Winning at the bank, sure. His reputation sure has taken a hit these last 2 years.

The Steelers win some with putatively BAD QBs. I think they made a decent move here, because it costs them so little to have a guy who is decent and experienced.

Re: Around the NFL - FA tampering/start
 

I'd like to see the Commanders "fix" some position groups for the next five or more years via FA by signing good young players. For starters I would like to spend big on two players who can anchor our defense and offense, respectively. I'm looking at Patrick Queen (24) at LB and Mike Onwenu (26) at RT. We'll need some less expensive players in FA, as well. I like Dorance Armstrong (26) at Edge and Andrew Van Ginkel at LB/Edge. These moves could get us most of the way at LB and Edge and lock down the right side of our OL.

In addition, we could add some quality older vets on one or two year deals at positions of immediate need such as LT, C, LG, or CB. This would also move us closer to being able to implement a BPA draft strategy or to move up in the draft to grab another young starter.

I'm sure he'll be in Andrew Brandt's Business of Football Hall of Fame list, along with Kirk Cousins.

The crazy shit of he had his own office in Denver was absurd. Just amazingly dumb shit by the Broncos.

Experienced, yes. But I'm convinced he is jaded and over the hill. I don't think he will be a positive influence in the locker room, either. I think the Steelers are about to make another cheap and ineffective move at QB.

Little surprised RB was the first couple signings of the FA period.

Seems like McNabb 2.0

This is great News! Armstrong should have been a starter in Dallas. He's young (26), very talented, and I believe he'll be a star here.

I think he will be pretty decent in Pittsburgh. Everyone is ripping on him, but he did throw for a decent amount of yards considering he was not playing the last few games, completed 67% of his passes with 26TB to 9 picks . . . that is far better than what Pittsburgh got out of their QB last year and they won 10 games. I think this is a very good fit, especially with the fact that it will only cost them a $1.2 million cap charge.

You're thinking like a Steelers executive already (see bolded).

He can still play and he's better than what they've got, but the red flags are there with two teams now pushing him out of town

Re: Around the NFL - FA tampering/start
 

This is a bit of a stunner. Don't they have a good RB already?
