Throw in a year's worth of Juliano's pizza and you might have a deal.

Happy to see you’re still on the job, Gerry.  Will Ed Bouchette be back for the Paris trip?
Gerry Dulac
10:55
We're working on a throwback jersey for him

Who is in contention for punt and kick returner? Is 2nd rounder Germie a possibility?
Gerry Dulac
10:56
I think 4th-rounder Wetjan is already slotted
Pepe Lepieu
10:56
Greetings Gerry; when teams play an international game, a la in France, are the designated home team's season-ticket holding fans given a one game refund?
Gerry Dulac
10:57
It's probably applied to the following season's package, but I don't know for certain.
Ryan from Ohio
10:57
Do teams like going overseas to play or is it dreaded.  Seems like it will happen more frequently now.
Gerry Dulac
10:58
I don't think the players love it, to be honest. But I think they've learned to accept it and enjoy it as much as possible. There can't be one Steelers players from last season who didn't love and enjoy that game-day scene in Ireland. Incredible

Hey Gerry. JPJ is going to get signed right? What are your possible projected numbers? I think he is turning into a legit shut down corner… what say you?
Gerry Dulac
10:59
I think he is going to get signed, for sure. But I'm not going to anoint him a shut-down corner just yet
Henry Hill
10:59
Gerry, I haven't seen any articles or chat sessions from Brian Batko lately, I hope he wasn't a victim of the new ownership's reorganization, am I just missing them?
Gerry Dulac
10:59
Maybe. Brian is around.
West Coast Danno
10:59
Patrick Sertain or Joey Porter Jr.?
Gerry Dulac
10:59
Really?

No one is getting paid in the chat anymore.  Does the PG agreement mean you get to keep all the money?
Gerry Dulac
11:00
Hold on, hold on.....

I bet you are glad the NFL Draft is over.  IMO the most overblown event in all of sports, but having it in da burgh was cool.  I have to say I am more excited to watch the Steelers this upcoming season not only to see an actual QB competition in camp, but also to see how the new coaching staff does.  10-7 last year easily could have been 12-5 if they win 2 of the 3 vs the Bears, Bills or Browns, and I think they can be even better this year running an actual NFL offense. Cincy could be tough if Burrow does not get hurt, but he is made of glass.  Baltimore has a new coach that may not be an upgrade, and the Browns are the Browns.  I'm going w 12-5, AFC North title (again) and yes, at least one playoff win.  Call me crazy.  Is that a fair/realistic prediction?
Gerry Dulac
11:02
Hey crazy, it could be fair, maybe not totally realistic. But I get your point. I thought they were an 11-win team last year (close) and I think they are that again this year, barring significant injuries. And I get your AFC North breakdown.
Leroy

Will we see Boswell's contract extension announced by the team soon?
Gerry Dulac
11:02
Why is that a concern?
Oy
11:03
Re chatters who mentioned being happy that "all of you" are still here -- does that mean Zeise is still with the PPG? I hope so. His absence here this month has been deafening.
Gerry Dulac
11:04
Sadly, not everybody was retained
Peter
11:04
Rodgers almost never have leaks... did he let it slip out that he would be in town the same weekend as rookie minicamp to try and take the attention off of Allar because... well... Rodgers is Rodgers
Gerry Dulac
11:04
No.
Eric Witt

Does the rodgers situation go beyond may 18th?
Gerry Dulac
11:04
It's starting to look that way.
Hines Fan
11:05
When do you think Hines will get in the Hall? I’m probably biased as a Steeler fan, but I feel he’s more than deserving. Thanks for all you do for us Steeler fanatics!
Gerry Dulac
11:05
He is more than deserving, but it's going to be tough, based on what I've been seeing.

Gerry, Herbig was originally projected as an indoor lb coming into his draft class would it be reasonable to resign him for inside and rotate him in packages spelling our two outside guys?
Gerry Dulac
11:06
You see him play that role in defenses when the other two OLBs are on the field. But it is not reasonable to move him to the inside permanently. He's not that type of player
Cdub
11:07
I don't know if drafting Max will work out or not.  However, 6 O-linemen and 2 QB's were taken before the Steelers were on the board, so they basically had a top 13 pick from the field.  Seems that would've been better value than the 7th best O-lineman.  What do you say?
Gerry Dulac
11:08
Well, they wanted a WR, and I've told you all along that was their plan.
Peter
11:08
Any word from inside the org if they are happy about going international again in 2026?
Gerry Dulac
11:08
How could anyone complain about Paris??
Joe
11:09
It’s encouraging to see the Steelers not forcing “position flexibility” on the #1 pick.  Good lord, let him build on what he knows!
Gerry Dulac
11:09
Pay the man!
OK kids, that's all the time we have today. Thanx for the questions.
