meh, dont know much about him. im sure coach mitchell will make him better though. maybe with the lack depth at DE, the chance of mclendon scooting over to DE is a real possibility

That's not a good sign if you got replaced by another DE. Then again Sean is a freak of nature from the times I've seen him. (I'm person and on the field. ) but well see. We're scrounging here

wow. we could have as many as 5 new starters on defense this season.
Get freakin Jared Allen for our open DE spot! The guy is a beast,he'd be
perfect for a couple years until we can groom a young stud replacement.

He has openly said that he would rather retire than sign a small contract.

Not to mention he played in a 4-3 system if I remember correctly.
Hey,worth a shot. It's not my money but I'd give him 3 yrs 18m. 4/3 or 3/4 doesn't matter
with a guy like him I'd float him all around the line in various schemes. The guy knows
how to wreak havoc,something we have been lacking for awhile now.
Array title="salamander has a reputation beyond repute">
You can't just bring in a career 4-3 guy, especially at his age, and expect him to automatically adjust to a 3-4 scheme. Plus, as LLT alluded to, he's seeking a lot of money.
Why?? He's not very good at all
not deserving of a thread of its own so placed it here ( good a place as any )
Gerry Dulac @gerrydulac 9m #Steelers were eyeing Packers LB Mike Neal in FA but he re-signed w Green Bay. Big-body type who could play ILB and OLB.
Thomas isn't any better than McLendon...and possibly worse. He'd be depth...an upgrade over Woods if anything...
doubt he is as good as Woods , I would be hesitant to give him a contract if we where not so desperate at this point ...if we draft a couple D-lineman at any point he may not make the final 53 ... started fast and faded as fast ..Fangupo is a better Nose and one of us MIGHT give him a run for his money at end ....
I think I would rather not sign anyone
Paul @Dwinsgames 11m @gerrydulac ANY word on Carrington ? still in town ? left ? anything
Gerry Dulac @gerrydulac 53s
@Dwinsgames meets Friday am

so this is why we have not heard anything yet , was led to believe they where meeting today but it is tomorrow morning

Cam Thomas - 2012 analysis / ranking = #46 :

There are zero from the Steelers in that list. To put that in perspective, Cleveland has three.....wow
Array title="GBMelBlount has a reputation beyond repute">
Maybe having no pressure is the bigger reason we are giving up big plays in the secondary...
"With love, with patience, and with Faith

Yeah. But the thing is that the stats, some other reports, and the benching indicate that Thomas has not consistently done any of the positive things the article talks about.
Array title="GBMelBlount has a reputation beyond repute">
I sort of assumed that based on the #46 ranking.

Fair enough. I was just frustrated about the general excitement about Thomas amongst Steelers fans. Not here, I am happy to say. But too many seem all pumped up because he is "name" they have heard of.
Of course, since the Steelers are currently auditioning beer vendors and parking attendants to play DL - maybe he would be a good idea.
James Starks Greenbay running back to visit with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Hope they check out LaGarette Blount also.

We need RB depth badly. I'll take whatever we can get at this point.
this is a great move
We need some other running backs on the depth chart

Starks always played well against us. Kid sure hasn't fumbled much and is bigger than I thought. Wonder what kind of money he's looking for?

How well did Carrington play before tearing his quad.
"With love, with patience, and with Faith
....She'll make her way" ~ Natalie Merchant
played well as a rotational guy in 2012 , moved up to starter job in 2013 played 3 games before tearing the quad and was having a good year from the reports I have read , coaches where highly disappointed in him going down as they where looking for big things from him ...
mind you this is stuff I have read and got from talking to a couple bills fans who evaluate talent on blogs and twitter , nothing that I have witnessed first hand
