Steelers used to be known for their great linebacker core. They have had some big misses in recent drafts.

Bush was killing it before the injury. Last season he looked more lost on defense than he looked liked he was coming off an injury.
Yeah he was all in his head last year. Not trusting his body and the indecisiveness…

I just hope playing next to Jack gives him some motivation

The deal fully guarantees $40 million at signing, with another $17.22 million guaranteed for injury. That amount becomes fully guaranteed by March 2023.

In other words, to avoid owing him $57.22 million fully guaranteed, the Eagles would have to cut Brown after only one year.

As it stands, Brown will be 29 as he enters the last year of the contract, putting him in line potentially for another top-of-market deal.

And even as more great receivers arrive via the draft every year, teams are paying more and more money to proven receivers. Brown became a proven receiver in three years with the Titans. But they weren’t willing to make the investment the Eagles made — and the Eagles gave up draft capital in order to do it.
 
Tennessee knows that they have peaked with this roster.

I think it was very smart to trade AJ Brown. Don't overpay for him when you will rebuild soon.

Drafting willis in the 3rd was good. Still not sold on him but he'll have time to sit learn and compete
