| With all the talk this offseason about Ward and Wallace, coupled with a few other players and roster moves, there's one position I feel has been completely overlooked ... kicker.
Suisham scares the shit out of me. I'm not suggesting we should pull a Raiders and draft a kicker with our No. 1 pick, or even a high pick. But I think we need an upgrade to Suisham. I haven't heard any talk about it though. So what do you think ... should we keep him or try to upgrade? _________________  If you're going to be a smart ass, you'd better be smart.

| Oh yeah we SHOULD upgrade. I look for the FO to address this in the later rounds. At least I hope they're not looking at him as the long term solution. | |

Agreed, Dave. Draft, fee agent, whatever. They need to bring in someone who can challenge him for the position. I just don't trust Suisham. _________________ If you're going to be a smart ass, you'd better be smart. Otherwise, you're just an ass. | |

| I posted a few months back about the kicker from the University of Pittsburgh. In a game at Heinz Field he nailed a 45 yarder and had plenty of leg left to make 50+, and it was almost dead center.
But you're right Wally, we need a new, younger, stronger kicker. One that can nail the game clinching FG and also give us plenty of touch backs. _________________  60 MIN 53 MEN 1 NATION STEELERS NATION  I am the MAN that created the MYTH that started the LEGEND

| I agree with Dave. I think the F.O. will address the kicker position in the later rounds of the draft. I don't trust Sushi any more either. It's not Jeff Reed-level yet, but it does concern me. _________________  -"I stand corrected...

That makes two of us. I hope we do get an upgrade at the position. _________________  ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ | |
