Since the Artie Burns project took a very steep drop last season, the team has been searching for an answer at the position across from Joe Haden. Last season both Cameron Sutton and Coty Sensabaugh tried their hands at the role, but neither fully solidified their spot. Sure, Sensabaugh played the second half of the season as a starter, but if he blew the coaching staff away he wouldn’t be sitting on the free agent market waiting for a team to sign him.Not about to sit back and wait on other teams to pick up the best free agents, the Steelers went on the move. They tried to acquire Bradley Roby, and failed. They didn’t miss twice, signing Steven Nelson to a new 3-year contract.Many fans Terrell Edmunds Jersey White , myself included, were not familiar with Nelson’s body of work with the Kansas City Chiefs, so I reached out to Arrowhead Pride’s editor, Pete Sweeney, to get a feel for what Nelson has done the past four years while in Kansas City.This is what Sweeney had to say, and to get a better grip on Nelson you can always head over to Arrowhead Pride for some tremendous coverage:The key for me in the above statement from Sweeney is how Nelson has improved almost yearly since entering the NFL. If this trend continues, the Steelers would have picked up a cornerback who is just starting to blossom entering his second NFL contract. Not a bad scenario for a team who is under contract for three years, and could be without Joe Haden after 2019 when his contract expires.The written word is one thing Womens JuJu Smith-Schuster Jersey , but the eye test doesn’t lie. I went through Twitter and found some clips of Nelson throughout his career. He is a physical player with a nose for the football. Is he perfect? Absolutely not, but he certainly is an upgrade over what the Steelers have/had at the CB2 position.Check out the clips:With the signing finally sinking in, it is time to get a feel for what you think of the signing? Do you like it? Do you love it? Or do you hate it? Let us know in the comment section below! In Miami, they’re losing because they planned to. In Cincinnati, it has been more organic, which perhaps makes it more frustrating.Wide receiver Tyler Boyd summed up those frustrations from last night’s 27-3 loss to the Steelers, which dropped them to 0-4.“We got embarrassed,” Boyd said Womens T. J. Watt Jersey , via Ben Baby of ESPN.com. “Straight like that. It sucks.”More or less, yes. but they weren’t last night. Rookie coach Zac Taylor tried to shoulder as much blame as possible, because that’s what coaches do.“We didn’t expect to be an 0-4 team, but that’s what we are right now,” Taylor said. “There’s no excuses we can make. . . .“To be quite honest, it starts with me. I’ve got to make sure the standard is higher than what it is right now because I haven’t done a good enough job and there’s certainly things that I’ve got to improve on.”Of course, he can’t fix the injury problems JuJu Smith-Schuster Jersey White , which have taken away their best player (A.J. Green) and made a mess of their offensive line (which allowed eight sacks of Andy Dalton last night).While those are shorter-term issues, there’s a more troubling trend there. The Bengals have lost 13 of their last 15 and are rapidly losing hope this year.Suddenly, the decade-plus of stultifying mediocrity under former coach Marvin Lewis doesn’t seem like such a bad deal any more.
