Can we go after Brian Simmons or Lance Briggs?

As much as I liked Porter & how he played, it's a business & he was gettig too expensive. The Steelers will miss him, but they can get some mad dog LB's in the draft Paul P. from Penn State should be avail. plus many others blue chip backers. If nothing else, the Steelers have always proved that no player is irreplaceable.

The Steelers have let much better players than Porter walk and they still win. Porter didnot have a good 2006 and has a reputation as a hot head and big ego. The team still has a good LB corp and can replace him with little problem. No great loss!

Pittsburgh intended on cutting Porter and resigning him for less money. However, Joey Porter has that kind of attitude that won't let this happen, so I don't expect him to be in a Steelers jersey next year.
Don't worry. There are plenty of LBs in the upcoming draft and in the FA pool.

i liked porter, but i think he's replaceable and you know how the steelers operate, they don't like to reach down deep in their pockets when they know they can just replace someone, too bad, but that's the business

He is getting older and was due 5 million. You can buy a good LB with half that. Someone like London Fletcher maybe.

They cut him to re sign him later.
