Russell Wilson

I don't like how the Steelers organization is all in on short term thinking now.

If Tomlin were in charge of roster moves, this would reek of someone just trying to secure an extension with one good year. But Kahn seems all in on it too.

I don't think he will play well here. Arthur Smith and Wilson are polar opposites schematically. If he does though, he's gone next year. And we still don't have an answer on Pickett. Pretty much SB or bust next year.

 

The super genius? LOL

 

Well being that Kirk Cousins just got $180 million from Falcons and a $50 million bonus

I really like Wilson on the 1.2 million 1 year deal....

 

Me too cousins has to be luckiest player that FA ever seen. That has never won a big game in his life. Lol.

 

I mean what the hell, he cost nothing and we've got next to nothing in the QB room, and it's only 1 year, there's much more potential upside than down side here. Does RW inspire me with any confidence at this point?

Nope.

They kinda had to bring in a vet, with only KP under contract, it was just a case of who and on a 1 year deal for no financial commitment it looks the smartest grab of the scrap heap QB's out there.

 

His agent is a first ballot HOF for me!

 

Or just lucky, A guy that has no team accomplishments in his career
Has now made over 300 million. Yes there is a Santa Clause! More
money than brains.

 

Well, the Falcon's 35 year old qb cost 150X what the Steelers 35 year old qb costs, so there's that.

 

Can a Achilles go bad after surgery?

 

You see what money bang average QBs are making. Mayfield and Cousins in recent days.

 

That have never won anything?

 

You forgot Joe Montana, and I am buying him.

 

Center Cushenberry signed with the Titans.

 

Well, that's what people said about the extension Trub was given last season: it's a deal for the Steelers. All that ended up happening was Trub sucking it up and costing Steelers games.

Here's hoping Wilson doesn't suck it up as much Trub.

 

At 2:30 I think this is a good deal. The price is right. We give up nothing. Let's go... I would make this deal as well.

 

I like the Wilson signing if for no other reason it means no Justin Fields.

The fact the Broncos are willing to take a huge cap hit to be rid of him doesn’t bode well though.

1.2 million is really nothing though, so no commitment on our part.

 

IF Wilson succeeds here will PAY HIM what he deserves

 

it can, but unlikely. the bigger problem is how long it takes to be back to 100% full strength and ROM

 

IF he succeeds here (wins a Playoff Game or dare I say 2 or 3!), then he gets the FT next year and wins this City over

 

Mason’s message to Pickett after the Russell Wilson signing: “Welcome to my life!”

 

I wanted Fields - I guess we will have to see what Fields goes for. and if he develops one day into a Top 10 QB.

and THEN - we will have the SEASON to measure the effectiveness of all decisions

giving up on Pickett reeks of fishing or cutting bait - and they CUT BAIT. he will wash out of the league soon enough and no one will remember his name by 2026.

it will be all right everyone.......

 

Russell Wilson vs Kenny Picket...





May the best man win.
