    Who is Ivy???
    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.

          Okay...gotcha. Three letters, starting with "I" and there was a "V" involved. I probably could have decided that if I thought about it for a second.

            The contract structure hasn't been released yet, but if his SB is, say, $5M, the team could structure it with a base salary of $1.5M in year 1 and $5.5M in year 2. That way, Barron pockets $6.5M in the first year, but he'd only count $4M against our 2019 cap. The second year would essentially be an option year. If he fits into our defensive scheme, then keep him for 2020 at an $8M cap hit or perhaps even extend him beyond that. If he's not a fit, we could cut him to save $5.5M against next year's cap with only $2.5M in dead money in 2020.

              New Steeler Mark Barron considers himself an every down inside linebacker, doesn't expect to come off the field.
