That's what I read. Hopefully, that's how it works, as keeping Wallace is kinda important for the team's success in the near future.Gblock;1101682 wrote:colbert said the other day we should be able to re-sign mike wallace due to restructuring of several deals including ben and woodley
They plan to Tender him, problem is the cap room is the current offerHeretic;1101937 wrote:That's what I read. Hopefully, that's how it works, as keeping Wallace is kinda important for the team's success in the near future.
honestly a lot of teams(including us at times when it comes to paying vets) would have let him go without paying him what we did on his last contractpnhasbeen;1102435 wrote:Talking to my friends that are Steelers' fans, they all seem to be saying "hate to see our old favorites go, but the new crop is here." It makes sense.
Pisses me off, but the Steelers are great at making players lifers.
Agreed. In all reality, Hines mentoring Wallace, Sanders, and Brown probably got him moved off the team.Gblock;1102436 wrote:honestly a lot of teams would have let him go without paying him what we did on his last contract

Thats the difference between the greatest pro sports franchise and your team . Hines will always be a Steeler . We love him and if you read his comments he loves the Steelers organisation . We are a team and teammates help eachother out . If he were a selfish self centered person like yourself he may have been gone last year . Hines can fit in somewhere as a 3rd wideout . He is fearless over the middle and can teach younger wideouts work ethic and better ways to be a teammate. He helped our guys because its in his DNA . Its refreshing for a wideout to be so selfless. You rip him ,but youd be lucky to have him mentoring your guys . We will miss him and I wish he would still be with us because he is far to good a football player to go to 99% of the teams .St Louis should try to pick him up as they are young and have a young QB.pnhasbeen;1102451 wrote:Agreed.

I played HS and college ball and I forgot more football then you will ever know . Its real easy to call people names on the net isnt it . Instead of just argueing you want to revert to the 3rd grade level as usual .Ill try not to stoop to your level again and say Hines is still better than most Wideouts in the league . The Steelers are just loaded up now and he is at the end of his career . We let 4 mil a year go and now we are under the salary cap . Hines only lost his starting job last year and only because we have some studs at the position ... Why cant you understand that he would be a very nice assett to a young QB . There is more to being a wide out then the 40 yd dash . I cant remember a guy so fearless to go over the middle then him . What reciever blocks better than him downfield ? I know he isnt as good as he was but he still is NFL worthy and a team will pick him up . Try making an argument on your position next time instead of insulting me . Stick with the facts or the issue at hand.pnhasbeen;1102765 wrote:actually, you're an idiot. I didn't imply that at all.
Oh and he is a washed up has been. Used to be good. Isn't anymore.
you called me selfish and self-centered. that isn't 3rd grade, but that is 4th grade insults.Thinthickbigred;1102841 wrote:I played HS and college ball and I forgot more football then you will ever know .
