Mike Wallace

This is the place for team advice - should I make this trade, should I draft that player, etc.

Actually I'd sell him right now before the Steelers likely draft a WR in another week or so. Its asking a lot right now to think Wallace will fill the void left by Holmes leaving, there still are a lot of question marks right now regarding Wallace and their offense.
Agreed. Didn't everyone have a love affair with Sweed not that long ago anyway? What if this is the opportunity he needed to get himself focused and ready to go?

Can we get an official rule regarding NSFW forum icons? I'd hate to have to stop browsing the forums during the day because I'm afraid a female co-worker will walk by........



Bubba: I'm not trying to start a fight. For the record though, an 'out' route has the receiver cutting towards a sideline 8-15 yards down the field. I've never heard anyone call a fly route an 'out'. :shock:

Are you kidding me? Do you know how long it took me to find a 1972 GTO Judge with a chick on it? Lmao.

If the Steelers trade away Big Ben, most of my hope for Wallace this year is going to go down in flames.

Yea, there's a lot of uncertainty right now with the Steelers skilled position players...in fantasy and real life.

I had Wallace on a deep league roster and was pretty excited at the Holmes trade. The latest has tempered that excitement. He's still a hold, IMO.

He did not play out of the slot all year and in fact learned and played both flanker and split end (mostly flanker of the two). I'm not sure if you have just never watched him and are going off things you have heard? In any case I highly recommend you go watch Wallace in some games and then come back with your input.
Dang...the Vidon going Vince all over JB.... :lol:

Considering I spent a full day last week fighting with Vince through private messages, and i recently started my quest to eliminate the Jax and Rod nicknames, I'm on a roll.
See what you call fighting I call discussing we should all know this by now :lol:

I will admit though... that was pretty ME-like, back in the day :lol: maybe us Philly people just have an edge to us :roll:

Except Hardy didnt produce because 1) he isnt that physically talented 2) and 2 he has played in Buffalo, with terrible QB's and terrible weather....Sweed has had extenuating circumstances...and if Holmes hadnt been traded I wouldnt feel nearly as strongly as I do now. Because with Santonio gone, and Ward on the verge of retiring, I guarantee they give him an opportunity to redeem himself and contribute. GUARANTEE....And i think he could shock a lot of people. So why not take a flier on him? Everyone is giving up on him, so not like its gonna cost you much (probably a tad more than it did BEFORE the Holmes trade but still not much). And when he does, Im going to hear a bunch of doubters saying "well i need to see him do more"...and if he doesnt then....its not like i invested my team in him (maybe my confidence, but not my team) :lol: .

Very well put. He's worth the risk.
