The Steelers bungled this signing. The Steelers don't sign big name free agents so we must sign the one or two starters we get from each draft...
I wonder if it would be cheaper to franchise him three years in a row instead of paying him an expensive contract for three years.....(just...
You're right. I read yesterday from a reporter that it was going to be the non-exclusive rights tag so I assumed it. But it turned out to be the...
NY STEELERFAN- the only thing I'm saying was unwise in this whole Bell discussion is the fact that the Steelers waited until Bell cost the most to...
There is no evidence that the Steelers believe that non-breakaway speed is not that important. But there is evidence that the Steelers agree with...
Bleedsteel- Perhaps you are misunderstanding what I'm trying to say.. I'm not calling Steeler management stupid for keeping Bell a Steeler. I'm...
Just a note on A.J. Green's contract which made him the highest paid WR up until now...here's a link that shows his $32.7 mill guaranteed number...
With AP and Jamaal Charles getting cut, it seems to me the RB market price is going down, not up.
Tagging a player doesn't 'just give them time to sign a new contract'. It goes a long way toward establishing the guaranteed money that will be in...
Let's look at what you said: 1. When the highest paid RB is getting $8.5 mill per year, you're saying Bell would have gotten $15 mill per year?...
We're STILL risking signing a guy who got suspended, aren't we?? Let's look at the risk/reward: Sign him while suspended for $10 mill...
The reason why Bell franchise is dumb is because: - The least amount of value is to franchise a RB. -After Adrian Peterson and Jamaal Charles get...
Terrible timing by Steelers management. Stupid. Should have signed him to a long term deal when he was suspended, when his market value was...
Thanks TTF for this web board. Thanks also for keeping the trolls and flamers under control. I would have left by now if you hadn't done that....
You improve the team by getting rid of the weaknesses, not the strengths.
Belichick has been doing this stuff, only worse, for years.
OK, you're right. I agree. Good points.
I read an article in the P-G interviewing Colbert. Back when they were signing the old guys to 3rd contracts, 2013-2014. Colbert said that most...
I'm a little more optimistic. Bell will be franchised so that won't be the highest contract ever for a RB. Brown still has one more year salary at...
Recall when Colbert and Tomlin said publicly that they were going to make one more run with the old guys? Polamalu was a good example, signed in...
