Jerry Sullivan Still Not Impressed!

Lol. Figures that would be what it takes. But all in all, if the league is filling to pay for it, think of the injuries it may prevent. Maybe they should use it as a bargaining chip.

I think our weak link is going to be our linebackers. They really haven't looked so good in pass protection.

Ouch...yeah, I have a feeling that McGee is going to get cut.

How good Wilson is does not affect whether Graham was a reach or not. If he pans out as a starter, that makes Wilson a steal for the Seahawks. No one was expecting him to go so high, or to play as well as he's played. You have to look at each player for their own merits in relation to when they were picked. McKelvin is a disappointment for a first rounder, even though it looks like he's found a home as an entirely capable nickel corner. Now, I was one of the people who was not a fan of the pick, and it's still early but there's no denying that he can stretch the field and is learning his routes at least well enough to pull off that 64 yard grab. He's definitely not completely there yet, but none of our rookies are. I would not be surprised if he makes a play for #2 WR sometime this season.

I know I was one of the people who joined in the collective "WHO?!?" when we drafted him, but from how he's looked in training camp I think he has a shot to be our #2

They're coming in right now. Who, if anyone, would you try to grab?

Well, we really have to ask the question of "who do we have after Chandler"? Considering how thin we are on receiving options, and Fitz's generally preferred range being short having a TE would be a nice addition. But of course...RALPH IS CHEAP, FITZ CAN'T THROW, NO WAY WE'LL GET HIM!

I'll be completely honest with you: the exact same thing happened to me a few months ago. We kept it going for a year afterwards, but it sounds like we had the same problem: moving on out after school, going to different cities and barely seeing each other. It sucks. It completely sucks. But you tried, and if you loved her there was no way you were simply going to give up without doing that much.

Seventh round? I think that's entirely fair for a backup, and sixth is ok if we actually need to use him.

Just looked at the video. Ouch. I feel bad for him, especially now that it looks like it may be career ending. Again, I don't wish for injuries but man if that doesn't make me feel better about our chances against the Jets in two weeks.

Well, as much as the past decade has done its best to make me pessimistic, I'm still excited. I think it still deserves mentioning that the Steelers are a very good defensive team and our starters did a good job keeping it even. That said, I think our LB's and CB's still obviously need work and Fitz is still out of synch. 13 days to get it right...

Anyone think that we could have a shot at Welker in 2013?

I will not do the "asking karma for trouble" thing and say that I'm happy DeCastro is injured. I'm not. I don't wish injuries on players. (other than Tom Brady, who has clearly made some deal with the devil) What I will say, is that I'm excited to see a D-line that can shove a guy five yards back to take that injury. I'm excited to see how other offenses view that, and maybe make their O-lines piss themselves a little.

Apparently we're getting TJ cheaper than we expected. Though we now need initials that won't confuse people with our WR...

I'm honestly surprised. My only guess is that VY cost more money than Thigpen, and any team which is relying on their third-stringer is screwed.

I checked the Seattle boards, and they feel pretty happy with things. They would be happy with a 5th round pick, and they think that TJ, while a decent player, would be a lockerroom cancer with Flynn and their new rookie.

Jackson's play style fits with what we need far more than Tebow.

One fewer blocker for their O-line.

I like it. VY has clearly been mediocre. We didn't pay much for him, so I don't feel bad about ditching him. TJ looks...well, I would be furious if he was the starter. But I don't have a problem with him as backup yet. Let's see how he does in game 4.

Hey, all I know is that it makes the Dolphins even weaker this season. That's two wins I can be sure of

Let's remember. He got cut by the SEAHAWKS. How many elite receivers do you remember the Seahawks having?

No guys, let's be honest here. The headline will be all about the Giants. The Bills thrashing the Jets will be on page 5

You know, everything but our passing game seemed to be clicking in the first half. Never before have I wanted to scream "RUN THE F ING BALL!!!" quite so much. Well, at least until the regular season. Point is, Jackson is ready. The D-line is ready. The run defense is ready. Our passing coverage? Not ready. Our passing game? NOT READY! I've been a Fitz apologist, but his timing is clearly not there. He has two weeks to get into the realm of competency

I hope so, because barring Spiller's fumble the run game has looked very solid.
