Kimo Von Oelhoffen or Nick Eason

Who would you rather see coming in off the bench to spell Aaron Smith or Brett Kiesel?

Kimo was cut by the Jets and is available for cheap.

I personally think Kimo is better than Nick Eason. Put Eason on the practice squad and bring him up in a year or two if he shows significant improvement.

What do the rest of you think?

I would take an old Kimo over Nick Eason any day...But I don't think its going to happen.....The Steelers just resigned Kendall Simmons to a 4 year deal worth 24 million with 8.5 million guaranteed.....

With the jobs of our front 3 being to clog up the run lanes and occupy as many blockers as possible to allow our LB's to make plays........Kimo is a horse and he was very good at this job! Kiesel is a starter because Kimo left. Adding Kimo would really give us a lot of depth at the D-line.

Oh I agree with you on Kimo....Like I said though I don't know if the Steelers can bring Kimo in now since they resigned Simmons

I don't know what their cap space is now....

Kimo deserves to retire a Steeler.

**Prosdo** · 09-02-2007, 01:34 PM

Kimo for sure. We all know what Kimo is capable of.

Kimo, Chris Hoke and Kirschke would be an awesome backup unit to the starters. I'd take him over Eason any day. Kimo could play for another couple years yet while we groom a better prospect to take his place.

Keisel earned that starting job, he's just going to be flat out awesome for us. Having Kimo back him up would be great but unless he is willing to come very cheap Im not sure it'll happen either.
