Oh, sorry I thought I was in the draft thread lol! I never paid any attention to him when watching the Cardinals play so his name didn't jump out at me. I don't have time (or interest) in following rosters for anyone except the Steelers.Quote:

Josh Rosen should just go to the XFL or USFL at this point. Or he's trying to break Ryan Fitzpatrick's record for teams played.Quote:

Brown has made the last 4 pro-bowls so I'm not sure how that labels him as "not good"? We could have had him for that money. Now he'll be blocking TJ or Highsmith.
From what I've read he was looking at the Jets/Steelers/Bengals and choose them because of more guaranteed money. Sad if that's all it was, the dude is 26.
I really wanted to sign him so we could have focused the draft on CB and other needs.
Everything I've seen about him from an analytics standpoint is that he's overrated.Quote:

He's definitely not athletic! His combine proved that. One of the worst ever.Quote:

The Steelers don't give big guarantees but they do make contracts for big annual money, then like to extend/negotiate the terms later and get other players signed. 19 consecutive non-losing seasons, must be doing something right.
Not even a Shanahan offense could help Josh Rosen, huh?Quote:

According to some posters on this forum that's exactly how you should do things though. IF you don't like a player you send him packing, because since he didn't work you should just grab someone/anyone else and all will be better. There are guys out there that will play QB for the Raiders. One of those guys is better than Carr or Garappolo, you just know it. I've also read on here Matty Ice is available and you can get him cheaper.Quote:

If they could get Edmunds to agree to a 3 year deal around that value, I fail to see how the Steelers shouldn't jump at that opportunity. Edmunds will never live up to some expectations based on his draft position, but he is hardly an overall negative to the defense. I believe he is good at doing the dirty work that allows others to make plays. Sure, he is not the only reason nor the only player capable of that. But he knows the system and Fitzpatrick has repeatedly expressed that he likes playing flanked by Edmunds.Quote:

During his nine years with the Raiders Carr never won a playoff game. Garoppolo has a record of 5-2 in the playoffs.Quote:

The 52 players Garropolo had bs the 52 players Carr had is a big difference not to mention the coaching staff and front office differences. Lol
The big difference is that Carr is a loser and Garropolo is a winner. LolQuote:
