Steelers Believe Big Ben Will Return

Salute: Pro Football Talk

Steelers President Art Rooney II told reporters Tuesday that he recently had “a good conversation” with Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger and believes Roethlisberger will play next season.

For whatever reason, Ben Roethlisberger has never gotten the respect he deserves in the auction draft.  Year after year, he's a top 10 QB and year after year, owners shy away from paying him more than $10 or so.  Roethlisberger was the #9 QB in 2016 with 311 points.  He is a serious bargain for what our owners pay him.  I would be comfortable going up to the $25-$30 range for 2017.

On an unrelated note, between retirement talk for Roethlisberger and the recent Antonio Brown kerfuffle, maybe Steelers fans should avoid the newspaper there for awhile.
