Ed, do you think the Steelers would be interested in signing C.J. Mosley?
Ed Bouchette
2:19
One more time: No, I do not
Bud

If you were to take a guess today of which team Brown would be traded to, what team would you guess?
Ed Bouchette
2:19
Oakland
Bud
2:19
If our tight end James leaves for a better offer, would you guess they draft another tight end in the later rounds?
Ed Bouchette
2:20
The later rounds, yes, but not before the fourth round. I could also see them not drafting one
Adam
2:20
Have you ever seen talents as great as Bell and Brown get turned on by their fan base like they have?
Ed Bouchette
2:20
Barry Bonds

Do you think there is any credence to Brown's complaint that he and Ben didnt socialize?
Ed Bouchette
2:21
I'm not sure Bradshaw and Swann went on dinner dates

When will we start hearing about us resigning any of our own free agents?
Ed Bouchette
2:22
I would think you might here one or two this week

Are Bostic and Williams worth keeping on the roster if any money saved can be invested in other options with the potential for more upside?
Ed Bouchette
2:22
There's not a lot of money to be saved by cutting either
JR
2:22
Ed: isn’t the ongoing Mr. Big Chest stories and non sense exhausting?
Ed Bouchette
2:23
I'm sure the Steelers feel that way.

Hi Ed, if the Steelers get a 1st round pick for AB and they have two 1st round picks does the team usually select two or use the extra to trade up/down?
Ed Bouchette
2:24
In their modern history, which I peg at 1969 when Chuck Noll arrived, they've had two first-round picks only once. That was in 1989. They added a second No. 1 in trade for Mike Merriweather, a good linebacker who held out the entire 1988 season because he wanted a new contract. They traded him to Minnesota for the Vikings No. 1.
They did not do well with those two picks, drafting RB Tim Worley and OL Tom Ricketts. Both were busts.

Why haven't we released Burnett yet?  Is there any benefit of waiting to let him leave?
Ed Bouchette
2:25
Maybe they're not going to release him. Maybe they want to see what the draft/free agency might bring first. Maybe they'll do it with a June 1 designation. What's the rush?
Geo
2:25
what have you heard or seen Bell going to Ravens
Ed Bouchette
2:26
That would make sense, but I suspect he will follow the money, wherever that comes from

Hi Ed, love the chats, I still think we need at least one more OLB, Dupree doesn't cut it, do you think they'll bring a FA or draft one in the first 3 rounds?
Ed Bouchette
2:26
I agree that they need another OLB and it will come through the draft

Ed, your thoughts on K Colbert stating yesterday that the Steelers will change they way they draft CBs. They will start drafting CBs with VG coverage skills. Other teams have been doing that for at least 3-4 years.
Ed Bouchette
2:27
I thought they did that with Artie Burns, who really isn't much of a tackler
Adam
2:28
Who would you like to see replace Witten in the MNF booth? Not that they could be much worse. Just curious on your opinion.
Ed Bouchette
2:28
I'd love to see Jerry Jones up there, but that won't happen. Ryan Clark, I think, would be excellent
The Standard
2:29
Will AB be traded in the next 10 days?  Will Steelers get a first in the trade?
Ed Bouchette
2:29
In order: Yes, and God only knows
Ken
2:30
do the steelers keep 3 qb's again this year?
Ed Bouchette
2:30
Yes, they have had 3 QBs nearly the entire time under Mike Tomlin
Hickster
2:30
Hope Murray doesn’t fall to 20. I could see Steelers taking him regardless that they have Rudolph.
Ed Bouchette
2:30
Poppycock

2:31
Did you get signed up to receive your personal video from AB for $500?
Ed Bouchette
2:31
He's blocked me
Lloyd's 3-Count

Do you think some of the pending 2020 free agents will fall in line shortly after Ben signs an extension?
Ed Bouchette
2:32
2020? Or 2019? Those who have one year left on their contracts usually are dealt with much later, into training camp

Hi Ed, Estimated guess on when we could hear about Ben's extension being done?
