Thank you Mr. Hampton for your years of service to the Steelers organization. Your efforts and contributions were and will always be appreciated. Saying all of that, it is time for the Steelers to move towards their future at the position, whether that be with McClendon or someone else. I think Steve could be really good as the starting NT but he will be a different style of player. He could give the team a better push in the pass rush but will not be as good against the run. That's why I think drafting an ILB early is important as they may be able to make up for some of that loss with a thumper like Minter or a ppremium athlete like Ogletree. Unless they plan on targeting a guy like John Jenkins in round 2.

With an over-aged-over the cap 8-8 team...I would say anyone with the arrow pointing down should be a little nervous.

As far as Hampton, his play has declined to where he is not "signficant". There really is no reason to bring him back.

Vince Wilfork was better.

...last year...

But, overall, I think Hampton had the better career...
