    The Pickett situation looks different now that injuries have all but destroyed his career. At the time, they were giving up on a guy whose development they stunted for Fields, a guy you and I both believed was not the answer.

    No, you cannot accurately call Darnold hindsight because I was arguing for them to sign him before he signed with the Seahawks.

    Then You can't call my Pickett hindsight because I was calling for Him to be done before his 2nd season was even over. Either way it matters not for the Steelers at this time, and I congratulate you on the Darnold talk

    Okay then why didn't they sign any big-name free agents? Khan admitted to the media he was playing the comp game; those are all the facts I need.

    I tip my cap for Pickett making it easy to move on from him. Thankfully he gave them an out and they jumped on it.

    Thank you for providing yet another example of your inability to tell the difference between fact and opinion, especially your fiction-based opinions.

    You mean the story that the team leaked that some folks here lapped up because they were annoyed with the guy for not overcoming Tomlin botching his development so badly.
