    Leigh Bodden ranked 5th in the league allowing only 50% of completions under his coverage. Meanwhile, Ike Taylor ranked 30th, allowing 58.2% completions (right below Bryant McFadden allowing 57.8% completions).

    Keep in mind these stats don't tell you what kind of WRs they were covering.
    Or the cushion they were allowing at the snap of the ball.

      Agreed 100%, but what they have done is bolstered the depth chart and put people on the team that can play while a draft class matures and improves. As you know the Steelers don't like to start rookies unless absolutely necessary. These signings add depth and provide enough starting help while rookies learn and prove themselves.

        today was a good day for the Pittsburgh Steelers and Steeler Nation!

        two safeties, two WRs and an OT/OG were added today and special teams improved at the same time...

          Well, Chadman said that the Steelers wouldn't be big players in FA.

          said Clark was gone after Allen signed.

          Said ARE wouldn't be brought in, weeks ago.

          Wrong on all accounts.

          Chadman doubts the Steelers will sign Bodden.

          Expect his signing tomorrow.
          The people that are trying to make the world worse never take a day off, why should I?

          Light up the darkness.
