Yesterday, we painstakingly made the case why the Mike Wallacetrade rumors made no sense. The entire story seemed like an agent-driven Hail Mary.
Longtime Steelers beat reporter Ed Bouchette of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette was more succinct in his analysis: "Ain't happening."
Well, there you go. Perhaps the Wallace trade talk will have legs, but consider the source of the rumors.
There will be teams interested in trading for Wallace for less than a first-round pick. But it takes two teams to trade and the Steelers will have no interest in such a move.
Wallace can huff, puff and holdout this offseason. We may not see him until training camp. But it's safe to say that the Steelers won't deal him.
