We should’ve drafted anybody over Pat Freiermuth.
Any self respecting Steelers fan that yells “Muth” when he does something is a clown. He should not even be mentioned in the same breath as Heath Miller.
Won’t be switched to tackle. Word is his knees, which are already in bad shape, wouldn’t be able to handle the extra weight.
We should have drafted a real QB to help Freiermuth.
He had 60 catches for 497 yards with a HOF QB. He doesn’t stretch the field and his blocking is subpar.
How would a different QB help him block anyone. His HUGE weakness is he can't block his own shadow and what makes it worse is he shows very LITTLE effort in blocking. There are replays from last year where he tried to cut block and just basically fell down, very embarrassing. Now he will catch anything near him and he runs great routes, but in this offense the TE must block.
Probably doesn't matter if the TE's can block. There isn't a starting Center on the roster.
You are being very kind to his blocking ability. I would say it sucks. And it's okay if you can't block for shit if you are weapon running routes and catching the football.... but he hasn't done much of that either (as you noted with his best stat line).
Damn. Not sure this was your intention or not but I was hoping your thread was about a trade to the Skins.
I can’t stand steeler fans and I’m one of them I suppose.
He's 6'7" and only 264 lbs. He'd have to gain at least 60 lbs to play OT. Probably more like 80. Not sure an extra 80 lbs on those knees is a good idea. And it would take at least a couple of years at least to add 60 to 80 good pounds.
Washington ran a 4.64 40 at the combine. He could be a better pass catcher than Muth is blocker. Not saying that he will be a great pass catching TE. Just saying he is faster than Muth.
Or a starting RT or a number one Wr But hey Russ is going to will them to a playoff win like he’s done recently ……,
He spent 2 years as OL coach in Denver. Was it to be near his daughter or get away from the Steelers?
