Hefty Praise from Kevin Greene

How good is LaMarr Woodley going to be? If you ask Kevin Greene, he says "He's going to be better than me." Considering where Greene ranks on the All-time sacks list (#3), it would be tough to find more meaningful praise for Woodley.

Plus, the Steelers have Pro Bowler James Harrison on the other side.
"When James doesn't want to be blocked, it's very difficult to block him," Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said. "He's a Pro Bowl player for a reason."

The 6-foot, 242-pounder was cut by the Steelers three times before sticking with the team, and he understands as well as anyone how tough it is to get to where he is -- and to stay there.

"If you're satisfied, then you might as well retire," said the 30-year-old Harrison, who was voted Steelers MVP by his teammates last season. "I want to improve on last year, so you look at those numbers, and you tell me."
When discussing the the duo, Greene says:
"You've got one who is a bona fide Pro Bowler already and the other has a great gift," Greene said. "I think they're going to be fine."
Couldn't agree more with Greene. Expect a lot more of these...
