They should at least be on track for some comp picks unless they decide to go crazy in FA. Moore is definitely getting a big contract. Daniels before the injury would have received a boatload but still should get a decent sized contract. I think some team gives Harris a nice deal. If a team likes Fields he’ll get paid too.

Feels like the first time in a while that they will get a decent comp pick. But even if they do, the picks will not be til the 2026 draft.

Yeah and I think that’ll be the perfect time to have a couple extra picks. A big splash at the draft in Pittsburgh in what’s hopefully a better QB class than this one would be a cool story.

Guess what- you can be good at your job but also be a shitty teammate. Those aren't mutually exclusive behaviors.

You can also resent your manager and your teammate bc the manager applies different rules to different players.

To say it "didn't affect anything" presumes you know their feelings.
I don't pretend to know any Steelers' feelings, but I know that era of Steelers were a bunch of me 1st dudes who didn't win shit and were very
They won a lot. In their overlap they made the playoffs in

14 and lost tk the ravens (bell didnt play).
15 they lost to denver in the second round with both bell and brown out and Ben with a hurt shoulder.
16 they made the conference championship game.
17 was the jaguars defensive debacle the year shazier was paralyzed.

Saying they didnt win shit while blaming bells and browns personality is some wild ass revisionist history.

If you want to blame 2018 on this (bells holdout and browns “departure”) ill listen but most of that teams issues were on defense (shazier etc)

Wasnt that after he didnt return from his hold out and was essentially already off the roster?

Forget the timing. That's as much disrespect and disdain you could have for a teammate. It's like pissing on someone's grave.

We just have different expectations. They did win a bunch of games in the RS. Yippee I guess.

Considering the talent on that roster, to me they didn't win shit.
But when the new "standard" is being content with making the playoffs, I can see how/why fans have been conditioned to deem those years as successful.
