    I have no clue how well Taylor Lewan played last year, but he was very good previously. Would he be worthwhile for the Steelers to consider? I like the idea in my head, but again I am not sure if he started to decline rapidly last season or not.
    Hasn’t he been suspended multiple times for steroids?

    If he did it in his prime…he’s gonna be a juice bar as hie ages.

    You just jogged my memory, and I remember he did have a PED suspension a few years ago.

    I just checked and he is also older than I thought he was, as he will be 32 in July. Unless the price is right, my inclination is that the Steelers should pass.

BUT...they have stuck to a strict salary structure in the past, with no one getting paid more than the team leaders. It would be highly out of character for them to bring in a guy and pay him as much or more than MF, Watt, and Cam.

    As long as we are asking the Rams stuff....lets make Donald happen. That would be even more fun!

    No short term expensive free agents. If he want to sigh a 1 year deal four say 4 million dollars, bring him in for a physical. If he passes the physical then I say sign him fir a short cap friendly deal.
    The last time the Steelers won a playoff game it was 2016. That is six years ago. We are keeping the Jets and Lions company. The standard remains the standard.

    I don't believe the Ramsey "rumor". I don't think this team is ready for move like that. Seems to be more of a preseason/in-season move when the team is showing contending ability.

I agree with B&G, I’m not convinced the rumor is true.

    Re: Official Offseason thread

    Instead of debating backup QBs….

    IF…DL is Heyward, Adams, Leal, Loudermilk, and re-sign Ogunjobi, how important is a DL in the first 5 picks of this draft?

    IF…The Steelers re-sign 2 of Sutton, Edmunds, and Kazee, which 2 do you want?

    Personally, I think LT is the biggest need this offseason, draft or FA. The mock draft sites overwhelmingly think CB is the Steelers biggest offseason need. What do you guys think it is?

    I love Kazee but I think I’d have to sign the other two…

    I really think the first 3 picks will be an offensive tackle, defensive lineman, and a CB. I'm just not sure which order these spots will be picked. Obviously some of this depends on free agency as well and what the team does there. If I am mocking the Steelers first three picks today, here are two scenarios that I think are realistic:

    17. Joey Porter Jr., CB
    32. Bryan Bresee, DL
    49. Jaelyn Duncan, OT

    or

    17. Broderick Jones, OT
    32. Bryan Bresee, DL
    49. Eli Ricks, CB



    Sutton and Edmunds for the last question.

    Similar to the Joe Haden move…that one worked out well. I think this is very similar to that idea…not sure what each players time frame was/would be before they landed in Pittsburgh but I feel like it’s close…

    I’m not sure he can still walk. His knees have kept him off the field for most of the past 4-5 seasons. He would need to pass multiple physicals, IMO.

    I honestly don’t know if what we already have isn’t better at this point. Like I said before, he would need to pass multiple physicals for me to get excited about signing him. When he played he was great. I don’t think he’s played a full season worth of games in several years combined.

    If…he passed the physicals, and we couldn’t get someone play ready in the draft, possibly. He’d be a no show for TC.

    Jamir Jones re-signs to a 1 year deal. Likely leader for the #4 OLB job.

    Steelers GM Omar Khan said he loves the way Mitch Trubisky worked with Kenny Pickett and would like Trubisky to be around long-term, including beyond next season.

    the Chiefs know what they have. And they're protecting their Franchise QB with this move. I'd like to see the Steelers go LT in R1 or R2, its unflashy but needed.

    Just wow, they see Mitch as a mentor. I still don't see what Mitch can mentor KP on.

    8 million dollars, well when 1500 sf ordinary houses are going for 1.4 million in some areas around here i'm not surprised....money is not worth the paper its printed on....

    Mitch might be one of those guys that knows what to do but just can’t execute it. Theres a lot of those guys around the NFL…

    I thought that was Dobbs. Anyway if that's Mitch also then so be it. Hopefully KP stays healthy and we're spared the tag team of Mitch and Matt.

    If it's doable financially why not? With TJ's durability sort of in doubt we need a capable third OLB.

    If Steelers got Bresee at 32 I’d be shocked. And super pumped.
