    The steelers always shop at the dollar store in FA, you all know that by now, they never make any big splash signings in FA.....

    Your joking right? We signed Landry...D.Johnson...made sure Toussaint wasn't going anywhere....Oh! you aren't joking? Well I am:hehehe:......and it looks like the Steelers are too:shrug:. Can't really blame them we can't afford the market these top tier guys are going in. We can use at least a small upgrade for our secondary and OLBs though....hopefully the bargain bin has a couple surprises....

    Yep , but with a short time left for your star QB , you would think they might grab him another weapon or get some better talent on D....I knew they weren't going to go to Louis Vuitton, but at least maybe Kohls...

    We have two CB, Artie and Ross, an aging Slot/nickel in Gay..... And unproven untested Shabazz & Golson as backups!!!

    It's a premiere position that if you find talent it will cost you. It's a passing league!!!! Missing on not signing Cooper was a Huge Mistake.

    Now instead of drafting a CB in RD 3 we'll most likely need to go rd 1 and push edge rusher to the 2nd

    Exactly. All the big $$ players on O won't get us to the dance if the secondary continues to be abysmal.

    I am looking at what is left on the fa market and I am thinking about the talent in this draft. I look at our needs, a back up RB - another WR - OLB - ILB - CB - maybe a TE. The draft is deep at OLB, CB, S, WR, RB and TE so I feel like we should make a move for a ILB in FA.

    Some guys I like are Brown(27), Hodges(26) and Minter(26). But the one guy I would really be interested in is Te'o. I am not sure if he signed anywhere yet I did read he was visiting the Saints but I think with what is left he is our best option. JMO
