We as Steelers’ fans have been clamoring for Eric Weddle to finally wear the black and gold. That’s good and all, however he’s 31 years old right now. How much longer will his body be able to keep up with the physical demands? How hefty will his price tag be?
And what about cornerback? Its an obvious need as well.
The Steelers need a contigency plan in case any sort of Weddle deal goes down the drain. Or if the Steelers simply want to go a more younger, yet experienced route.
If the Steelers want to go down that road, I say we should offer a contract to someone who can play both defensive back positions and that has the potential to become even better.
