    Lendale White?

    There is a rumor being circulated that the Steelers may be interested in a draft-day trade for Lendale White?

    [url]http://insidepittsburghsports.com/story/steelers-to-consider-draft-day-deal-for-lendale-white/24774/[/url]

    I don't have access on that site, so I can't see the article. What does everybody think?

    If Lendale White was somebody else (in other words, a different person with the exact same skill set), I'd consider it for a 5th or 6th. But White's towel stomp a few years ago kills it for me.

    I'm torn on this one because there is no doubt that Lendale White is worth a 5th or 6th round draft choice. But after his Terrible Towel stomp, I don't believe he should ever have the privilege of wearing the Black and Gold.

    Besides, if anyone ever were to sign LenDale to a long-term contract and give him the financial security he's looking for, White would end up looking like this:

        I still can't believe the towel stomping outrage. I love the Steelers. But, that gesture doesn't boil my blood in any way.
        Even if Bill Belichick was getting an atomic wedgie, his face would look exactly the same.

            I hear the Pillsbury Dough Boy is available for a 6th.

              No, draft the same type back and develop him.

                Is Lendale any better than Frank the Tank?

                  White is a bust. No thank you, I'll take my chances with a rookie.

                    Sign him for league minimum, take him to training camp, then let Harrison and Woodley make him pay for stepping on the Terrible Towel

                    Then release him...

                      Wouldn't it be kinda strange if the Steelers got Lendale White for the pick that they received from trading Santonio Holmes considering there were so many on the old Trib board who really wanted the team to take Lendale with the pick they originally got Santonio with??? I just think it would be funny considering we really would be just accomplishing the same thing many wanted the team to do 4 years ago.....hmmmmmmm!!!

                          Give him a good ole fashioned pink belly, hose the whale into the community showers, then give him a Terrible Towel to dry off and see what he does.
