As expected, the Steelers and Ben Rothlisberger redo his contract. Goes from 41 mil cap to 15 and added another four years that are voidable.

Perhaps I'm reading this incorrectly, but isn't his cap number going to be between $25 and $26 million, not $15 million?

"This is not a typical type of contract for the Steelers at all, but it allows them to save $15.34 million on the cap in 2021 instead of just $5 million"

Yep looks like i read it wrong. Will be between 25-26. Then in 2022 if he retires, his dead cap is 10 mil.

I guess that's better than it was before. Somebody screwed the pooch when extended his contract.

they must have thought he was gonna all of a sudden start training, eating and sleeping like Brady

[Leslie Grossman]

yep I still say it's not good enough for the Steelers, should dump him and trade up with a team like the Chargers

They pick 9th and can trade up if they want to. Mariota is available for trade or will be cut soon. There are options with Vets if they want to swing a trade but i hope they stick with Lock. I didnt care for him much either coming out. Denver has been awful drafting QBs.

I wish Elway didnt hire an actual GM. Love his drafting lol.

Like one poster said, Elway probably got extra horny this year to pick a qb 1st round after seeing JH success :smile:

Elway hired a guy to take his place as GM with player personel and to run the draft because he has been bad at it and now Elway is like President of football operations. Good move by him imo but i liked the way he drafted lol.
