Steelers spend to the cap every year, and have since it was implemented. I don't worry about it at all, really. The cap only matters when you give out bad contracts, or when a star (ie; Le'Veon Bell) demands a potentially cap-loving contract.

See but this is worse than just overdrafting a crap qb who continues to be crap. That happens, and the guy was poo poo anyways so there's no actual tragedy. With Luck, the bad part is how much lost potential he represents. From a bona fide instant star who many thought had the potential to become one of the best in history, to a guy so injured and PTSD-laden that he's too scared to throw a regulation football. It's a goddamn crime and someone needs to be punished for it

I get ya. The reason why I mentioned the Colts aside for Luck is because they used to have a QB named Bert Jones, who they squandered pretty badly. Jones was a very talented and athletic passer for his era - to the point where Belichick said he was the most talented pure passer he'd ever seen - but the Colts never got over the top because his teams played in the 70's, when the Steelers were at the height of their dynasty and they also had to compete against excellent Raiders and Dolphins teams. Then he tore his shoulder up in 1978 and he was never the same QB again. There's some definite differences because of the eras they played in and the relative quality of the rosters each QB had, but the point is that the Colts look like they've squandered Luck as much as they did Jones.

If anyone is saying "please go to x" about Christian Hackenberg they do not care about how he fits on that team.

For instance I hope he now goes to Denver.

I mean even in that case, no. I think he's just totally done and teams would rather play the noodle armed D3 prospect over him.

Gruden liked his potential and gave up on him after a couple of weeks, he must be absolutely putrid in practice.

Brock threw a pick 6 in practice today against the third team defense. On a screen.

Got it, I don't know much about 70s football but sounds like it's a pretty similar situation. I think, for the team/coaching staff/front office to be blamed, one requirement is a stubborn refusal to upgrade the offensive line and protect their star quarterback. I think Luck seemed so amazing that they thought he could do without using his scrambling abilities. And now here we are.

CyberPingu posted:

This is far more likely than him balling out. I'm of the opinion that they might try and put him on the field and he's gonna be awful. Injured, slow and scared. If he's too scared to throw a football in practice how is he going to respond to a defensive line getting after his rear end?

The Colts actually spent a decent amount of draft picks and cash on OL trying to upgrade it. It just didn't work because Grigson is bad and everyone was either a bust or got hurt all the time.
