00:00Let's get to the Steelers camp here.

00:01Cam Hayward, not to be confused with Cam Jordan,

00:03not to be confused with Cam Ward, the quarterback.

00:05Everybody gets those confused.

00:07It's easy to do.

00:08Defensive tackle Cam Ward for the Steelers.

00:10He wants his money and he wants it now.

00:13Otherwise, he's not going to provide his services.

00:15What do you think about that?

00:16I usually get him confused with Cam Stewart.

00:20So I'm glad that you absolutely clarified that for us there

00:23because that is tough.

00:25Too many Cams.

00:25But I will say this, though.

00:28He is currently the 22nd highest paid defensive lineman in the league.

00:35Now, you tell me, is he, what, the 22nd best defensive lineman in the league?

00:43Absolutely not.

00:44Don't forget, this market got reset over the offseason here.

00:49And he is not asking for the world.

00:51But you're talking about a dude last year.

00:53He was tied sixth in sacks in the NFL.

00:57He had eight.

00:57He was fourth in pressures.

00:59He was fourth in tackles for loss.

01:01He had more batted passes than any other defensive lineman.

01:05Does that sound, even at 35, 36 years old, like the 22nd best defensive lineman in the league, Donnie?

01:13I see where he's coming from.

01:14I see where he's coming from.
