The Steelers believe Mike Wallace will not report today for training camp and will resume a holdout that occurred all spring over contract negotiations according to Ed Bouchette of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. With that stance by Wallace, the Steelers are likely to suspend negotiations on a multiple-year contract for their Pro Bowl wide receiver. Next move, then, is up to Wallace apparently. He can either sign his one-year, $2.472 million offer on the table and report to training camp or, stay away. Source: The Redzone
2.4 million is low for his caliber receiver they really need him to probably not gonna have the best run game with RM out.
sanders/brown/cotchery is a solid group, but wallace makes its a top 5 group it was a good move by wallace not to show, it was a good move by the steelers to suspend talks as talks were heating up. this is chess, is business as usual. Wallace will probably report and sign day 3-5 i would imagine and talks would resume
I agree with Ward and K-train and think he'll stay out a few days resigning him ASAP should definitely be a priority for them. Speed like his doesn't come around very often.
