00:00
and they did introduce uh their newest wide receiver yesterday how about dk metcalf meeting
00:06
the media in pittsburgh he's gonna wear number four he didn't want to take 14 away from george
00:12
pickens he said that's his number he's not down pickens he may have had to get a straight jacket
00:18
for him possible uh he does he is not worried about the steeler quarterback situation he says
00:25
that everything's going to work out just fine uh going to the steelers it just felt right for dk
00:31
like i said man these guys showing interest uh coach tomlin uh mr omar and uh mr rooney all
00:37
hopped on the phone with me uh sunday um and it just felt felt homey felt welcoming uh you know
00:42
that they wanted to to bring me uh to this uh historic organization um and you know everything
00:47
was just uh snowballed from there um and brought me uh here in front of you today listen it's real
00:53
simple it is a great organization and it's got a it's got a great history and it's got eight
00:59
superbowls six titles and the bottom line is they win they go to the playoffs and they got great
01:05
fans uh and you can't get a ticket to save your ass i mean it is uh sold out every game doesn't
01:12
matter what the weather is it's just people there people in buffalo they're a different ilk like
01:18
they they just breathe and eat it and that's all they live for and if they lose they literally
01:24
need a shrink like they go into full depression mode when they lose big games so and they both
01:31
lost big games a lot of them but the bottom line is uh he wanted to go to a winner he wanted to go
01:38
to an organization that matters and the steelers are definitely i think without a doubt uh more
01:43
significant than the seahawks it's just that simple the seahawks are just seattle fair enough
01:50
i mean they got a they got a ring i'll give them one but uh don't bore me when you're talking about
01:55
going to eight of them and winning six uh the steelers are allegedly uh high on jackson dart
02:02
and will howard uh in the draft process so i don't have a problem with that
02:07
draft them i thought i thought howard came up huge here's the deal when he had to throw the
02:13
ball and he threw strikes to all those great receivers so here give him great receivers and
02:19
i think the kid can play football and we've already seen that arm of jackson dart so draft
02:24
them go ahead i don't care i'll take either one of them if they draft one of those two and then
02:31
look i have no problem if they end up you know somehow get it because i think russell wilson's
02:35
probably upset with him now that he had to go to cleveland and new york that he didn't get a
02:40
strong enough offer from the steelers the steelers just so we're clear they they try to lowball
02:45
everybody i mean just every yeah i'm surprised they gave metcalf 150 million but it's for five
02:51
years so when you think about it it's market value i've always told you the thing i learned
02:56
when i covered the steelers and traveled with the steelers and went to every game with the
03:00
steelers for three years was is that the roonies pay market value that's it you don't win holdouts
03:06
with the steelers they'll let you hold out until you quit football
