Not only that, but they also eat 21.1 million in dead cap money for 2019!
He's the best wideout in football!
All that dead money, plus losing AB, you gotta wonder how demoralizing that will be to the locker room! Will Ben think about retiring?!
Like I keep saying, the Steelers are falling apart!
ESPN's trade grades:
Raiders: A-
Steelers: C-
It's a rough day in Steelers nation!
Ben hated AB. If anything this will rejuvenate him and keep him from retiring.
AB tore that locker room apart, believe that. Im sure he had his supporters, but I guarantee you there were more guys who wanted to kill him. You don't abandon you're guys like he did in week 17. By many reports, he was a problem inside the locker room all season.
Have they gone backwards with talent? No doubt. But they're also scrubbing the shit from the roster. Mitchell gone. Bell gone. Brown gone. Jerry Porter gone. They've got some rebuilding to do for sure, but they've still got a lot of talent on the offensive side of the ball. They've also won more with less talent than they had last season. Enjoy your victory lap, Im sure it will be short lived.
