While we are at it.. Mike Mitchell?

There is speculation from various sources that Mike Mitchell could be on his way out of Pittsburgh.

He would certainly not have a big price tag.

Would you take him over Coleman? 

Bringing back Norman and Mitchell would give our defense a huge boost of nasty.

Steelers save 6.5 million by cutting him...yeah he gone.

Would like to bring him back, and the price wouldn't be high...but how much does he have left?  A legit question because outside of his (sometimes dirty) hits, not sure how much of an upgrade he would be over (hopefully) a draft pick.

 

 

Side note, we signed Mitchell for 1 year, 1 million dollars back in 13. I miss contracts like that.

Mitchell should come relatively cheap and he's six years younger than Mike Adams. Yeah, another stopgap. But probably a better stopgap than we currently have.

I agree.. I can't stand the hypocrite clown .. Who had no problem with one person bargain shopping vets but does now...

Yes. Absolutely.

He's not only an upgrade over our current safeties, but he'd bring some swagger back to our secondary as well.

Have you seen him play the last two years? Dude is slow and takes bad angles. He does draw good unsportsmanlike penalties though.

    • I would heavily push back on the notion of Tomlin and Cowher inheriting "collapsed teams." From 1980 to 1991(prior to Cowher and after their Super Bowl victories) the Steelers experienced just 4 sub .500 seasons. In fact the winning percentage for those years was 0.505. At most that was relatively mediocre, something fairly akin to the pre-Tepper Panthers. From Cowher through Tomlin(1992 to Present) it has been the NFL's best franchise. 22 playoff appearances, 4 Super Bowl Appearances, 2 Titles, 15 times winning the division. In fact they have only experienced 3 sub .500 records in that 34 season span.  That isn't ever a scenario where rebuilding happens. It's constant and consistent retooling so that your franchise floor is always high. It's smart business decisions, exceptional drafting and quality personnel moves that create a situation where that floor STAYS high.  It was precisely BECAUSE we opted to go through a complete teardown and "rebuild" without any of that competence being in the organization at all that led us to where we are currently. A situation that will more than likely continue for well over a decade longer.  Long term successful franchises do not "rebuild." They are in a constant state of competent flux that sustains them through some leaner periods without ripping the foundation completely out that led to that success in the first place. 
    • Houston's OL sucks but Stroud has also definitely regressed. Similar story to Jayden Daniels in Washington. Both guys looked like future MVPs as rookies but sustaining success in the NFL at QB is hard. The more tape there is on you for opposing DCs to study the harder it gets.
    • So I was curious and remember seeing a tweet but here are Young’s numbers vs Strouds number since that time  Stroud since week 3 2025. Bryce since coming back off the bench and playing in Denver
