Add the Bills to that list.Keebler wrote: Rams have already said they have no interest in Big Ben earlier today per Schefter's Twitter.
The rest of the top 10 has not definitively said no.

The more I think about the possibility that Cleveland is entertaining the thought, the more it makes me sick. No way do I want Ben. No way we give up #7 pick for him. I don't know if I would even sacrifice our 2nd for him. Yes, he'd be an immediate starter after the suspension but I just can't get over the fact that it's Big Ben.

No way the Steelers trade him to their rival.....no way.
If Sabo is right with his mock....Me and Rose would have a great date night.

Where have you heard that Cleveland is "entertaining the thought?" No way Pittsburgh does this deal within the division.Keebler wrote: The more I think about the possibility that Cleveland is entertaining the thought, the more it makes me sick. No way do I want Ben.

If this WERE to happen, the Steelers would make the Browns grab their ankles (in compensation) and they would drill the Browns SO bad that it would even make Ben blush.
That would be like the Hatfield's inviting the McCoy's over for dinner.

You would hope not but there has been no word that the Browns have said they weren't interested. That's what scares me. When they come out and say, "Sorry, not interested", I will relax. Until then, I fear the rapist has the possibility of being a Brown and that absolutely makes me want to vomit in my mouth.wes_mantooth wrote: No way the Steelers trade him to their rival.....no way.

Per Adam Schefter's Twitter: (I can't quote exact page because I'm at work)
First Tweet
Here are teams that Steelers have called about Roethlisberger: Rams, 49ers, Raiders, Bills, Jaguars, Seahawks and Browns.
Second Tweet
Here are the known no's on interest in Roethlisberger right now: Rams, Bills. Others might not be, just not known yet.
Until I hear a firm NO, I will still have the sicken thought in my head.

If they are going to the WCO, he wouldn't exactly be a fit.

Oakland and Buffalo are the two best fits, but I wouldn't want to give up HIGH picks for a guy that will miss almost half the season.
How long is Ben under contract?

Maybe you guys are right. There is apparently a station out of NY reporting there's a "blockbuster" in the works between the two teams. I can't believe it. Never happen.

On March 4, 2008, the Pittsburgh Steelers and Roethlisberger agreed to an eight-year, $102 million contract.[13] Roethlisberger had two years left on his original that he signed after the draft. He has stated that he wants to retire as a Steeler.[14]

I don't want him for several obvious reasons but I bet, whether he plays for the Steelers, Raiders, Redskins, etc that he keeps his nose clean the rest of his career. I still think he's a turd but I think he will stay clean.

^^^Yeah, this will probably be his wakeup call.
If he is signed for that many years....he is worth a top ten pick....I still doubt that they get that for him though.

I think he'll stay clean also from now on.
If they give up the #7 for him, I won't be happy at all. If they give up the 2nd, I really don't know what to think. I think the Steelers are going to put a big price tag on him though since he has 2 pieces of hardware.

Just saw where the Raiders have been in talks with them and it could be serious. Uncle Al is the only one I could see giving up a top 10 pick. The next 24+ hours should be interesting.

I honestly think that it would be a great move for Oakland. What has Al done with his high picks anyhow?...he just pisses them away.BR1986FB wrote: Just saw where the Raiders have been in talks with them and it could be serious.

Like his mock...would be considered a great draft if we got those 3. I really like Price, but I LOVE the guy they have going the pick before him...Toby Gerhart. I love his game and nastiness, think he'd be great fit with Cleveland. If they got Berry,Colt,and Gerhart...that'd be amazing.
