It’s really hard to not make knee jerk reactions when it comes to supporting your favorite sports teams — or hating their biggest rivals. I get it. I’m even guilty of it myself. When the Steelers drafted T.J. Watt 30th overall in 2017, I thought — in my obvious infinite wisdom — that drafting the falling Reuben Foster would have been a better value. Clearly I’m not an NFL general manager for a reason as Watt has become one of the best players in the NFL and Foster was cut by the San Fransisco 49ers in 2018 after multiple arrests.
With the Steelers sometimes patience, not the knee-jerk reaction, is what’s necessary
