I would give a 3rd for Parrish if it made sense in terms of contract and dollars. He would make an immediate impact for us and he is proven. How much better can he be with Ben throwing to him versus Edwatds? I think the upside is worth it. I hope it gets done.

Tim, I have to agree with you. I work for a Pgh paper and at the PC, which the ‘source’ was also at, Kevin Colbert did not deny the team was in talks for Parrish… Also our guys have confirmed what the ‘source’ said with some other people and they also say the ‘source’ is pretty respected by not only the team but also guys around here and has broken some other stories for his daily paper.

Friends of mine at KDKA said the Steelers have indeed talked about acquiring Parrish. Sounds like you have some soft of beef with the source. Poor journalism if you ask me. Mike Florio also has reported it. By the way, I agree with Ryan. We cant afford another Willie Reed.

I would rather see them give up a 4th round pick on a proven commodity rather then waste picks on the likes of Willie Reid (3rd round), didn’t work out.

So we give them Foote and one of our fifth round picks for Parrish. Seems logical to me.
