Good news.

Grillin N Chillin with Zach Gentry and Pat Freiermuth is back!![]()
The steelers have 3 NFL caliber TE in their team so a TE in the first fourth round in the next draft is very unlikely
I now wonder if they bring back 30yr old Derek Watt as FB. Connor Heyward can line up as FB and 3rd TE. Glad to have Gentry back though. He played well last year I thought.

Figured this would happen, but they wanted to give him the breathing room ala Edmunds last year. Which is OK, if the player can go out there and get more than I'm sure the FO is all for it. But they have the numbers figured out well in advance of free agency I'm sure. Here's what we can afford, here's what we'll offer, hopefully they meet in the middle.
Either way, I'm glad it happened, the draft class is pretty bad. Plus the dude's bulked up considerably since his big blue days.
After the Post-Heath Years, its nice to have good TE's again in Freiermuth and Gentry.
Was it just a one-year deal or did the lock him up for a couple?
