00:00The Steelers have talked to the Miami Dolphins about trading for Pro Bowl tight end Jonu Smith.

00:06Now, Smith allegedly prefers to stay in Miami, but he wants to be paid more,

00:11and it doesn't sound like the Dolphins are willing to be the team that pays him.

00:15Of course, the connection here, Scotty, is that Jonu Smith played for Arthur Smith in Tennessee

00:20when he was the OC and then joined him in Atlanta when he was the head coach.

00:23So there's a lot of connection with Smith and the two Smiths, Jonu and Arthur.

00:27Well, one of the connections that they don't have is the Steelers paying anyone.

00:33That's very tough.

00:36The Steelers don't want to pay anybody.

00:40Yeah.

00:41Like you were mentioning earlier, they have Fryermuth.

00:46And Washington.

00:47He's 6'7", 300 pounds.

00:50Big dude.

00:51Big dude indeed.

00:53All right, let me at least play the Kenny Smallhands for you.

00:55Now, a lot of people in Pittsburgh have taken this as a dig at the Steelers.

01:02This is Kenny yesterday at Brown's OTAs.

01:05Of course, he was with the Steelers for two years, then spent a year in Pharrell at Althea.

01:09He talked glowingly about the Eagles, like if his time at the Steelers didn't even matter.

01:14Here he is.

01:14I'm extremely grateful for my time in Philly.

01:16I think I just, you know, we're showing how it's supposed to be done, really, from the top down.

01:19So when you get a chance to see what it's supposed to look like and how it should look on a day-to-day basis, not just on Sundays,

01:26you know, I think it'll pay dividends for me in the future.

01:29Listen, I don't think he's wrong at all.

01:33Let's, I've already said this on a number of occasions, that Howie Roseman's the best GM in the NFL.

01:43Sirianni goes to Super Bowls.

01:46He went and lost one.

01:47He went and won one, right?

01:49Like, they're the standard right now, and the Steelers aren't.

01:54The Steelers are a one-and-done playoff team.

01:57They get to the playoffs and they lose.

01:59That's who they are.

02:01The Steelers have six Super Bowls in their foyer.

02:05So they've been eight times.

02:06So it's not like they don't win Super Bowls.

02:10They go to playoffs now and lose.

02:12That's their problem.

02:13The Eagles go to win, and they go to win titles.

02:16So I don't begrudge them at all for saying it.

02:21He sucked in Pittsburgh, and he did nothing in Philly except win a ring.

02:26And then they got rid of him because they think he sucks, too.
