He was playing really good no doubt prior to injury, if they sign him , then it will be RT in RD1 or so I hope . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but he should be able to return by mid-season, at the latest, if he heals properly, with no setbacks. We have enough OC talent on the roster to suffice in the short run.

We have enough OC talent on the roster to suffice in the short run. In Week 3 against the Denver Broncos, Williams suffered a groin injury.[18] He was marked inactive the following Sunday against the Buffalo Bills, with Liam Eichenberg named starter instead. He suffered a season ending ACL tear in Week 14 against the Titans and was placed on injured reserve on December 13, 2023.[19] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rivers Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 How about drafting a Center in RD2 anyways and Williams can be the swing OG/C later once healthy? No need to rush him back and then they are set on the interior now and if they let Daniels walk next year. I would expect Williams to be costly, probably a reason he can't be a reserve and the knee injury and other injuries is another reason the signing won't happen.

ACL's are able to be come back from in 10 months time...is typically a shorter recovery than an achilles. I tore my R ACL, in my mid-30s, was not an athlete, and was back to normal in 6 months. Again, I was not an athlete, so it was easier for me, in that regard, but I didn't have a full-time training staff to work on me, either, so...

Ward4HOF Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 I'm sure they will make the right choice. Yes, Williams will be expensive, so good chance we don't sign him, but man, he had something like a 93% win rate when pass blocking last year--he's good.

I bet he signs a fairly short, fairly cheap, prove it deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to know your healed well. I tend to remember the players that re-injured their ACL's and it is a concern IMO. 45 minutes ago, MOSteelers56 said: He might not be that expensive.

Like I said, bring him in for nothing and have him be QB2 behind Russ for a year and see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do they trade him? No way they pick up the 5th year option if he is QB2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
armsteeld Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Supposedly, (former Steelers scout Matt Williamson) we are targeting 3 solid WRs: Stefon Diggs, Deebo Samuels, and Brandon Aiyuk. Aiyuk is 26 years old and is a tremendous route runner. His blocking ability is almost Hines Ward's level. He's the one I want the most out of those three, 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jebrick Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 5th year option decision is due in May. I would assume they are picking it up. Khan would be amazing if they would extend Fields now for cheaper money but it takes 2 to tango 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
