Steelers and Sam Darnold

giving all that money to a 31 year old edge coming off his worst season and multiple injuries seems pretty high risk to me, not to mention signing a 42 year old Qb to lead your team to their fading playoff hopes.

Signing Darnold would’ve been a prudent move to keep the team competitive

 

I guess 2023 would be considered a great draft then:
Jones
Porter Jr.
Herbig
Washington
Benton

 

Correctamundo

 

I think knowing how this team operates, there's no way they don't give TJ a contract. It was a business decision.

 

i can understand the business intent, but its still not a good football move.

 

A draft that could help the Steelers to take a another level in a good way for the future(not just the 2026 season)... They have 12 draft picks, including 5 picks in the first 3 rounds, so they can't afford to miss their chance...At some point, they need to draft an all-pro caliber player... They haven't done that since Watt in 2017.

 

Don't disagree here.

Massive 3rd contracts aren't good business.

Cam was the outlier here.
