    OT: NFL Draft QBs and the Steelers

    They should have taken his brother Gandolf. He could've really helped to shore up their secondary.

    Recruiting imbalance

    Wanny should have shut down the WPIAL until that wall was built.

    Always good to tune into PITT's flagship station (93.7 The Fan).............

    I'd respect their troll schtick if they had the balls to openly root for the Bengals and Ravens and say that the Steelers don't deserve to make the playoffs after losing to Oakland and tying the Browns. Of course they won't because they are pussies and they know yinzers would burn the station...

    Batko story on 2008 Sun Bowl

    That is pretty entertaining. More so than that game was anyway. McKillop: “Our first practice out there, Wannstedt had to cancel it midway through. I don't know if he’ll say that, but we may or may not have been all still drunk and hungover.” Bostick: “I remember Michael Irvin was there, on...

    Pitt’s Recruiting Wins n Losses.....

    Well, it does show the staff is at least trying to recruit players of that caliber. All for naught if they don't land them, but it is some counter to the "Narduzzi is lazy / afraid" narrative.

    Is RB the least important position in the NFL?

    Samuels had 78 carries and 75 catches his senior year with 4 TD catches and 12 rushing. The kid played RB, TE, FB, slot, and even wildcat QB. He was taken because his versatility would allow them to use him in similar fashion to Bell. They specifically sought him out for that. Hardly a warm...

    Is RB the least important position in the NFL?

    What argument would you make for doing that? This year they are spending a hair over 1% of their cap on RBs at $1.9mm. Next year they still have Conner and Samuels for about $1.5mm total, and given the additional reps those two will have had they can afford to bring in a rookie FA or low pick so...

    PITT 2019 Home Game Dates

    Acrimony aside, I share your frustration. Anyone who has to schedule a wedding, reunion, or some type of event probably agrees. October 2019 might seem like a long ways off, but in terms of event planning that isn't crazy. I am in charge of organizing a function this fall for a charitable...

    Is RB the least important position in the NFL?

    That is a function of the cap strategy as much as the game. Ideally, I think you'd still rather have one McCoy or Gurley, but with a cap, if you can have two decent backs for half of their salary that allows $4,000,000-$8,000,000 to spend on other positions. Plus you aren't screwed if one guy...

    Is RB the least important position in the NFL?

    Well Foles was a back-up. And, Flacco, unless of course you consider him elite.

    Ffrench and Dane Jackson

    Wasn't Burns' younger brother supposed to run for Pine Richland? Artie was All ACC in the 110 hurdles, but his brother is more of an intermediate 300m hurdles / 400m guy. He ran one of the fastest 300m prep times ever when he was at Northwestern.

    Requisite Robert Foster post

    My buddy took his wife to the Applebee's by Beaver Valley Mall for the 2-for-$20 last weekend and the bartender told him that Foster is as good as ours.

    Ffrench and Dane Jackson

    I understand the comparisons of Ffrench to Henderson based upon their common ability as returners and usage on sweeps. But I don't think that QH is a good barometer for Ffrench's pro prospects either. Q never came close to making a catch like the one that Ffrench had against Wake Forest...

    Ffrench and Dane Jackson

    We get it bud. You posting that every time someone mentions one of our under-recruited players is as tired as the posters who have an apoplectic meltdown when they commit.

    George Aston II

    70 rushing touchdowns in one season. 70. Indiana HS football might not be Florida or Texas, but he still did that at their highest classification. That is damn impressive.

    Ffrench and Dane Jackson

    I knew what you meant, just echoing the sentiment that if Lee (almost 2 1,000 yard seasons) wasn't ready, I'm not sure how Ffrench has proven himself. Obviously Ffrench has speed that Lee never did, so there is that. Somebody might take a chance on him as a special teams guy that could develop...
