Mike Wallace?

Not even in "Steeler Fantasy Land" is Mike Wallace worth a fourth overall draft pick...
Keep dreaming... and kill this thread... oops, I just kicked a dead horse... dammit!

Where is anyone in "Steeler Nation" suggesting he is numb nuts? I'd give him up in a heart beat for the 4th overall pick. The Steelers could then trade down a bit and draft Decastro and another WR with the trade down picks and or trade back up. It's not going to happen but I also didn't start this thread.

Awww... are you jealous about the picks the Browns have?
That's refreshing! -

That's refreshing! Jealous? You realize you had to lose a lot of games to have that draft pick right? I'd be pretty damn pissed if we ever draft that high anytime soon. What I did say is I'd gladly give up Mike Wallace for 4th overall if that were on the table. I love Mike Wallace but a good team can do a lot with the 4th overall draft selection. A trade down for example that would garner a lower first and possibly a 2nd or more. I'm not sure on the actual draft pick calculations.
Jealous? absolutely not.

...I won't be too hard on you, but you do realize that the Steelers days are numbered. I give it two more years for the fall to be complete. You'll soon be picking inside the top ten and the Browns will be picking low 30s...
...and it's gonna be satisfying...

I would much rather have Wallace then use the 4 on Blackmon. Thats just me though. Why gamble on Blackmon being a good pro when we can just trade for Wallace who we know is a stud. I would much rather somehow work a deal out with the Steelers where they would get the 22 instead or even better a second rounder, but the reality is I don't think they would trade him in the division unless they were getting something crazy ... like the 4.
-
Looks like Rapelisberger restructured his contract to saved them another 8 million so I doubt Wallace is going anywhere.
-
why? that gets them back to even with the cap. just to tender wallace is 2.7mil, so thats another cut or restructure. to franchise would be 9+mil.
you need 4 mil for rookies...thats hines wards contract.
then they have to fill out the roster....figure another few million.
at best, they still have to trim 10 mil, and in this scenario, would lose wallace because they dont have enough to match and offer. so they'd need 18-19 million to franchise him....there's gonna be some serious cuts if they wanna ensure wallace stays in pitt....which is fine by me. cut off their nose to spite their face, just to keep big gay happy.
antonio is better anyway....

You watch yer tongue! It took a lot of hard work to EARN that 4th pick. And yeah... I'd trade the 4th pick in a heartbeat to get a proven #1 receiver. The state the Browns are in now, we need some solid players. The draft is a crap shoot.
-
No way in hell would I trade the #4 pick to the Steelers for a freakin receiver when we don't have a Quarterback.

would you take blackmon with that pick?

obviously not

The Browns are not about to trade the #4 pick in the draft for Mike Wallace. In recent years Randy Moss, Wes Welker, Brandon Marshall, Chad Ochocinco and Santonio Holmes were all traded -- none involved a #1 draft pick. The only WR that was shipped out with a #1 pick as part of the exchange was Roy Williams -- how'd that work out.
For all the talk, the Steelers are unlikely to lose Wallace, a restricted free agent. For one, few teams will be willing to give up a #1 pick. Most quality GMs and NFL Personnel men value #1 draft picks more than casual fans and former lawyers who have innuendo-laced websites. The Steelers would probably be better off getting a #1 pick for Wallace, given their needs at the NT and OL position and the fact they have the enviable yet not enviable task of trying to sign Antonio Brown and Emmanuel Sanders in addition to Wallace in the near future.
Personally, I would love it for the Browns to offer a contract to Wallace so that Pittsburgh would recieve the #4 pick in the draft....

well, not only was moss traded to oakland for a 1st rounder (7th overall), but it also included a player....napoleon harris. it doesn't invalidate your point, but its not without precedent.
id much rather get brown for free rather than trade picks for wallace. im hoping colbert bends over backwards and keeps prorating those bonuses till next year. if you keep wallace, you got no shot at retaining brown.

...and it's gonna be satisfying... This is the same BS you guys have been saying for years. Tony Grossi spewed that garbage in 2010 as he forecast the Steelers in decline and all they did was go to the Super Bowl and have back to back 12-4 seasons. Despite the Steelers aging core, they still have a better young base of talent than Cleveland - evidenced by the fact their biggest issue is salary cap space to sign all of their talent. The Browns have no such issues because they don't have enough talent to push the cap limits. The Steelers still have the franchise QB in Roethlisberger, and while you can spew out as many insults as you want about rape, calling him over rated or whatever makes you feel better -- the nature of his success has him on a path to Canton. The Browns on the other hand, not only passed on Ben to take KWII, they passed on Aaron Rogers and their series of draft day decisions led them to missing out on drafting Sanchez, Flacco, Freeman and Dalton - who have combined for 3/4 Super Bowls, 16 playoff apperances, 18 winning seasons and 2 15-1 seasons.
Below are comparisons of 1st round picks since 2000. Only in the instance of Joe Thomas vs. Lawrence Timmons did the Browns acquire a superior player -- and considering the entire draft, the giving up a #1 pick for Quinn while the Steelers selected another multiple time Pro Bowl LB in Woodley, the Steelers still had a better draft.
The Steelers stable front office, with Kevin Colbert leading the way, consistently finds quality talent. Mike Wallace was a 3rd rounder and has been better than any Browns draft pick since 1999 save for Joe Thomas, and that is just for starters.
So, go ahead and believe the Steelers are going to decline. Whatever makes you feel better, personally, I'll not lose any sleep at night over it.
First round comparisons:
2000 - Courtney Brown vs. Plaxico Burress (notables - Marvel Smith, Clark Haggans)
2001 - Gerard Warren vs. Casey Hampton (notables - Kendrell Bell)
2002 - William Green vs. Kendall Simmons (notables - Larry Foote, Antwaan Randle El, Brett Keisel, Chris Hope)
2003 - Jeff Faine vs. Troy Polamalu (notables - Ike Taylor)

2009 - Alex Mack vs. Ziggy Hood (notables - Mike Wallace)

And well, the terrorist Mendenhall is garbage. I'll take Hillis all day over Mendenhall.

It is true. You are right that the Steelers are better than the Browns and if the Browns draft bad and have bad coaching then that will be the case for the future too. But you cannot deny that when compared to the Steelers acheivement of the past, you guys are slipping down. From superbowl champions - u guys became superbowl contenders and now did not even get past the Broncos to the next round. Your talismanic icon pollamallu is older slower and was caught more in bad defending decisions this year than last. Steelers are on the decline. You just do not realize it cos you are comparing your self to a non playoff team and thinking - yes we are better.

Yes, their logic is "we're still better than you." Maybe for one more year.

Joe Thomas is the best LT in football.
Mack is better than overrated Pouncey.
Haden is better than Ike Taylor already.
It's too early to tell if Phil Taylor is better than Heyward. But Taylor is a SOLID pick so far.
Jabaal Sheard isn't Lamar Woodley, but his a beast and is getting better.
And well, the terrorist Mendenhall is garbage. I'll take Hillis all day over Mendenhall.

Joe Thomas is very good BUT to compare his value to the value of Timmons and Woodley? Ya no. FSG is also comparing draft classes to which there isn't a close comparison at any point. His point WAS the Steelers draft amazingly well and continue to do so therefore a fall isn't likely to occur any time soon. You're comparing positions in some instances and classes in others.
