Cause I don't believe it is luck or a 4 or 5 good game stretch. I live in Pittsburgh. I see them every week besides watching dolphins games with nfl sunday ticket. I believe he is a really good player . Maybe the all pro stuff is a little over rated but otherwise I think he is a top safety. If you don't that is fine. But it was for a first round pick and that pick turned into Jackson. Just like Patrick Surtain use to talk about how he was traded for Mat Roth. Surtain was traded for a second rounder to the chiefs. We used that pick on Matt Roth. Surtain laughed about that. People here love to collect draft picks that they are gold. But eventually they turn into players. If the player that you take isn't as good as you drafted then the trade was a failure.
Bottom line is we are still searching for a safety. We might have got one in the draft this year. But we didn't need to trade Mikah. He had no damn leverage. He was a second year player. What was he going to do? retire or sit for 4 years?. The problem was it was Flores first year and he wanted to use Mikah a certain way. Flores wasn't going to budge because he had to show it was his way since it was his first year. I think if this happened in Flores second year he would have been more willing to listen to Mikah and make some adjustments. Let not make it out that he is not a good player. If you don;'t believe me. Ask ross, flores and grier. They had lunch and dinner with him to try to convince him to stay. They understood he was a good player.
fans know you cant win with a shitty locker room.
