Nice vids Mike. Ok, so this guy can smash.....but can he cover? That is where our weakness was last year. Gibril could tackle....but he could not cover. Is this an actual pass coverage upgrade?

Yes, yes, yes, yes, and more yes. This guy makes Wilson look like he belongs on a school yard flag team. Thanks for the good news mike!

Omar Kelly reports it is going to come down to his physical. He had a spleen removed last year and there is concern over that

Spleen was removed Nov 17th of 2007.

Shouldn't be an issue unless it has been some other re-injury. There are numerous reports of how he came back healthy from it.

Understand they also pulled the Gall Bladder too.

Hoping they get it done today. We need to focus on other needs, and this would be a nice upgrade over a position we paid for last year and got a lemon.

My question with Wilson is was it him or the DC schema?

Bottom line I guess it doesn't matter anymore. as both are now gone.

It wasnt just the spleen and GB, he has sickle cell trait is the concern

Guys this guy is legit. he could be missing a leg and a liver and would still be better than Wilson. Maybe this time we wont have to hold our breaths every time the ball goes deep. Lets hope this deal gets done and we see him and Dansby make this one of the top defenses.

It is looking even more likely, as Adam Schecter is reporting that Pitt has mov3ed to replace Ryan Clark with Will Allen (from tampa)

I know I keep repeating myself but I really l like Ryan Clark.I was listening to NFL radio today and Peter King was raving about the guy. saying he was one of if not the smartest DB in the game. talking about how he is the qb of the steelers secondary. long story short I haven't heard anyone say it would be a bad move

Excuses are tools of the incompetent...those who specialize in them rarely specialize in anythine else

his coverage was better when Troy P. was healthy. When Troy got hurt and was out, Clark's coverage skills were worse.

Is that his fault? Was Troy's backup hurting him? Was Clark trying to do too much with Troy out??

Who knows. But it could be any number of things

Losing Troy Palamalu leaves a huge gap for any team.

Pittsburg papers are saying the drop off will be hhuge if they acquire Will allen (tampa version) in replacement of Ryan Clark.

Somebody likes him

Sounds like a backup for Bell, not a starting FS.

read a post that said he has taken his physical, but no contract signed as yet. Forecasting tonight.

In that pitt is formally signed a replacement, it only puts more push to get it done

I went to a Pitt board and most of the guys were bummed that he was leaving....but they all agreed he is only an above average Safety.

My son is a BIG Steeler fan (I know...how did that happen) and he is not happy at all. They got Ryan from Washington when the Skins drafted Laron Landry to team with Sean Taylor. The Steelers had just lost Chris Hope to the Titans and my son said that the Steelers backfield did not miss a beat with Ryan Clark back there. I also read a story that painted Clark as a thoughtful person, he was concerned because he had built up such a great relationship with Sean Taylor and he was concerned going to Pitt. But he teamed with Polamalu and was very pleased with their relationship. That and Peter King's assessment of his backfield QB talents will do the Phins good as I think they have 2 young guys there that could shine in the future (Clemons & Culver) and maybe he can help mentor them the way I have seen Pennington mentor Henne.

Well, in fairness, the title of the thread didn't say with whom he was going to sign.

True, and the "Welcome to Miami" could have just meant he bought a vacation home there with his signing bonus money.

Yes, he re-signed with Pitt according to his agent.
