LATROBE - Ben Roethlisberger drove all afternoon to sign the contract his agent worked all night and into the early morning to hammer out. And it was worth it.
Roethlisberger, the Steelers' No. 1 draft pick and franchise quarterback of the future, agreed to take $9.009 million off their hands with the stroke of a pen. It was the largest signing bonus the Steelers have ever doled out and could possibly turn into $40 million by the year 2009.<
