It just got to the point of us just trying to get a deal done to get me back here. The bottom line is we had four or five different teams on the table, but when it came down to it, being a Steeler was better than the other deals that I had. Again, the comfort level, having some history here - good history if you will...Just going to a team that you're new to and just not be as welcomed as I would be here.

Randle el

Ur awesome and I wish u never left

Not sure where or how he'll fit in

But I am really happy he is a Steeler again. He was one of my favorites and, though I was happy he got paid, I was really bummed when he left.

He says they talked about him being #3

Ward
Holmes
ARE
Wallace

Can that make sense, and keep Wallace in opportunities? Or they make him compete as well. But if somebody goes down, its covered.

It's a great situation

But I just worry about them not taking advantage of Wallace. He was the most exciting thing to happen to the Steelers last year, and now he’s bumped back to #4.

What I like the best about Randle El is his versatility – he can return punts, rush a few times around the edge, even throw a couple of completions. Hopefully his slowdown the last couple of years with the Redskins can be reversed.

Just thinking

Is there a dime corner out there who can cover Wallace or El playing out of a four receiver set?

Consider it unleashed!

Arians has the weapons for his system, all the deep and mid range threats you could want.

What a great chance for Arians to show his system is superior, or lose his job.

He apparently

still has a lot of input into who we sign as well.

Why do you say that?

by Phantaskippy on Mar 9, 2010 7:42 PM EST up reply actions  

I said four

… Not five receivers, and I did not talk about using it on third and one, so no, I’m not Brucey!

Consider it unleashed!

new BA-set

QB, center, TE, TE, TE, TE, WR, WR, WR, WR, WR.

REVOLUTIONARY!!!!

correction

there will be no center. We will have a Left Tackle because we have the best in the world.

Right Tackle

The only managing Ben does is he manages to WIN games
