    My thoughts, exactly.

        Not hurt at all by this.
        Not sure where WEDDLE fit on this team since all we'd have going into the season are Free Safeties. We really need a SS

            We absolutely need a FS. We're paying Mike Mitchell, a natural SS, a grip, to play out of position. He's a SS miscast playing FS. Put a true ballhawk back there with him, let MM play from the box and watch the defense look 1,000x better.

            But, I completely agree that I don't think Weddle would've been the answer at this point in his career.

                    He has enough money for private school and DC is right down the road...

                    Maybe he likes crab cakes over those awful Primanti sammiches

                            Not sure MITCHELL is a SS. I don't see him matched up against TE's in this league.

                                He isn't a Steelers so why would any of us give a rats a$$ about him. He is with a rival the worst luck he has the better

                                    Mitchell is a SS...he's better off closer to the LoS and man covering TEs than he is trying to play center field and taking good pursuit angles on receivers in the open field...

                                        If that's the case I would think he'd move to SS and Golden would start at FS

                                            Possible, if we don't upgrade Golden...

                                                        Or maybe he's just not a fan of cole slaw. A Primanti's just opened near me recently, and my belts are worried they might soon need to be replaced.
                                                        Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

                                                        Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

                                                        We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

                                                        We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.
