Hines Ward says he wants to retire a Steeler and that is understandable. But in the hard business of the NFL, if the Steelers do not want the aging wide receiver at any price, then what better place for the Forest Park High and University of Georgia grad to finish up his storied career than with the Atlanta Falcons?

Putting Franchise Tag On Mike Wallace Makes Most Sense For The Steelers

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Mike Wallace is currently a restricted free agent and team president Art Rooney II said in his 2011 season wrap up interview that signing Wallace to a long term contract would be a priority.
