We really needed his presence on defense next season, Woodley depended on it. Worilds isn't worth a damn, and this makes our need for 1st round OLB even more pressing.
Worilds blows and he's even worse trying to play Harrision's side. That LB-corp is gonna be hurting next season. Word is the Browns are talking to Keenan Lewis' representatives about him landing in Cleveland.

Thanks for the memory, [MENTION=802]Crowned[/MENTION]. Just a shame that teams and the players associated with them can't stay together any more. Harrison will always be a Steeler in most people's minds.
