00:00and they did introduce uh their newest wide receiver yesterday how about dk metcalf meeting

00:06the media in pittsburgh he's gonna wear number four he didn't want to take 14 away from george

00:12pickens he said that's his number he's not down pickens he may have had to get a straight jacket

00:18for him possible uh he does he is not worried about the steeler quarterback situation he says

00:25that everything's going to work out just fine uh going to the steelers it just felt right for dk

00:31like i said man these guys showing interest uh coach tomlin uh mr omar and uh mr rooney all

00:37hopped on the phone with me uh sunday um and it just felt felt homey felt welcoming uh you know

00:42that they wanted to to bring me uh to this uh historic organization um and you know everything

00:47was just uh snowballed from there um and brought me uh here in front of you today listen it's real

00:53simple it is a great organization and it's got a it's got a great history and it's got eight

00:59superbowls six titles and the bottom line is they win they go to the playoffs and they got great

01:05fans uh and you can't get a ticket to save your ass i mean it is uh sold out every game doesn't

01:12matter what the weather is it's just people there people in buffalo they're a different ilk like

01:18they they just breathe and eat it and that's all they live for and if they lose they literally

01:24need a shrink like they go into full depression mode when they lose big games so and they both

01:31lost big games a lot of them but the bottom line is uh he wanted to go to a winner he wanted to go

01:38to an organization that matters and the steelers are definitely i think without a doubt uh more

01:43significant than the seahawks it's just that simple the seahawks are just seattle fair enough

01:50i mean they got a they got a ring i'll give them one but uh don't bore me when you're talking about

01:55going to eight of them and winning six uh the steelers are allegedly uh high on jackson dart

02:02and will howard uh in the draft process so i don't have a problem with that

02:07draft them i thought i thought howard came up huge here's the deal when he had to throw the

02:13ball and he threw strikes to all those great receivers so here give him great receivers and

02:19i think the kid can play football and we've already seen that arm of jackson dart so draft

02:24them go ahead i don't care i'll take either one of them if they draft one of those two and then

02:31look i have no problem if they end up you know somehow get it because i think russell wilson's

02:35probably upset with him now that he had to go to cleveland and new york that he didn't get a

02:40strong enough offer from the steelers the steelers just so we're clear they they try to lowball

02:45everybody i mean just every yeah i'm surprised they gave metcalf 150 million but it's for five

02:51years so when you think about it it's market value i've always told you the thing i learned

02:56when i covered the steelers and traveled with the steelers and went to every game with the

03:00steelers for three years was is that the roonies pay market value that's it you don't win holdouts

03:06with the steelers they'll let you hold out until you quit football
