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.

    • By all means keep talking. You think we have e a great team being held back by one player. I say we are being held back by more than one player. History will tell us who's right.
    • I don't think people are saying we're 1 player away from being a contender. I do though think it's a very legitimate statement to say, "we're 1 player away from this team looking like they're moving in the right direction and have a chance to get into contention in the next few years" As I don't think we're 1 player away from contention, not even close, still need holes to fill (or young players to get better in the coming years) on defense before we can ever enter that conversation. But if we had a legitimate QB who could be our long term solution, I think we'd be passing the eye test of a team on the rise, not looking like we do now, and that's of a middling team who is squeaking by wins against some of the worst teams in the league.
    • All I ask is to make the calls. If there's nothing available for the low price we should be willing to spend then it is what it is. But do the due diligence.
