It's becoming more clear why the Steelers were more than happy to trade him away to us and why we basically did the same.

if the Steelers part w/ a WR.....you don't pick up that WR.  That's been proven as the law everyone should abide by.

This is why you don’t fall in love with what you THINK you have. Locking this dude up like so many wanted to do based off of the first few dates was ludicrous, and completely the panthers thing to do. It would have been a disaster.

You only dish big $ to people who fit the franchise and love football with every fiber of their being. 

Draft well. Build culture, brand and loyalty. Keep your own.

He already proved what he was....we often are the woman who thinks she can and did fix the man.  Robbie Anderson is better than DJ!  Let's lock Diontae up quick!

Maybe we might have learned something from the Robbie Anderson deal?

I made this very remark back when people here were wanting to pay this guy 20-25 million a season once upon a time. A few people jumped all over me.

I've been skeptical of Morgan but at least he was wise enough to cut bait quickly after taking a chance on this guy. He's just another headcase WR.

all looked like legit and showed enough to think they might be studs….but Mike Tomlin clearly can sniff it out and part right with them right before the bad comes

Remember when people here were losing their minds that we didn't get like a 1st round pick for this dude?

Lololololololol

 

I wasn't thinking 1st round comp, but I thought Morgan got 100% robbed on the trade. I didnt realize the level of cancer he was in his FA year.....of all the time to go off-script and tank your value, NFL dumbass of the year right there... 

Dang shame cause at Carolina they feed him- he was open and caught the ball. I honestly thought he could have gotten a late 3rd (form a playoff team ala KC). But pitt was trying to trade him since the 2023 deadline, no one bit. Then Morgan tells the world he's cutting djak and Pitts offers a cancer....

 

Deal is he should be getting 20million per if not more, but he's got a few mental issues. rip life changing money....

    • Why would you use a post June cut on anybody? Why kick the can? Think we're going to the Superbowl next year?  Take the full cap hit in 2025. Go all in later, when the core is improved. 
    • I cannot disagree with this---free agency does not have a lot of #1 WRs and those who will pimp themselves come with a huge price tag.  I also think that bringing in another TE who can make plays is something people might be overlooking--but not in rounds 1 or 2.  To your point:  If you go back to camp, we gave up on TMJ, traded Mingo, lost AT to an injury, lost Johnson due to a permanent head injury (joke)--and we were left with an undrafted rookie, a raw rookie first rounder, and a special team player who has overachieved.   We have 3 options--sign a high-priced #1 WR (and not many will covet Carolina); try our best to convert XL to that role and draft a Z WR, or draft either Hunter or McMillan to be the #1 WR, and I am not sure Hunter should be on offense. McMillan is a great red zone WR and runs the complete route tree with precision.  He will be a good one. McMillan, XL, AT, Coker and maybe a lower-tier free agent would be impressive, considering only 1 of your WRs is not on a rookie contract-you could argue that McMillan would be effective day 1, when an edge might take a year--spend your money on the edge or DT, not WR.  I see that logic. (Burden fans:  I like him too, and he can probably do more as a WR than McMillan--sweeps, screens--he can do it all, but I wonder if he is a true #1 or best suited for a slot role?  I wish I knew more about him--but if we trade back and grab him, I see the value--he might complement Young more than McMillan--don't know.) A DT like Graham would make our run defense ugly-good, and his pass rushing would make our edge players better.  However, there are players later in the draft who would not be as big a drop off.  I am not high on the edge players early (Carter is boom or bust to me), but I think round 2 has some players who will be good--but maybe not immediately. Concerning edge:  If you wait until round 2, the pick we got from the Rams is about 50.  According to Tankathon's big board, that is when you grab your edge--I do not see much difference here between the first rounders and second rounder in terms of production.  To me, at edge you need a kid with a nonstop motor, and these guys are high motor players with productivity to match: 
    • If Evero is back   3-4 OLB in Carter would be a terror.as the stand up edge LB.   Evero play’s a lot outside of his base and a lot of 3-3-5.  With all safeties hitting FA.  They get him this mismatch chess piece at the position
