One of the best trades in Steelers history. Maybe ever when it's all set and done.

Yet, Dolphins fans are still saying how we got the raw end of that deal. :lol:

lol, they are probably holding back tears while saying that.

Unless Austin Jackson(whom they drafted with the 1st) becomes an All Pro caliber player himself, and Minkah decides to leave the Steelers, it's not close at all.

a poster on another board claims if we didn't make that trade we could have drafted Justin Herbert. :jerkit:

So how does the poster make the move up to the 4th pick to make that happen? I gotta hear this one...

we finished 8-8, he cited examples from 4 games where he claimed Fitzpatrick made the difference so we would have finished 4-12.

Ok. So he’s using a machine powered by wishes and random fantasies instead of a “realistic” alternative history. I mean good for him. But why not go all out and just argue that they could’ve gone all out tank and gotten Burrow?

When I was in high school, while working at the movie theater, Cindy Crawford came in to watch a movie. Earlier in the night, my buddy had asked me to switch jobs for the night (I went from door to box office). If I hadn’t have made that trade... I would have scored with Cindy Crawford.

Eh, maybe. There was zero intentions from the Steelers that they would have drafted a QB at that time.

Trade away a 1st round pick for a player but then don't pick up his 5th year option? Everyone would have been fired IF they hadn't done this. Plus Minkah is the glue on this defense probably helped in the decision process a little too.
