The Facts:
One NFL general manager said the Pittsburgh Steelers have been shopping Staley, trying to see if any team would be willing to trade for him before the team would have to release him. It makes sense. Pittsburgh's backfield is chock full with Willie Parker entrenched as a starter, Verron Haynes as his backup, and John Kuhn, Brandon Jones and Cedric Humes also vying for roster spots.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
According to NFL Network insider Adam Schefter, if Staley is sent packing either through a trade or a release, one possible landing spot would seem to be the Eagles who, to date, have not had any trade conversations with the Steelers. Should Staley be released, and it is within the realm of possibility, the Eagles, who entertained Stephen Davis on Monday, could be on the list of teams interested in his services.
