I keep hearing this... is it including signing bonus? If so, $2.5 million is PEANUTS... Sounds like just above vet minimum plus a signing bonus (year one is where the biggest money is)... put it in perspective... it's 1/3 of what Harrison was going to make... it's like double vet minimum... I'm just baffled at all the complaints about $2.5 million... WTH???

As fans we don't value Foote. The Steelers must. So I can only as a fan hope he plays as well as 2012. I also can hope someone else is drafted or steps up so Foote does not see as many snaps. Against some teams he will be replace by a CB I think. Is it a good signing? I hope so and we will see 2013. Also can Connor or anyone CHEAP really come in and replace foote for 2013? That is the question. Steelers are not banking on it.

i think you're right on all counts... i'm just dumbfounded - other than rookie contracts, you don't get a starting ILB for $2.5mil... you just don't. And based on experience alone, he's even worth $2.5mil as a backup, should they find someone else... assuming $2.5 mil is the right number, and they view him as a stopgap and either a) get spence back or b) draft in ILB or C) both, it's a GREAT signing at a GREAT price...
and for the record, i very much DISLIKE foote as the starter - i wanted donta hightower instead of decastro...
