Jake Long

At the end of the day, what are the odds we bring back Max again?

Noone else is signing him so it might just happen

I'm not sure what to make of this, but according to Schefter, the Steelers made an effort to get Jake Long.



Most of the remaining guys on the tackle market appear to be RTs, so I'm not sure if the Steelers would make a play for one of these guys (with Adams/Gilbert to compete at LT) or if their interest was just in an elite LT like Long. Here is the list:

If Schefter's report is true, then perhaps the Steelers reported interest in Dumervil is legit.

It's all nonsense and trickery. They send out these rumors, trying to make it look like they are actively pursuing top players; it's all a charade. They knew they had zero chance of signing Long or Dumervil. Oh, and in case Pgh doesn't realize it; no one thinks playing for the Steelers gives you a shot at a ring. They are delusional if they think they will get players to sign with that PAST factor being in play.

This is how I figure #Steelers interest in Jake Long went:

Colbert: How about 2yr, 5M.

Long: No.

Exactly, just like that. IF that.

Kaboly's still butt hurt they sent his boy Kemo on his way.

Is next year the year we can reunite the Pouncey brothers? I think I'd rather have that than the Long brothers.
