Report: Pryor meets again with Steelers
Posted: Sunday, August 21, 2011
By Mike Bires [email protected]

On Saturday, 17 NFL teams watched Terrelle Pryor work out. Among them were the Steelers. On Sunday, the former Ohio State star was seen walking into Steelers' headquarters.

Might that mean the Steelers are interested in picking Pryor today when the NFL holds its supplemental draft?

It's unclear if the Steelers have any intentions of gambling on Pryor, who has yet to convince scouts he can play quarterback in the NFL. After practice Sunday, coach Mike Tomlin didn't speak to the media.

Tomlin attended the latter portion of Pryor's pro day at Hempfield High School on Saturday. Kevin Colbert, the Steelers' director of football operations, was there, too. In fact, it was the Steelers who filmed the workout on behalf of all NFL teams interested in drafting Pryor.

I still am irked by some of the immature decisions that Pryor made at OSU. All of this aside, I feel that he has suffered a pretty large punishment and has been humbled a great deal. I am hoping that he has turned the corner on what have sometimes been irrational decisions and goes on to have success in the NFL. I don't hold grudges because no one is perfect, I sure as hell am not...and neither is TP. Best of luck TP.

I've read that it's at 1 pm ET - I'm sure that this thread will be updated within minutes of Pryor's selection being announced.

Pretty big punishment indeed. An unprecedented one. He's going to lose five NFL paychecks before he's even officially a part of the NFL.

I think the suspension is total bullshit and I'm not a big Pryor fan.

I wonder what kind of a contract these guys in this draft can get. I would assume it would probably be the league minimum, but somebody with the potential of a TP may garner a little more cash.

I don't know, he doesn't have any leverage at all. I figure he'll get league minimum.
