[QUOTE="adam71, post: 1991800, member: 549079"] I agree with you to a point. The Steelers as an organization are one of the smartest in the league when it comes to handling players, especially the troblesome ones. You'll remember that he was arrested BEFORE they signed him. I'm sure they had a long talk and added clauses in his contract where his "off the field" problems will also affect his pay. Not to mention I'm sure his 2 arrests have already affected his pay and he probably got less money because of them. I can't say for sure how good he is going to be but if Bill Cowher and the Steelers can't keep him in line then it would be safe to say that not many others in the league can. Also, did you follow him much when he was at OSU?? He's not bad at all. He has alot of raw talent and if they develop that in Pittsburgh he could be more than a replacement for Randle El. [/QUOTE]
