So much happened today, alot of smart cuts

Ok I'm good with Russ being a Steeler. Let's see if it goes thru.

With Pat Pete, can easily improve from the player but difficult to replace the person

I don't love a Russell Wilson signing, but if we are going to do it for the vet minimum I just hope he pushes Pickett to his best self. I thought we were restructuring some contracts too to make a little more cap space, but if we stay like this obviusly we won't make any significant splash, just will sign more stop-gap players once again which I really don't like. I was hoping we sign a good CB, LB, S and WR, so we could address OL early in the draft, I was thinking something like this: FA Signings: QB: M. Rudolph/ R. Wilson WR: T. Boyd/ M. Hollins CB: K. Fuller/ S. Murphy-Bunting S: J. Blackmon/ T. Edmunds LB: J. Baker/ D. Tranquill DL: A. Watts/ M. Adams P: T. Townsend/ C. Bojorquez/ B. Mann Mock Draft: 1. OT: A. Mims/ JC Latham/ T. Fautanu 2. IOL: Z. Frazier/ S. Van Pran 3. CB: M. Sainristil/ K. Abrams-Draine/ M. Melton 4a. ILB: C. Gray/ J. Ford/ T. Eichenberg 4b. WR: B. Rice/ L. McCaffrey 6. DL: G. Hall/ K. Randolph/ F. Lovett 7. QB: J. Milton/ S. Hartman/ D. Leary

Pickett survived, Trubisky died, Rudolph THRIVED!

I’m for them putting together a defense that doesn’t change middle linebackers corners and safeties every year. I understand there are opportunities to bring in players and there’s cap space issues and all of that. But I wish they would figure out a way to put together a defense that has some consistency in personnel from year to year.

I think everyone is missing whats going on here. Omar has to have a contingency plan if he cant get Mason signed. Thats all this is with Wilson. Everyone seems to forget that Mason could be offered a bag elsewhere and throw up the peace sign. Then what? Yes we have Kenny, but with his tendency to get hurt, whos the veteran backup? Or maybe Wilson is the starter if Mason isnt able to be signed to allow Kenny to sit and learn. Everyone just assumes Mason is a slam dunk re-sign when he can choose to go wherever he wants. This is probably his one and only chance to get a big contract so one cant blame him for shopping around. IMO, talking to Wilson is nothing more than a backup plan should Mason go elsewhere.

I think Larry O May be next I’m calling this a much overdue rebuild

If the Steelers can sign Russell Wilson to a cap friendly contract it could be an improvement in qb play with the new OC. It would at least provide some competition especially if Rudolph leaves. Appears as if the Steelers are looking to upgrade at several positions.

Every time you start a video with, “Hey, everybody” my brain hears, “Hey, good buddy” and it makes me happy.

Hopefully Wilson Pickett can make good music for the Steelers! Lol

Very mixed feelings on Wilson. He’s a clear upgrade over what we have, but we are gonna have to draft another QB in the next year or two. I feel like Wilson would be just good enough that we would never have a high enough draft pick to get a blue chip rookie, and I hate packaging picks to tease up in the first. It’s always such a risk that alters your franchise one way or the other.

Steelers need center, but what is role for Nate Herbig. He played only 3 games on O line. He is not playing all FG, XP snaps on ST. As a top 10 player in Cap $, he played fewer snap than the players above his cap $, or ten players below his cap, excluding IR players. Too much cap $, for his overall snap count. If he was the plug and play IOL guy, he should have finished at C the last half of season. Both Peterson and Robinson did more to earn their paycheck than Nate.

I don't think Russ is the vet we're looking for. This year should be all about Pickett. If he stays healthy and wins, we have our QB. If he gets injured again, or if QB play doesn't improve then we have 2025 to scout QBs. I do think there's merit in getting a mid round QB instead of the typical late 6/7 round that we've done for the past decade. I'd personally would love if we drafted Spencer Rattler in the 4th or 5th round.

