Breaking down my thoughts on the Steelers potential extension candidates in Cam Heyward, Pat Freiermuth, James Daniels and Najee Harris. #Steelers #PittsburghSteelers, #Pittsburgh
Your content just keeps getting better, appreciate what you do for us big time! This season can’t come soon enough, same with that Aiyuk trade 👀 Brandon to the Burgh as well as a Najee and Daniels resigning
I'll say Warren is the next one to get extended. He seems most likely to take a medium contract that would entice the Steelers enough to risk future dollars.
26:46 really enjoyed the perspectives of this show. What are the numbers/ratifications of the team & Daniels if the franchise tag is put on him? The franchise tag is harder for me to grasp the values of by the parties. Thanks
Part of me says Muth will get a deal since the TE is a cheap and the deal won’t break there pockets.. I just feel like not signing certain players ahead of time puts the time in a bind then help it… we should’ve at least had talks with James Daniels than just say we’re not gonna have discussions… cam deal should be short an low and Najee should be cheap
@@Steelers_DBhe was just on Steelers Afternoon Drive with Alan Saunders and Zachary Smith. He said he’d joined the team so I was just checking you were still part of the team as well because I really enjoy your work.
I think they need to extend James Daniels. He’s a great guard and they need experienced, vet presence in that Oline room along with Seumalo. The offensive side of the ball is very young and needs balance.
@@Steelers_DB I do too but the problem is whose contract can you use as a model for his just in case this goes left… I understand cam wants one more deal but if we want to win a Super Bowl and possibly make future additions via mid season trades or off season acquisitions then cam has to take less so that we can take at least 1 swing at going to the Super Bowl…
@@Steelers_DB right and I mean granted players at his position can play even in there older age but the problem is you don’t wanna give him all this money and then he regresses.. as long as the years are reasonable and the average per year is decent cool.. but if not then option B
Dejan Kovacevic continues to report that steelers plan to extend Najee and cam. Said it again last week. Also Dave Bryan from Steelers depot just wrote a nice article on possible reasons why Steelers declined his 5th yr option but may still sign him to extension
@@jamy8575 I do think that was original plan tbh. Regardless, I will be interested to see what happens by end of summer with all of our possible extensions
I don't think you can view the 5th year option decision as simply being if Harris is worth 7 mil next year for several reasons. They just cleaned house on offense and most of it was unrelated to physical ability. That doesn't mean Nagee is a bad person. It just means the Steelers value 7m in free cap space next year more than they value the good deal his his contract would represent. I think anyone who looks at next year's contract decisions would agree.
@@nachlinodena486 ahh got ya. I should mention that Pollard was coming off a serious injury. But yeah I mean I think if Harris does walk, the play will be to draft a back on day two to pair with him.
