    I would also add that no matter how 'shutdown' Revis is, if the Steelers don't fix their pass rush, even Revis will struggle to cover some of the WRs for 4 or 5 seconds.

    The Steelers have done this before. Their corners were getting ripped until they added Woodley opposite Harrison. They thought they had a tandem set for 5 yrs but unfortunately Harrison got old, and Woodley got fat/lazy.

      Ridiculous amount of money to pay a CB in my opinion. Probably would prevent the Steelers from signing 2 or 3 targeted players. Too rich for my blood...
      I dont think I agree with this. He was the main reason their team went to back to back AFC Championship games. It was not their QB. Revis was literally shutting down a 3rd of the field. He was without question the best player they had on their team.

      But having said that..12 million is a lot to be paying anyone who isnt a franchise QB.

        Re-sign Keenan Ivory Lewis for a more reasonable sum. He's competent, durable, and knows the defense.
        By the post I was suggesting the Steelers get Revis. Just posting league information. I agree with you. Let's re-sign Keenan Lewis.

          Appreciate your posts, Dee Dub. The threads about draft possibilities bring good thread discussions, and informs me (I'm not a draftnik).
