Honestly, this is about the dumbest thing I have heard of the Steelers doing in a long time.
You have a DT entering his prime that is the blueprint for what you want a DT to be in a pass wacky league. If you sign him NOW, you might get a bit of a hometown discount. But NOOO. We can't sign anyone during the season because some out-dated old man set of reasons. We also have to sign guys in some sort of order. Again, for outdated old man reasons.
Put it this way, if one guy between Haden and Hargrave has to hit the open or franchise tag market in 2020, who is
less likely to even think of leaving? Haden isn't going anywhere else unless the Steelers cut him.
Who knows. It might all work out. It is so long until this really all comes to a resolution, but it just strikes me as the exact opposite of smart.
