Steelers Re-Sign Cody Wallace

Free prostate exams for everyone!

 

Could it be an open competition for the left guard spot in camp? You don't sign a guy to 3 years not to compete.

 

Good signing...he earned more than a 1 year deal even if his sampling was small.

Hopefully they still bring back Velasco

 

Wallace has a nasty streak that I hope is catchy. good signing. it at least puts someone in place for next year if pouncey's negotiations go south, literally.

 

This is my take. He struggled at 1st against Miami but rebounded well. Give him a year under Munchak and I'd like to see where this raw talent ends up.

I also look forward to seeing how embernasty develops.

Coaty Wallace

good deal happy bout that

I agree MAC might help with the Pounce

 

I like this signing. Hopefully it's not too big of a FISTfull of dollars though.

 

Give me one more Oline signing and I'm pretty happy.

Beachum, Foster, Pouncey, DeCastro, Gilbert , Adams, Embernate, and Wallace. We probably should only carry 9, so this is looking good. Another position to avoid in the draft. That is unless someone like Matthews for no reason falls to us.

 

I'd say this spells the end for Velasco. Wallace can play center and we only need one back up center. Makes sense as Velasco would have cost much more than Wallace. We need the money for depth in other areas.

 

we have used 3 the last two years though.

 

if he's healed by the time we need him. we do have snow still I think.

 

I think the Steelers like him as a starter. Problem is we already have a starter at center.

 

Yeah I figured that...but hey one can dream right? haha

 

Really want to see how Embernasty develops.

I'd bet Munchak won't let guys he's trying to evaluate sit the bench during pre-season either.

 

I was amazed at how lucky we got, bringing in free agents to replace the center position last year.
Overall, I thought Velasco looked better, but he didn`t last...
Cody did just fine, despite all the jokes, cuz he got caught on tape, doin what players for every team do, at the bottom of the pile...
He seemed to call out protections just fine, and wasn`t a turnstile, like sum other linemen...
Decent backup, and if he has the "position flexibility" that Tomlin covets, Good player to have.
Forgot all about Embernasty... Nice to have options...

 

I am thinking just the same, Velasco depending
on his health HAS TO BE A HIGH PRORITY!
