Are the 'burgh media whispering that Colbert should go?

[QUOTE=Big Ern McCracken;556447]Not 100% sure what UDFA is referring to... but, if it means Undrafted Free Agent...

Will Johnson for sure. Arguably the most productive rookie of last year's class[/QUOTE]

Good call. Missed him on my list above.

[QUOTE=Mister Pittsburgh;556434]You also can't blame subpar talent they were evaluated wrong and picked in the wrong rounds, or at all.[/QUOTE]

yup, the more tomlin is involved in evaluting and drafting these players, without having the ability to develop and motivate, the steelerrs will continue to go backwards

this is a long but good article well worth reading about Colbert posted by kipper from the Pittsburgh Sports Forum...

I know you don't like him, but that doesn't change the fact it's a well-written article.

Obviously, that's why Colbert traded up in 2003 to nab Troy so Cowher couldn't draft Alonzo Jackson in round 1 like he wanted, and why Dan Rooney basically pulled rank in 2004 to draft Ben when Cowher preferred Shawn Andrews.

The two most important players the last 10 years and "Power hungry" Bill Cowher didn't want either of them and was basically under-minded by superiors to make it happen.
