    Have I just been playing Madden too long, or is that not like really cheap? For a veteran MLB who's likely to take over the playcalling this year if Farrior goes? Could be wrong, of course...

    I dont think that will be a problem rumor has ben and troy are restructuring as well. Ward will either redo his deal or get cut plus smith is still part of that and farrior or foote will be gone and some other big money dead weight. Imo we are in good shape to get under and get wallace and gay back.

    I knew I heard something about Ben restructuring again. Man, twice in 2 years though makes me think the deal as originally written, wasn't exactly in our favor cap wise.

    I knew this was coming! Great news!

    Theres over a month left and there about halfway there getting under. They will be making some more cuts and doing some more restructuring. They know what they're doing.

    Yeah, people have been talking like the Steelers had no idea what they were going to do. Just because THEY didn't know what the Steelers were going to do, doesn't mean the Steelers didn't. We had to trim some fat, but we've got fat to trim!

    These guys restructuring tells me they are in Pittsburgh bc they want to be, not just for the money. Of course, I m sure there are some loop holes in there that gives them more money.

    Maybe Ben gave up some money to get some OL help. :praying:
