    Hopefully, this gets resolved quickly.
    Wallace may wait until after training camp to sign his tender and report...if so, negotiations will be suspended until that time...they will then have the remainder of the preseason to work out a long term deal, because the Steelers don't negotiate during the season...

    There is still time to get a multi-year deal done, but I'm not going to hold my breath...

    You don't reward a guy by negotiating when he isn't around. If he doesn't show until the start of the season they he should have to play for his tender offer.

    If he doesn't show up until the start of the season, that's what will happen...the Steelers will negotiate right up to the beginning of their first game (see Polamalu's contract), but once the season officially starts for the team, that's it...

    You misunderstand me...

    Once Wallace reports, negotiations can begin again anc continue until the first game of the season...

    Wallace is shortening his own negotiating window...
