Chris Harris can be traded. I would be calling up right now talking with John Elway about a 4th, tell him I'm willing to do more. Maybe something based on play. And I would extend Harris 3 years. Still draft a corner high. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warfelg Posted December 31, 2018 Author Share Posted December 31, 2018 I think if you trade for Harris fast, you can get Vance as the DC, and I think then you can make 2 moves fast in FA: Deoine Buchannon and Shaquille Barnette. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only reason I say that is because I think getting Vance Joseph as a defensive coordinator might be incentive for Chris Harris in negotiating a new deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VigilantZombie Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 On a side note I would honestly be shocked if Mike Munchak did not leave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe. Reading that doesn't really sound like that though. I think he just sees it as he needs a new town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While Chris Harris would be nice, heavily relying on two 30-year-old cornerbacks (if even for just a year) troubles me for some reason. Even if you ignore that, it stunts Hilton's growth as Harris' strength is playing the slot in Nickel situations. It essentially takes Hilton off the field.

Honestly. He blitzed 40% of the time and had the highest passer rating against of all our CB's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also: I think this would let us release Haden, and in that move we would save $4mil on the cap in the transaction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Harris in Joe Haden on the same team would be very promising Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warfelg Posted December 31, 2018 Author Share Posted December 31, 2018 Also in terms of moves that can (and should) be made: Marcus Gilbert - The combo of Feiler and Chucky Oak performed really well in his place. We would save nearly $5mil in releasing him. He' been really injury prone his entire career. Bud Dupree - Bud had not improved, and was given the 5th year option. Given he was not injured, his 5th year option was not guaranteed. Cutting him would save $9.2 million on the cap. Morgan Burnett - He was on and off the field, and when he was on he might as well have been off. Did not provide anything and 3rd year man Sean Davis along with rookie Terrell Edmunds played a greater number of snaps with no difference in production. Cutting Burnett would result in a $3.6mil savings. Those three cuts alone would save $17.8 million on the cap for the Steelers, and can be paired with the $14.5mi rollover from Bell to add an additional $32.3 mil in cap space for 2019.
