TIOPS has reported that the Steelers have had talks with Bryant McFadden regarding a long-term extension and began preliminary discussions with Marvel Smith regarding a 3-year extension.
They also believe that a deal for Limas Sweed with be announced in the next couple of days and that Rashard Mendenhall is waiting to see what Felix Jones (Dallas running back) signs for. Speculation is that he will be signed before training camp begins.At yesterday's news conference with Mike Tomlin, he again advised the media of Kevin Colbert's prediction that "both unsigned rookies, running back Rashard Mendenhall and wide receiver Limas Sweed, will have contracts by Sunday. Once both sign, one player must be removed from the roster to pair it to 81, which includes the international roster exemption, England's Marvin Allen, a wide receiver." [Pittsburgh Post-Gazette]
