    Signing Townsend makes sense to me if it's on the cheap. I don't believe him to be solid starting material any longer but he is a reasonable insurance policy. I think he would provide less of a knee jerk reaction in the draft.

    Of course Timmons will start.

    Franchising Hampton makes the most sense. But, it doesn't change our need to draft a NT. But, we could wait for a guy like Troup in the third.

    Then our draft could be something like Thomas, best Db available, then Troup.
    Trolls are people too.

      Bringing back Deshea for a deal near the vet minimum makes a lot of sense. If nothing else, he mentors the young cbs in training camp if he doesn't make the team.

          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.
