jebrick Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 19 minutes ago, oksteeler said: One of the things that makes me proud to be a Steeler fan has been the consistency of our organization. We don't gamble. We build thru the draft. You know the story. But now, we have a team with too many holes to fill. We traded away Brown (as we should have) but only netted picks (should have included at least one player). We have a coach that may not have command of the locker room. We pride ourselves in never taking big chances in trades, FA or the draft and yet this is probably the time we should be doing exactly that with an aging Ben. If we don't get aggressive and improve, then yes we should clean house in the front office. The NFL is cyclical. The Steelers have not had a losing record since 2006. That is a lot of late round drafting. It is a lot like the Colts in the 90's where they had 12 seasons of 12 wins or better. The lack of top end talent begins to show. Especially in their depth.

Stout against the run and can get after the QB. Should be a chance to get him on an affordable deal. I'd like to sign Tre Boston, Bradley Roby(pipe dream, I know), Markus Golden, and Deone Bucannon. Maybe try to grab Everson Griffen if he comes available. I'd even take one of the lesser CBs, like Desir, instead of Roby. If we can swing those dudes, our defense is fixed. Draft a WR or TE in the first like Hakeem Butler, Hock, or Fant. Super Bowl contender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VigilantZombie Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 I'm not saying it doesn't count for anything and I get a philosophy behind not having losing Seasons since 2006 but isn't every season for 31 teams technically a losing season? The only point I'm attempting to make here is at some point getting deep into the playoffs is not enough in this team has been in the past talented enough to win Super Bowls and have failed to do so and both in free agency and in the draft this front office has failed numerous times over the last four to five seasons. When you fail in the first round on top of having a late first-round pick your problems are polarized Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VigilantZombie Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 (edited) Apparently it's not finalized but it sounds like Le'Veon Bell is going to Oakland Edited March 12, 2019 by wwhickok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a great rb but his worst fit for a system is RPO so overspending on a not so ideal fit is what i like to see. As for us i think i would rather have tate at 8-9 per over williams at 12-13 per. Also curious to see when buchanon rumors start to heat up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oksteeler Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 I don't know how much Moncrief will cost. If he's affordable, I prefer him over most. He's an aggressive physical guy that will win most one on one fights for a catch. That would give us three receivers with the same physical style.
