Jalen Ramsey

It's always that way to me.

 

Is there any chance that the Steelers did not like something they saw in 34-year-old Darius Slay at OTAs that made the Jalen Ramsey trade happen?


"Hey Darius, you have to find another gear, or we are going to be in big trouble."

 

Recent writeup saying he has a gimpy knee he had surgerized last season. He also had multiple nicks throughout the season but still got on the field. Probably a ticking time bomb....

 

i think it's just to bolster the whole defensive backfield. extended elliott. signed thornhill. signed slay. signed ramsey. signed echols. pierre was brought back as well but for ST's mainly but could help him. this can also help castro, kent, porter, trice, bishop. out are sutton, edmunds, fitzpatrick, kazee, jackson.

 

Ramsey is a question mark for me, especially at 30. If he can be the competitive shutdown player we've seen him be at times during his career, that would be awesome. But what about his mouth and attitude that he's also become known for? When you're on your 4th team in 10 years, it raises an eyebrow. Cautiously optimistic.

 

Said this before about Ramsey, he is a head case, not as bad as Pickens but does have some issues. He has been like that with every team he was own. We shall see.

 

I f**king hope not, I hope it's just to bolster the whole D.

 

When the season ends Darius Slay will be 35. How many starting CBs in the league are 35?

They had to learn something from watching Patrick Peterson struggle in 2023. Funny Note, Slay and Peterson are the same age, and Petrson retired after the 2023 season playing for Pittsburgh.

I think Khan may regret that 1 year $10 million contract he gave to Slay.
