I think Ed Reed and the tight end are shoo-ins in the modern category. Others up for grabs

Am I the only one amused by Hines' pearl-clutching when talking about Brown's antics? He was a bit of me-first too if I remember....

Ed Bouchette

Hines Ward was a team player, all about team. I never saw him throw a fit because a ball did not come his way.

Ed, Does Sean Davis get an extension? Stay at FS or move backs to SS? Thanks

Ed Bouchette

2:31

Not sure about an extension. He has one year left so they'll probably talk. He's not done enough to earn a huge contract, so he might want to even bet on himself and not sign if he doesn't like the money. You have to keep him at free safety

James Ryan

Ed have you talked to any players on the team personally that were dissatisfied with what AB did? Even if it was anonymous? I feel like so far its only been people defending him.

Ed Bouchette

2:32

Yes I have. None on the record

any reason 2 believe Steelers will address Ben calling out teammates on the radio ?

Ed Bouchette

2:33

That is so overblown. He did not rip them. If they cannot take what he said, maybe they are in the wrong sport.

Have you read Ralph Cindrich's book?

Ed Bouchette

2:34

Yes, in fact I helped him with it as sort of an editor. Excellent book. Really. Some great stories you won't see elsewhere about some big-time players and NFL honchos

Leaper

Any idea what the Steelers see as a more pressing need, CB or ILB?

Ed Bouchette

2:34

Maybe equally so.

Ed, do you think AB is out regardless of Pitt’s trade return if they decide to part ways? Say they’re only offer is a 3rd? Thanks

Ed Bouchette

2:35

As I mentioned earlier, once they decide if they trade him or don't, that's the decision, not the return.
