I would rather see ike as a nickle and dime CB this year teaching a new, young vet the ropes to play along side Allen. This also lets us go after a monster reciever in rd 1, I think the steelers want a playmaker with that pick, it could be a CB in rd 1 if we do not get a CB free agent.Lancenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15287012.post-39731452089615376582014-03-11T09:08:41.958-04:002014-03-11T09:08:41.958-04:00with steelers signing ike to 1 year deal, unlikely...with steelers signing ike to 1 year deal, unlikely they bring in FA cornerback, right?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15287012.post-67658597645404591882014-03-10T22:28:36.817-04:002014-03-10T22:28:36.817-04:00Right, Woodley was released, so the Steelers will ...Right, Woodley was released, so the Steelers will get nothing in return if he is signed elsewhere.Dale Lolleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13089003781188560287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15287012.post-82805254323791209682014-03-10T22:02:10.297-04:002014-03-10T22:02:10.297-04:00Woolley was cut...he is not leaving as a FA.

Sometimes the two go together.<br /><br />Woodley will get a chance with a new club and hopefully he can stay healthy. He still has some good football in him and I hope he does well. I wish him a huge contract and a fantastic season next year, because I also hope we get a third round compensatory pick out of him. <br /><br />I understand now why Keenan Lewis was allowed to leave. He didn't want to stay and they let him go. Simple as that. <br /><br />He came with his best friend Mike Wallace and he left with him too.<br /><br />The players interest to leave overwhelmed the club's interest in keeping him. It is better to build good will with the remaining players than to keep a player around who will be unhappy about staying.<br /><br />It is also better to release Woodley now than wait until June. It is good for his sake and builds good will with the other players.<br /><br />Nice gestures are why the Steelers are the class of the NFL and why many players are glad to play for them.<br /><br />And why they keep winning. <br /><br />They get the good will back in return from players wanting to play for them, sometimes at a discount. <br /><br />Mr. Rogers might have been a nice guy and a great friend to children, but he never went hungry either and built up a nice business for himself. The Rooney's are no dummies. They have used kindness as the currency to build a fantastic business.<br /><br />Mrs. Isaac RedmanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
