Aiyuk to the Steelers?
Seems to be a lot of buzz around the Steelers finalizing a trade for Aiyuk.

Let's not pretend Pittsburgh is some historically shit organization. He's going to a well-run franchise and getting paid to do it. While his team quality is taking a major step down for 2024, who knows what lies ahead. Not sure how this move for him equates to flushing his career down the toilet. |

Wait till he figures out the extra $$$ won't make his QB better. Like Davante. ANd after a couple of seasons of mediocre production, and people start forgetting about him, when no one thinks of him as a top 15 WR, I'll bet the $$$ won't be as good to him then. |

Honestly, wish Higgins had the balls to do this to the Bengals. They tagged him with zero intention of extending him. He's a one year rental, and he should treat them accordingly.

His QB is going to be either Russell Wilson or Justin Fields. Basically, two of the worst starting QBs in the league, and neither may actually be a starting-caliber QB at this time. |

Also SF isn't going to remain a powerhouse team forever, they are at the end of their run. |

Good Grief, this perception that the Steelers are a bunch of hapless scrubs is baffling to me.
They've been in consistent contention for the playoffs even with bottom 5 QB play and an absolutely abysmal OC. They've significantly upgraded at both positions this off-season (far more of an indictment on how rotten Pickett and Canada were to be fair) |

I'm not 100% sure on this because I know nothing of Aiyuks background but Higgins didn't exactly have the best upbringing so he probably just views it as he needs the money, he also just had a down year.

The fact that he agreed to go to Pit would mean to me that he's about to sign a pretty massive deal, which was his #1 priority |

Unfortunately they got a guy we both liked in Jermaine Burton and he looks good. I think he will be a good player for them

As awful as Arthur Smith was in Atlanta, he was actually a pretty damn good OC for the Titans. 4th in scoring and 2nd in yards. Tannehill had by far the best years of his career under him.

Well that was before his fantasy football terrorist days where he seemed to enjoy pissing off reporters more than winning games.

Front office ****ed him pretty badly by completely failing to address QB
Matt Ryan Marcus Mariota Desmond Ridder Taylor Heinecke Fields and Wilson both are better than that grab bag of C Dif Shit |

"Surely"? I don't know. They've struck out on QBs since Ben retired. And it's not like it's a given that they'll find a franchise QB any time soon. And next season's crop of college QBs aren't being hailed at all from what I've read. I mean, it Took KC what, 50 years? |