So this is my fear - Pickett starts, plays bad, then fans chant we want mason. Then Mason wins some games, then loses some games. Then what will fans chant for? I see another 9-8 or 10-7 season, with another first round 20th pick again, and another wasted year. We have to mix things up

I don't like the idea whatsoever of bringing in a Wilson rental with the idea of "getting over the top" I would like a rental Wilson move, if we were hyped to grab a fresh top rookie QB. So from that standpoint Wilson would be more of a bridge QB than the hopeful savior QB. I just don't like Wilson and can't see myself being hyped for my team, when I don't like our most important player. I would rather come up short with Kenny than to win anything with Wilson. That's just me. I've been a Steelers fan way too long to enjoy the idea of selling out for a cheap rental QB.

We are crazy if we don’t sign Wilson, it’s a win win deal, Rudolph will want much more than he’s worth, I’d like to see Wilson as the starter , give Pickett some time behind him. Pickett however, will never be better than average

Steelers were always too loyal to a fault. I hope things are changing. I like Peterson, but he had to go.

I don’t think Wilson has much left. That said signing him for league minimum is a no brainer. There is no downside imo.If he stinks cut him. It’s worth the price of the lottery ticket…

I genuinely cannot comprehend how anyone who watched the end of last season thinks that Rudolph shouldn't be the Quarterback next year.

Wilson was done when he was still with Seattle. Anyone could see that. Great career but it’s over.

What's going on Alex. I'm not on board with Wilson. Mason played better than him. Even at the vet minimum I say no he's washed and doesn't throw the intermediate ball at all. I would like to see a dominant center. This is Pittsburgh after all

Wilson is better than Pickett. He’s better than Mason. Be skeptical all you want. He’s an upgrade and a steal. And the Broncos was a 💩 show so I wouldn’t put much stock in anything that happened there.

Man I'm good on RW. After the poor showing in Denver and his unceremonious exit I would rather suffer through KP and Rudolph one more year than pay this dude.

For the life of me: How is it that EVERY talk;n head can ramble infinitum? -finding ANYTHING to talk about except the elephant in the room? YET never tell us why the franchise DENVER would not play a QB they are paying, paying a guaranteed that is more than OVER half of ALL the #32 teams individual position groups; go pick a position group like WAS O-Line or Minnesota WR group and Russell Wilson will make MORE than a group BY NOT PLAYING FOR ONE SEASON. Why do we not get an answer?... Why would Denver do this? What is the benefit? AT least the talk'n heads we go to listen COULD speculate why this is going on?

😂😂😂

Pursuing Wilson reeks of desperation.

Kenny is not a qb1 on any team

Bring in released BUFF S Poyer, CIN Slot Receiver Tyler Boyd, resign Mason Rudolph for 4 seasons, bring in FA C either from MIA or DAL. Extend Dionte, then trade him for a really nice sideline tablet for Kenny Panic to watch the games on. Draft either ND QB Riley Skinner or OSU QB Will Howard in '25.

If Wilson's wife allows him sign in Pittsburgh. QB room should look like this. Russell Tanehill Rookie. Kenny shipped off for a sandwich and chips.

I’m on board with cuts need more Leal, pierre, mark Robinson , Sullivan bring Myles and rose back along with thompson resign Bud Dupree and Lev bell 5:25 5:26

NO RUSS. He is washed.

JOE MILTON = STEELER

I begged...No...wilson sucks...i give up...p.o.s qb...

If they get Wilson, I’m out.

Does Wilson wife approve? She is making the decision not him. Hell we could get the water boy line up under center play better than Kenny. Hope Kenny cries be traded and ship him off for a 7th and bag of chips.

Cut Laudermilch mikal Walker mark Robertson lrrdign Marcus golem bring Adams and watts back

Rudolph stinks!

Russ is so weird! I mean, I guess it looks like a good idea on paper?
