Really great signing. Can play inside or out.

Kahn going for GM of the year!

Nice Pick Cowah...

Seriously, is it just me or does this team seem to be trying to set itself up for a playoff run?

I love how we traded Green to the Texans, then pick up a former all-pro they let go. Some very deft maneuvering by the Steelers brass to get to the final 53.

Here's a good link from a reporter that covers the Texans explaining what the Steelers are getting.

Khan has been waiting his whole life for this moment. Definitely looks like he is trying to win a SB this year!!!

Of course not, just asked the trolls on the board

Rooneys don?t care
Fans don?t care?just yinzers

Great acquisition Khanman. If I ever run into him, I'm going blow him. Just kidding. Seriously this team is going to have an amazing season. I can feel it. Well done Khan!

Nice find. Thanks for posting. Great pickup!!

So the Texans cut him basically because he was “too old”at 28. Wow. Started 25 games the last 2 years with 5 ints.

Yep. They have some good young players they like, and they figured they'd drop the higher salary player and veteran. They probably want to get a higher draft position next year as well.

He has position flexibility, and he fits what the Steelers need here. This isn't like signing a 33 year old and trying to squeeze whatever is left out of him. This is a player that should still have some meat on the tread.

It takes all kinds to make Steeler Nation I guess.
