way too much to offer hightower and to let timmons go. i'm glad he went back to the cheats.

butler pounds his fist and demands LB'ers for his defense but the biggest asset to this defense last year was DB's and hargraves and tuitt playing so well to me anyway. he tried to use our ILB'ers as coverage players way too much if you ask me and we struggled somewhat leaving the short middle of the field open as coverage dropped deeper and deeper taking our ILB'ers out of position too much. no way timmons should have been matched up on wr's ever.

i want obi and jones badly as draft picks to keep shazier in the range i just talked about and use these guys as help for him and also range for them as safeties to help downfield. i hope KB starts to change his thinking on this. drafting these guys would give you darn near 3 shaziers on the field. then we have something, but hey thats me.

 

wasn't to be included in this article, just the part about how much they offered hightower. there are articles about butler. it's pretty well known he wants LB'ers always. if they all could only play like he did.

this one states him talking about what i was on the backend. i hope we go after more of this with a couple of these big fast safeties. obi? jones?

here ya go about the table pounding. yea the guy likes his LB'ers. it's a burgh thing.

 

not just a butler thing, it's also not just a burgh thing either, heck the whole state. penn st. has always been known as LB U. i just want them as slimmer, big, strong, fast safeties. they can call them all LB'ers if they want.

 

Oh man the very first thing that pops in my head when I think "Steeler Football" is a linebacker doing all he possibly can do to murder a quarterback.

 

It's all Jack Lamberts fault
