The Steel Mill | Pittsburgh Tribune-Review The Steelers were so enamored with Syracuse strong safety Shamarko Thomas that they were willing to give up a 2014 third-round pick in order to jump into the third round to draft him. With the Steelers likely to get a third-round compensatory pick next year for the loss of Mike Wallace, it made getting rid [...]

Behind the Steel Curtain It's really hard to not make comparisons between former Steelers WR Mike Wallace and Steelers third round pick, Markus Wheaton. MW. MW. Fast. Fast. Wallace was the 84th pick in the 2009 Draft. Wheaton is the 79th pick of the 2013 Draft. If that's all it takes, the Steelers may as well give him the number 17. Oddly though, NFL.com's scouting profile on him lists Antonio Brown, and not the former No. 17, as a comparable. Wheaton, a highly productive and quick and very fast receiver from Oregon State, had a great collegiate career. Racking up 227 receptions for 2,994 yards and 16 receivin...

Behind the Steel Curtain It has become a cliche to say that Mike Wallace can take the top off a defense. We all know that Wallace is fast, and the threat of him stretching the field vertically certainly causes strain on a defense. However, even with that threat, the Steelers' offense has not been able to consistently produce a lot of points and a lot of big plays. Playing wide receiver means a lot more than being able to run fast. Moreover, it means a lot more than being able to run good routes. I'm not saying that those things are not important or not nice to have. Instead, what I am saying is that there...

Miami Dolphins April 23, 2013Boston Herald He doesn’t fit the profile in terms of being that tall, physical cornerback who can man up and go toe-to-toe in press coverage with the AFC’s elite receivers such as Miami’s Mike Wallace, Baltimore’s Torrey Smith or Denver’s Demaryius Thomas.But the more you watch Jamar Taylor, the more he grows on you. The more you learn about the Boise State corner, the more you’re likely to want him on your team.
New England Patriots April 22, 2013FFToolbox.com The Steelers really had no chance of re-signing wide receiver Mike Wallace, but the sting of not having him on the Heinz Field turf will be felt for a while. Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger understands this. "People don't realize how important it is to have a guy with [Wallace's] ability on the football field and the guy who is probably going to notice it the most right from the get-go is Antonio Brown," Roethlisberger said in a radio interview Friday. "Safeties have to respect Mike's speed. Cornerbacks and the defense are scheming to stop Mike Wallace going deep. It opens us other receivers, s...
April 20, 2013CBSSports.com Fantasy The Dolphins added Mike Wallace, Brandon Gibson and Dustin Keller this offseason, but receiver Brian Hartline doesn't expect his role to change. Hartline projects to be the No. 2 receiver in Miami this season behind Wallace. "I’m just going to keep playing the way I play," Hartline said in an interview with CBSSports.com. "The coaches will put me in position to make plays. As long as we’re winning football games, that’s all that matters. Hopefully I’ll get some opportunities. And when the opportunities come I’ll make some plays."

April 15, 2013The Daily Dolphin | Palm Beach Post A couple of Dolphins notes to kickstart your week: 1. Dolphins offseason program starts today. Mike Wallace, the Dolphins’ new $30 million receiver, sent out a tweet this morning: “Up early and ready to get it.” That’s because the Dolphins’ 2013 season officially begins today as the team opens its 9-week offseason workout program. Most of the workouts are voluntary, but most of the players reported at 7:30 a.m. today to meet their coaches and begin training for next season. Some players receive bonuses for showing up to the workouts — Wallace, for example, gets an extra $50,000 — but for the l...

Behind the Steel Curtain Just because Emmanuel Sanders signed an offer sheet from the New England Patriots, does not mean the Pittsburgh Steelers will let him go without a fight. At least Ed Werder thinks so. Expect Steelers to match Patriots offer sheet and retain WR Emmanual Sanders. He's vital after loss of Mike Wallace and offer easy to match — Ed Werder (@Edwerderespn) April 10, 2013 Werder has a valid point. The loss of Mike Wallace in free-agency already pushed Sanders and fellow young money man Antonio Brown into elevated roles with the team by default. Sanders departure will only increase the p...

The Phinsider This has easily been the wildest Miami Dolphins offseason that I can remember. By bringing in big names like Mike Wallace and Brent Grimes, this shows that this team is ready to win NOW. But, it's the signing of guys like Dannell Ellerbe, Philip Wheeler, and Lance Louis, that shows that sometimes we really don't know what's going on in the mind of GM Jeff Ireland. Make no mistake... there are a plethora of options to explore in the upcoming draft. From trading up, to trading down, to trading to next year's draft alltogether, we could all be stunned in a few weeks on what direction we g...
