What a job this would be. A nice stable organization.

Uncertainty at QB, but a solid organization with a pretty talented team and experienced coaching staff.

Rumor has it they really like Malik Willis. They can probably get him too.

Yeah, that job has the perfect blend of stability, talent on the roster and an opportunity for him to make his stamp on the roster by picking his QB of the future. I feel like it's actually one of the best jobs out there.

He could be dangerous with that offense.

Goodbye Ed Dodds. 

[BlackTiger]

This would be a great job, wonder if hes a front runner

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

They are interviewing internal candidates too. I could see them going that route with a organization that liked to keep stability going.

This may finally be the one that he takes

Dodds after he's get the call offering him the job

Man I hate the Steelers almost as much as the Patriots. However, you can’t deny it’s an incredible organization from top to bottom. I hope he gets it. Maybe he will trade us one of the sweet WR they always seem to get and let walk in FA. 

[RollerColt]

It's bound to happen at some point that he leaves us. I'm right there with you, @AwesomeAustin, hate the Steelers, but a job's a job.

Maybe they’ll hire Joey Porter.

If there was an organization to leave here for the Steelers have to be high on that list. I’m not a fan but you have to appreciate their ownership, fanbase, and to each there own but I’m a HUGE Tomlin fan.

 

If he has desires to be a GM I don’t see him passing on this position if offered.

 

Sucks because he seems so dang cool and knowledgeable in everything I’ve seen him in.

I mean, the lifetime ketchup supply is probably worth it alone.....

It sure seems like Dodds is having a hard time getting a job.  He’s had a lot of interviews.  Maybe he just doesn’t interview well.

Rumor is he was going to be very picky where he goes. I think though opportunities are going to dry up and teams will quit asking for a interview if he keeps pulling out. He is still up for the Steelers job.

That's a stretch. People said the same thing regarding McDaniels

That's fair. As long as the individual continues to enjoy success there will always be calls for job offers.

I think the Steelers are taking their time. Their GM isn't retiring until after the draft, so they don't have to rush. I would think this would be the job Dodds would go all out for. If he doesn't get this one, his approach might change moving forward.

 

He's also still young and has plenty of time on the clock.

You are right and they should take their time.  They are entering a transitional period where if they want continued success they need to get it all right. They have a fantastic coach and a premiere edge rusher with a few other pieces to build around.  They need to hit on their next QB decision. Not sure if they will bring in a stop gap like Jimmy G while they try to draft the next guy or do a full rebuild.  Will be interesting to see how they transition to life after Ben.

Saw Morocco Brown also interviewing.  Would prefer Steelers hire him so Colts can get some extra draft capital

[Scott Pennock]

If he is offered he would be a fool to turn it down. If not offered then Pitt must have one heck of a strong candidate in mind! Dodds and Ballards relationship could lead to maybe a potential trade or two down the line if Dodds does depart.....
