Hi Gerry-  Have fans forgotten that the Steelers drafted Roman Wilson but he has been hurt all season?  All this talk about not coming up with a plan after DJ was traded seems to forget this.  And I think the DJ trade was a win for the Steelers.
Gerry Dulac
10:23
Bingo.
Dawn Footballl10:22Will we ever see Justin Fields play in some goal line packages? It feels like he could be utilized bette
I think you will at some point. But, unless it's highly successful, I don't think you will see it a lot

Do you think the rest of the NFL wonders whether the Steelers are the Fields--4-2 team with 298 yards a game, 15.5 first downs and 21 points per game ...or the 2-0 Wilson team.....417.5 yards, 21 first downs and 31.5 points per game?
Gerry Dulac
10:24
I don't think they wonder. They see the difference on film. Who wouldn't??
Tim
10:24
More encouraged by the williams or smith signing, and why?  Both fill needs for sure
Gerry Dulac
10:25
I have no problem with either. I think the Smith signing was more important, especially after the injuries there this season. And it's THE most important position on the defense.

Gerry - who are these imposters   throwing the deep ball successfully two weeks in a row.   Did Ben & Brown sneak into uniform and on to the field? Goodell won’t be happy if the Steelers get caught!
Gerry Dulac
10:25
Haha
Uncle T
10:25
can you rank the trades at the deadline and what do you think the odds of signing Najee after the season
Gerry Dulac
10:26
I like the deals because I think they were necessary and show that the Steelers are not just going to stand pat even though they are 6-2. And I have always believed they will sign Najee after the season, so long as he wants to stay here

Did the Steelers overpay for Williams? The Ravens got Johnson much cheaper and he is better.
Gerry Dulac
10:27
We'll find out. So let me get this straight -- everybody wants the Steelers to get a No. 2-type receiver and, when they do, they question whether the price was too high (which it wasn't)???

Gerry, Thanks for the chat. We all love watching the Bo’s do his thing. And at the risk of jinxing them, how about some love for LS Christian Kunitz and holder Corliss Waitman? Those guys are money every placement. And Waitman has made PHIII a distant memory punting the ball.
Gerry Dulac
10:31
Absolutely. No bad snaps ever. And Waitman has been one of the unsung heroes after Cam Johnston's injury
Yates
10:31
Gerry-  Which of the players coming back from injury this week are sure locks to get a hat against Washington?
Gerry Dulac
10:31
Frazier. Maybe Patterson
Tom M.
10:31
I know it wasn’t the plan, but should the Steelers plan to resign Moore? At this point, Jones may only be suited as the backup swing tackle next year. As we’ve seen with injuries, they need 3 capable tackles.  Conversely, should Jones be handed the starting LT position next year based on his draft position?
Gerry Dulac
10:31
Believe me, it's not a far-fetched thought.
Bill in LA
10:32
Wasn't a 5th rounder kind of high for WR Williams for 9 more games, based on recent WR trades?
Gerry Dulac
10:32
Would you have thought that if it were Christian Kirk? It might be, but we'll see.
WarmBeer ColdWomen
10:33
Would have like the Steelers offering a #1 to Giants for Dexter Lawrence, if we could have kept him for a couple of years...do you know if he was ever on the block?
Gerry Dulac
10:33
That was never going to happen here
Atlanta Dan

Hi Gerry  Agreed the Steelers are not getting their money’s worth on Freiermuth.  Since Arthur Smith previously has emphasized the tight end in his offensive scheme, is it a matter of Muth not getting open on plays designed for him or Smith having assessed that Muth does not have the skill set to merit being a recurring target in an  with Wilson or Fields at QB?
Gerry Dulac
10:34
I don't think it's either, especially the skill-set part
Yates
10:35
Yates-  if 84 is healthy it seems like 83 has limited value to offense.  84 can really help the O in my opinion.  I can’t wait to see what we can do if 22 and 30 and 84 are all healthy.   Is there a better trio in the NFL?
Gerry Dulac
10:37
I think I spent so much time deciphering your numbers I forgot the question. But it's a decent trio for sure
Ross
10:37
Will the pick up of edge rusher from the Packers help our rushing defense???
Gerry Dulac
10:37
The fact he has also played DE should help in the run defense. He knows how to set the edge
Matt
10:38
What round compensatory pick would Mike Williams net us if he leaves in free agency after this year and how does that compare to the worst of our 2 5th round picks we gave to get him?  Also is it true that we only owe him $6-700k for rest of year?  If salary is accurate and we get a compensatory pick next year, he seems virtually free
Gerry Dulac
10:39
The Steelers will owe Williams slightly more than $2 million this season. But I don't think the Steelers will get any type of decent comp pick for Williams because it doesn't work that way. It's based on the number of players you lose versus the number you sign -- and the Steelers signed a lot more than they lost, starting with Russell Wilson and Patrick Queen.

10:40
Gerry With us getting Mike Williams will the top 3 receivers be Pickens one Williams 2 Jefferson 3 or what do you think
Gerry Dulac
10:42
Other than Pickens being viewed at No. 1, the Steelers don't look at their receivers in terms of numerical standing. But Williams has to prove himself to be a reliable and productive receiver before he will become a regular fixture in the offense.
J.C
10:42
Were you surprised by the Dylan Cook move to the practice squad?
Gerry Dulac
10:42
Should I be?
Brian in VA
10:42
Were there no defensive lineman out there available or are the Steelers comfortable with what they have?
Gerry Dulac
10:43
I'm not sure if they were shopping for one, but at least they  addressed the two positions that needed it most
SteelGotIt
10:43
Cordarrelle Patterson return on Sunday?
Mike P.
10:43
Do you think the true value of Queen will become obvious when the Steelers face a number of QBs who love to run in the coming weeks? Will he be playing a spy role, or do you think Wilson is on the field more to serve in that capacity?
