CKSteeler Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 15 hours ago, warfelg said: What's funny is that's all in the time that Tomlin reportedly had the most influence over the draft. Reportedly had the most defensive control when they got better too. I think we really underrate Coach T at times. Reportedly, he's been calling plays throughout the entire Butler era. So no, the defense didn't magically improve because of some growing Tomlin influence. At least not based on anything that has actually been reported. And if we are going to look at the players that clearly had Tomlin's fingerprints on them, it aint good. Bush, Edmunds (who I['m not even as down on as most), and Artie Burns all say hi.

I imagine she is as brilliant as Mike Maylock, who, when you check on draft metrics that I posted, hovers around 30th in the league for all categories. Give me someone who knows how to judge players to fit the system the HC wants to run. idk how much around the horn, highly questionable, debatable, le batard, nfl live and so on you've watched but unlike mayock kimes simply does not miss man need to get the fans on board to turn the screws and make it happen asap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blitzburgh Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 A few GM interviews from outside. Indianapolis Colts executive Ed Dobbs, Los Angeles Chargers director of player personnel JoJo Wooden and Tennessee Titans vice president of player personnel Ryan Cowden. https://www.si.com/nfl/steelers/.amp/news/pittsburgh-steelers-three-outside-candidates-general-manager Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise she is a talking head without the experience to run a scouting department. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
August4th Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 yet to hire a DC or OL coach has me wondering if they're seriously considering going outside for the GM hire, so the new hire could have his input on these two open positions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C$! Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 Rapsheet is reporting the Steelers are going to interview ESPN commentator Louis Riddick for the GM job. Last worked for the Eagles in Player Personnel in 2013. I'm not a fan but that could just be based on how bad the Monday Night Football broadcast is. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has some interesting takes. He's passionate. If he interviews well and understands exactly what the team wants to build on, then I'm cool with him. If he wants to trade for Jimmy G, then run his *** out of town. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, it always strikes me as a bit of a red flag when someone has been out of the (any league) league for that long (almost 10 years). Not saying it can't work just it seems odd that they (anyone not just Riddick) couldn't catch one anywhere else. I know he is still around the game working for ESPN, but it's not quite the same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dcash4 Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 There’s no other GM spots open at this time, right? If that’s correct, it’s gonna be a long, long while till we make a hire I think. For the right reasons, but a bummer as a fan who wants some news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
