Hoke agrees to one year deal

Just heard on radio

Anyone hear it or have something????

IMO a better move than Gay and Moore.

Good signing! You can never have too much depth on the DL.

Hoke is a class act and unlike Mdwelde Moore and, IMO, Gay, Hoke contributes every play he is on the field.

By not drafting a NT this year, they practically guarenteed they needed to bring Hoke back.

I guess this means NT becomes a 90% chance of draft selection next year as our #1 & #2 NT's combine for 70 years of age...

Very good signing. If Gray shows anything, let him battle McLendon for a spot on the practice squad.

Casey signed a three year deal, and this will be year 2. If they're going to look for a Casey replacement, I think next offseason is the year to draft a young guy and give him a year to learn.

Re: Hoke agrees to one year deal

Hoke could be one of the rare players to finish his entire career with one team, despite never starting for that team except as an injury fill-in (10 years with the Steelers, 16 total starts...10 of which occurred in 2004 when Hampton was placed on I.R. after 6 games with a knee injury).
