    He was on NFL Network tonight and he just said he would like to return to the Steelers and he had a tough year. When they asked him if he would play for another team he said he don't know right now.

    Although I don't see him playing for another team, never say never.

    I wish he would retire. I don't see a role for him on this team where it's going under Bruce Arians. He likes all deep passes.

    But we might need him since I read on Steelers Depot that the Broncos signed Tyler Grisham to a future contract.

    I wish he would retire.If the Steelers released him,And he was offered to play somewhere else,I'm very sure he would sign elsewhere?

    Cotchery is gone...he will be the 4th receiver...so what....I'm fine with that.

    Ward is washed up if you only run 20 yard routes.

    He would still be money if you run 5 yard routes to move the chains.

    I think they keep him for the right money, he will have to restructure his deal. It's tough seeing him like this, however I think he can still play when given the chance, he had a big game against the Titans this year.

    Cotchery is gone? Where did he go?

    I think Ward can still work wonders in the slot 5-12 yards. Plus he's pretty good at YAC.

    Cotchery can start for someone else - he'd be foolish to stick around and be #4 here when he can make bigger money (and start) elsewhere.

    He could be the #3 for a lot of teams...I bet you Jets wished they had him back that is for sure...

    Cotchery is almost 30.

    He has a choice, move on to another team or stay with a Super Bowl contender.

    The teams he would start for would more than likely not be Super Bowl contenders.

    He will be given a chance to compete for a starting job elsewhere which is something we can't give him. I think he will definitely leave because someone will pay him more for a larger role. Only way he is a Steeler next year is if we lose Wallace.

    Like, I said, he has a choice. Go somewhere to start = more money, or stay with the Super Bowl contender = less money, but a shot at a ring.

    With a bigger contract he can buy lots of rings... depends on the ring he wants I guess.

    with sanders not playing much and hines having reduced PT, cotchery would be a #3 here. even at 4 in this offense of 5 wides, he would get alot of playing time. :cool:
