The Steelers approach to free agency has long been to keep their own guys they want to keep and to disdain high profile free agents from others teams. The 2011 offseason is more of the same, perhaps to a fault. As of Sunday night, the Steelers have not signed a free agent that played on another team in 2010, while re-upping CB Ike Taylor, RB Mewelde Moore, OT Willie Colon, P Daniel Sepulveda, CB William Gay, OT Jonathan Scott, and K Shaun Suisham. The only 2010 Steelers to move on thus far are (1) backup DE Nick Eason, made expendable by the drafting of Cam Heyward, (2) OT Max Starks, made expendable by his bloated salary cap figure and bloated weight, (3) backup TE Matt Speath, made expendable by sucking for the past four years, (4) WR Antwan Randle-El, a good guy who’s been done for years, and (5) OT Flozell Adams, last year’s replacement for an injured Willie Colon. A look at the impact of some of these moves:
