If the Steelers get Lewis back for a mid-late round pick I really like this move. Lewis - Gay - Allen - Blake gives you a legit group of corners. With corner no longer a screaming need, the Steelers could focus on the BPA in the draft. They'd need a pass rusher but would have the luxury of taking BPA in the early rounds and would not have to reach for a corner.

it's a fake twitter account, disregard it...

Bucs release Michael Johnson a year after signing him to a mega deal

I've heard that the Bengals are likely to go after him.

Bummer. Just saw that after I posted.

Trade talk on fake Twitter but Interest in Robinson is real. Dolphins were one of 5 teams in running.

Andre Johnson signs with the Colts 3 years 21 million.

Seems like a significant overpay for a guy who is no longer the absolute force that he used to be. Lot of money to spite a division rival.

I dont think so, I dont think he is done. Over 900 yards with the disaster they had at QB last year was a miracle. In the colts case all their skill position players are the same age or younger than Luck. Aside from a pro bowl berth, Luck is the best QB Andre has ever had....i think he will be very effective in that offense even if its more of a possession role.

That defense and oline though....they need to fix it, not just patch it.

colts are definitely making a push

will be interesting to see how it works out

Not saying that he is done, but I don't think he is elite anymore, either. He's going to be 34. Great compliment for Hilton, but I don't think that he's a #1 WR anymore.

[K Train]

Oh hes not...he had a great career as a top 5 WR, but now he and Fitz are former elites that can be a key role player for some contending team.

Hilton is Antonio Brown-Lite, and now they have Moncrief to stretch the field and imo Andre is an upgrade to Wayne and Nicks

For those of you in the Jabaal Sheard camp...he is a Pat now. 2 years, $11M.

Akeem Ayres will probably be available then...

I think he was at UCLA along with Carnell Lake...

[Rara]

I'm shocked that Ayers hasn't be signed or mentioned yet via free agency? What's the deal? Its now starting to shape up that the Steelers will probably go line backer first round, to be honest.

IF the Steelers sign Patrick Robinson..I sure hope they won't settle on just him and wait until the 5th or 6th to get a corner. I'd like to see them go corner in the 2nd if they go line backer in the first.
