Around SBN: 2011 In Extreme Home Runs

Larry Foote


While I have no problem with bringing Foote back, I am stunned by what they paid him. We are paying him more than he would have made if we kept him last year. He is 30, and likely a backup. I know he helps if OLB gets hurt, but how much better is he than Fox?  Is the FO concerned that Farrior may be past it, and Foote slides in, Timmons moves over?  I hope we have the money left to extend holmes, Woodley, Colon, etc.

Maybe the Steelers have more money than I think they do.

I've learned to just trust the FO on this kinda stuff...

they usually do a great job. I would think that after the draft they’re gonna work on holmes and woodleys extensions. colon might just have to wait.

I guess I could be "that guy"

also, by saying that I didn’t get through all the replies on the prior posts due to the “superfluous” aka extra chit chat on the posts. 100 comments, but many just not that interesting- and not topic related.
But, I am not “that guy” so no complaints from me- have at it guys. This is not “my” site.

Fari enough

but, having gone back through the 2 entries on the main page, the majority of the comments are related to Foote or Ben. Not saying that they are very interesting but, I digress.

You know, I'm guessing this could be done
