Steelers Expected to Cut Mike Mitchell

We've got nothing back there

It's true, but considering how things played out with our secondary last year, it's hard to envision not being to get better even with cutting Coleman & trading Worley.  We were near the top in sacks & QB pressures last year, and our secondary still got exposed badly.

But yeah I'm more worried about our secondary than even our WR corp.  Cam has made hay with some mediocre groups before, but our secondary kept us from being a true SB contender IMHO more than anything else

Lets just resign all the former players.

It didn't work out so bad last year lol... seriously though I think Mitchell would be an asset given our huge hole at safety and in the secondary in general right now

I'm personally against it. Rather we go Round 1 Safety than sign him again.

He's being released because he honestly kind of sucks now. 

We badly need depth at safety anyways. I agree with this very good S group in the draft we better come away with at least 1 in the first 3 rounds (I hope we get 2) but that doesn’t keep us from adding veteran depth too.

As a vet min signing I'm fine with it, but Mitchell has made too many boneheaded plays for the steelers since he left us that the fans are all too happy to get rid of him. He's constantly flagged for doing dumb stuff, runs his mouth too much and can't back it up. 

At least Norman backed his mouth up with his play. I'd much rather have his attitude back there than Mitchell.

    • I don't agree with this, he looks jacked to me.  His frame won't allow him to ever be as big as XL, and that's fine.  He will just have a hard time with press, there are ways to deal with that.  
    • that type of QB, especially paired with a weaker NFL arm.....excel with quick game weapons though.   it sounds like you are a big Tmac homer.  I mean, if you are watching every snap he played in college.   So, it's safe to say we likely won't see eye to eye on expectations for year 1.   And my expectations on Tmac aren't all in his control.  As I have also said, elsewhere, this is really year 2 for Bryce.  So I expect the first half of the season to carry healthy odds of a year 2 regression (specifically the first half).  Film, tendencies, and weaknesses in Dave's offense are going to be prepared for.    out of curiosity, what cons to Tmac's game where in the scouting stuff you saw?  
    • Maybe a weeeee bit exaggerating. I think he will be a great player. But that doesn’t look like someone that was super committed in the weight room during college which is just a little confusing. Maybe he cut some weight to try and run a better 40. We saw Julio come into the league a little skinnier, get bigger/stronger and really start dominating. Strength and size is important as a big physical x receiver. It’s not so important for the Devonta Smith role
