    If LaMarr Woodley and Ike Taylor are looking for new contracts, it's not going to happen anytime soon ... or anytime this year. Steelers director of football operations Kevin Colbert said Monday that there will be no new contracts negotiated for the rest of the season. "As an organization, we decided we're going to focus on 2010," Colbert said. "It's a Steelers decision." Woodley and Taylor, along with Willie Colon and Jeff Reed, are in the final year of their deals and will be free agents next year. Colbert had a lengthy conversation with Woodley during lunch yesterday. "You make sure everyone is communicated to," Colbert said. Woodley is in the final year of his rookie deal and will make $550,000 this season.
