So who was the worst Steelers Free Agent signing?
 
Mahan. How that guy was in the NFL baffles me...but apparently encouraged our braintrust...fart.
 
Still has to be Graham, because as bad as those other guys are, none were actually given the keys to the team. There is no way to hide a qb as bad as Graham was. He lost his job to Kordell, and it was legitimate. Kordell took his job on merit. Think about that.
 
Can I pick all six?
 
Staley was never the same after Suggs punched his hamstring. Up to that point in the season I beleive he was the teams leading rusher.
Didn't Mahan play in Super Bowl XL?

No the Steelers Center in Super Bowl XL was Jeff Hartings.
 
Definitely Mahan.
 
Ah, thanks for the correction, I do remember him being on the line that year
 
Mike Mitchell blows, but I kinda think that he at least in part couldn't work in tandem with Troy. He might be more salvageable with another Safety next year. That said, I hate the guy. He took so many stupid penalties and literally made no big plays to speak of. You would think a safety that is on the field for 17 games, might be in positon for an overthrow or a deflected pass, or jar a ball loose or something. I have no specific recollection of him making a play all year.
 
Mitchell.

He was signed to be an improvement over Ryan Clark, and was to be an important part of what could have been a damn good team. He blew chunks ... and as others pointed out, he made exactly zero plays the entire season.

Zero.

No interceptions, no broken-up passes, no forced fumbles, no nothing.
 
It was a virtual tie between Mahan and Mitchell.

Mahan fit the bill of a transition to a soft offense with no philosophy while Mitchell was an actual big-money signing and had virtual nothing to show for it. Typically I like to give guys more than one year before making such a judgement, but I saw nothing to give me any hope.

Mitchell was really good at late hits earlier in the season. Got a fistful of flags.
