His dad has a serious Steelers pedigree, and although Todd’s a little eccentric, he’s a heckuvan OC. steeltownpride is absolutely right about Ben. He’s never pushed himself, and he wants Fichtner because Randy keeps him in his comfort zone. Haley is exactly what this offense needs.

Arians and Ben were to buddy buddy . We need someone to will rattle Ben some . Haley will challange Ben more than Arians and hold Ben accountable .

I dont see the Steelers worryng about him too much at this point because we do have Redman, Dwyer, Batch and Clay as well. Not sure what the Steelers will do… that being said…

Please NOOOO to Haley…3 reasons

1. He runs too much, I like an even balance but I think he is too conservative.. maybe was QB he had?? Not sure but I dont care for his offense.

2. I dont like his attitude ( from what I have read and seen, I dont think I care for the guy )

3. Lets say the Steelers have success ( they will be in the upper tier of teams for awhile) … He is going to be looking for a head coaching gig again so I dont see why bothering with him just to have for a year or maybe two. It doesnt make sense other than he like the smashmouth football.

I say NO as a fan.. but Tomlin and Rooney are both smarter than I am so I am sure they will pick who best fits what they want..

Completely agree. Unless the guy has Adrian Peterson talent ( 220 lb with 4.3 forty) he should not be a 1st rounder, hell probably not even a 2nd rounder. Watch a team take Trent Richardson in the 1st round. And all they’ll get is Beanie Wells, Mark Ingram, Lagarrette Blount, Rashard Mendenhall 2.0

He dances around too much and doesn’t hit holes at full speed. Redman is better and falls forward. Mendenhall is done. Only Arians liked his 2 yard carries. I’d rather go with Redman, Dwyer, and Clay.

Mendenhall was a dumb pick. Drafting RBs in the first round is a waste. Teams don’t win with high-priced RBs. Look at NE, GB, etc and compare them with teams who pay a lot for their RBs: Minn, Tenn, Jax. Not a perfect science but it is a passing league, and while a good RB is needed they are a dime a dozen. Case in point, the Steelers beat Arizona in the SB with Mendenhall on IR.

Take your time and get the right man!

Have Scott Pioli send over the recorded tapes.

That’ a lost season and how good will he be after this?

Please don’t do this. I still remember Anquan Boldin cursing him out in Arizona ….. then he proceded to pout like a lil kid on the sidelines. Please be patient, there’s no rush.
