    Yes Flip...That's a solid season if this injury isn't bad & given what Brown's numbers will end up ahead of him. I would like to see him stick around but I think $$$$ will be laid in front of him because of this season. I don't think the Steelers will be willing to show him more than 4 mil avg & he will get allot more than that somewhere else.

      The numbers are not terrible, but beyond the numbers, Sanders offers no real deep threat at all. How many times has Ben tried to hit Sanders down the sideline when he has man coverage? Seemingly, at least once per game, despite Sanders never winning the battle.

        Sanders has missed on a couple opportunities this season - no doubt. But he's still got some talent that I wouldn't throw away if we could keep him for the right price. He's also a pretty good blocker, so if we can ever get our running game working, I think that has some added benefit.

          At this point in time i believe Cotchery is more valuable to the Steelers than Sanders.
