Holy crap that's alot of $$$! Glad he's locked up though, hopefully we can fix our offensive line so we don't get Big Ben killed.


I'm not sure if he is worth 102 million!!! They should have kept Faneca if they can pay Big Ben that kind of money.

And to think I almost got take-out from them yesterday. Can't wait till his ass leaves the neighboorhood for good

ESPN - Steelers receiver arrested after allegedly punching ex-girlfriend in the face - NFL

PITTSBURGH -- Pittsburgh Steelers receiver Cedrick Wilson has been charged with assaulting his estranged girlfriend at a suburban restaurant Wednesday night.


A police criminal complaint said Wilson, 29, entered Patron Mexican Grill in Pine Township shortly before 8 p.m. and saw Lindsey Paulat sitting at the bar. Authorities allege that he pushed her on the shoulder and then punched her in the face.

In January, Wilson and Paulat were involved in a fight at Wilson's home that ended with her holding police at bay for several hours.
Authorities say Wilson was in the Allegheny County Jail on Wednesday night awaiting arraignment on charges of simple assault, harassment and disorderly conduct.
A message left with the answering service of Wilson's attorney, Paul Goltz, was not immediately returned Wednesday night.

Interesting signing, provides Depth on the D-line assuming he makes it out of camp. Coming off of knee surgery I assume its for around the vet. minimum.

We badly need to address both lines. Hartwig was a decent signing if he can stay healthy. He's at least an upgrade over Mahan. I agree with you about Booger.

Yeah, I can see them going O-line and D-line with 2 of top 3 picks. Hartwig HAS to be an improvement over Mahan, cause he absolutely sucked balls last year.

Getting Mendenhall at 23, while not a huge need, was a nice value. Hines isn't getting any younger and Ben got his big receiver in Sweed. Gotta address the O-line though at some point. New weapons or not when you lose Faneca and add Justin Hartwig to an already porous line it's not a comforting thought.

Two GEAT value picks that solidify the young core of skill players we have on offense. Gotta be excited about Ben, Parker, Mendenhall, Santonio and Sweed all being so young. The TE's are a very good group and you still have Heinz.

That said if we don't get some help on the OL from here on out its going to be a long year.

I don't like the Squealers but I think they made two good pics. The only problem with taking the RB from Illinois is that he is very similar to Parker but at that time was probably the best running back on the board so it was good value. Sweed should be a good wideout in the NFL with his speed and size. They probably will get some OL in the later rounds. They always seem to do some how.
