Should the Steelers break the bank for Nnamdi? NO!

Provided we can re-sign Ike, there's no reason to. Kerry Byrne certainly does not think so, based on Defensive Passer Rating, where the Steelers finished no. 2 last year.

of all the reasons to argue against signing nnamdi

saying that our secondary is already good enough without him is about as ridiculous as they come.

I go back and forth on the issue

I think, if we had a better nickle DB, our secondary would be good enough to win a SB.

bmac is still a fairly big liability

when not healthy especially (ie.most of the time)

when healthy

I think he fits our system just fine. He’ll never be a shut down corner in man to man and we shouldn’t need him to be.

The Steelers were never going to sign him anyway

It’s not the Steelers way to throw out big money to UFAs unless they are trying to resign their own.
