On the Steelers: Expect a defensive upheaval Farrior, Hampton candidates to go

To be honest, Wallace is replaceable. We have other issues that are more pressing.

I'd rather sign Jerricho C and get a 1st rd pick for wallace.

I'd be down with that. But we'd have to find another gem in the 3rd round as a WR again. I'm not sold with Brown and Sanders being the #1 and #2 receivers on the team. Sanders seems like more of a speedy possession receiver than anything and with Cotchery we'd have 3 of those.

the problem with Wallace......although it would be nice for him to be signed......is that its going to take backing 5 Brinks trucks up to the building. He (and his agent, of course...), are going to ask for the moon (and maybe a couple stars to go with too)

[Fire Arians]

with the amount we're over the cap, wallace not returning is a possibility. at least if tendered at first round it's not a backbreaking blow to the team. if wallace doesn't return, re-signing cotch is almost a must

If we end up drafting Burfict or Hightower, they'll have to rot on the bench for at least half the season learning LeBeau's D. So I think we'll see Farrior again. Probably not Foote.

Damn, Farrior has got to go. He looked terrible most of the year. I respect what he had done for years as a leader on the D but you can't beat Father Time.

Did you see Ray Ray Lewis on Sunday? He is useless now, except as an emotional leader on the team. Can't run no more. You wan't some rah-rah? Put on a skirt and grab some pom-poms.

We need some tacklers who can cover AND run.

I will admit Foote ain't a HOF but he is cheaper and honestly plays a little better than Farrior.

What ever happened to the Steelers FO that had no problem letting guys go in the past?

I am still pissed about Faneca leaving.
