He’s a great WR, but he’s old and a rental. Maybe if we could rework his deal to something affordable-ish for one more year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re saying if we beat Dallas tomorrow and give up a 3rd plus a 2026 pick for Adams a few days later you’re not going to be at least a little excited? It’s been 8 years since we’ve won a playoff game. Screw the picks, screw the cap space I want an exciting team with a chance to make some noise in the playoffs! (probably why I’m not an NFL GM). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh no doubt. I’d be pumped. I just don’t think it’s smart for the team. Fun to watch, so actually let’s do this thing! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man, I’m with you on the fun and the playoffs… but there is just such a high probability that we are going into the 2025 season with no QB on the roster. And I’d rather not do that without a 2nd and a 4th round pick. I’d be for them going for it if they truly understand that the repercussions of missing are burning it down (aka, trade TJ and Minkah and anything else expensive and not tied down). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steelers have a lot of space and a franchise tag, I hate to use that, but they will not go into the season without a very viable veteran QB on the roster. Agree about draft picks though, and I’d rather have Slayton or Doubs for just one day 3 pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Steelers are more likely a leverage tool as usual, here and because of their offensive scheme. Edited 3 hours ago by rlon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s why I’m hesitant on Adams…at least someone like Aiyuk would be around for 4-5 more years…Adams probably 2 more at most. And the elephant in the room is Watt next offseason even though he probably signs another extension next offseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
