Steeler FO did OK: Wallace might be out of football next year

[SidSmythe]

Only a D'bag would care about his 40 time vs winning football games

Maybe he could race a horse.

Ask yourself this: Did they offer the contract to Wallace before Brown. If you answer "Yes", ask yourself this: What if Wallace had accepted the contract? Where would A. Brown be? Would we have M. Bryant or for that matter S. Coates.

The simple fact is the F.O.tried to sign Wallace. How hard they tried, I don't know. I just hate it when the average fan says the Steelers nailed it letting Wallace walk and signing Brown. Although factually true, not 100% accurate

those same average fans were the ones saying, "pay the man. give him the money"

I love that jerk washing out his career in Minnesota where, seriously, no one gives a rip about NFL. He's done, whether he knows it or not.

And yes, the Steelers played it perfectly with Wallace and Antonio Brown. Our guy is the best player in the league, and Wallace is reduced to making up his 40 yard dash times.

we played it perfectly AFTER Wallace rejected our offer.

it's like a guy playing it perfectly by marrying his wife after getting rejected by his selfish greedy cheating girlfriend.

Correct, but not before.Let's be glad Wallace rejected the offer from the Steelers before they gave it to A. Brown

I'm not placing the importance on "after" that you Wallace fans are. No one said the guy was worthless. I'm sure we/Steelers offered him money, just like I'm sure Brown was going to get offered money EVEN if Wallace was signed. The point it, we/Steelers played it perfectly in letting this VERY average, short lived, and not-worth-the-energy player go, and keeping the best player in the NFL around. There is no other way to look at this.

They played it so Wallace would reject it. Like annoying your girlfriend to the point that she'll break up with you instead of you breaking up with her. Believe me, I've had to do this plenty of times in my young jiga days.

very few fans were in favor of giving Wallace the type of contract Miami gave him...

Quite the Jiga-lo.
