    Timmons needs to be on the field on three downs no matter what.
    Agree.

    I LOVE Woodley but Timmons can be a bigger impact imo.

        I think I would rather take a flyer on Clin McCarthy of the U. A very high motor guy who really turned some heads at the Senior Bowl.
        I've heard Nate Irving's name mentioned alot lately and saw one Mock with us taking him. Anyone know anything about him?????
        "Nate Irving, NC State-great story actually, he was in a bad car accident and missed all of 2009. He had a collapsed lung, broken ribs, separated shoulder, and compound fracture in his leg. He started working to come back in late 2009. He ended 2010 with 93 tackles (led team) and 19.5 tackles for loss (4th nationally)."

            not yet, anyway.

            and when they do re up timmons, harrison will be coming off the books... sooner then later with his age
            Timmons is entering the last year of his rookie deal in 2011. Under normal circumstances, we would be trying to negotiate a long-term extension with him right now (of course, with no CBA, these are anything but normal circumstances).

            Harrison has 4 more seasons left on his contract. He won't be a free agent until 2015. He's not coming off the books when it is time to re-up Timmons.
            Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

            Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

            We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

            We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.

                i should have said when the big money in timmons' contract (or if he gets big $$) kicks in, debo's may be coming off the books.

                love Jimmy, but he'll be 33 in may and has a young 2nd rd pick behind him. i dont think he's going to see the end of that contract

                    Exactly

                    Which is why this Worilds should replace Woodley" talk is utter crap. JW was clearly drafted to eventually replace Harrison.

                        I think that Harrison will not be here for the full 4 years he has remaining on his contract. In two more years he will be 35 and while he may be able to still do it I think they will part ways with him or he will have to take a pay cut to stay.

                        I love the guy (in a fan sense) and think he is one the best players in the league but everyone moves on eventually. The front office will know the right time so not to lose promising young players.

                            when worilds came in to play the last quarter of the dolphin game, i think people forgot that he played the pre season predominately at the ROLB spot
