Richard Mann

I'm sad to see him retire. He was a great coach and it showed in the Steelers WRs for many years.

 

Maybe he was the reason why we have had success drafting WRs.

 

I was thinking the same thing. Whoever was responsible for finding WR in the draft did a great job.

 

I guarantee u it wasn’t Tubby Tomlin.

 

If we could find someone to hit half as good on the D picks we would rock.

 

Former Cardinals' WR coach Darryl Drake is Richard Mann's successor. Thank God it's not another former player.

Wide Receivers of note drafted by Colbert & Tomlin

Mike Wallace
Emmanuel Sanders
Antonio Brown
Markus Wheaton
Martavis Brown
JuJu Smith-Schuster

 

Correction Colbert & Mann

 

Mann didn't get there til 2013.

 

John Brown to replace Rodgers?

 

Overstate an argument much? Sanders is not much better than average and was hurt a lot with us. Wallace was in the words of Tomlin himself "a one trick pony" and played a serious role in an early exit from playoffs one year by dropping a perfectly thrown bomb and also played a role in costing us a super bowl win against green bay with a drop on our last offensive play, Wheaton came with promise but mostly stunk, Martavis missed a whole year for repeated substance abuse and fell to us in round 4 bc of character issues, and Brown was passed over by almost every team in the NFL (same as Brady) which does not make every team in the NFL dumb, it makes the team that drafted him LUCKY.

I assume you will not even see or acknowledge this post and that is fine.

 

Neither did Tomlin mentally lol

Let’s get cracking on the salary cap.

 

Would Pitt fans entertain Bridgewater as a possible replacement for Ben?

 

No

 

Buress?

And while it was without colbert Ward was drafted under Cowher
