RB- i think maysonet poole and alevester will fight for the 5RB spot
LS- Bryce Davis could make it interesting being that warren is 32 and davis can play TE
P- wing and podlesh will be interesting
DL- Fangupo N Williams Mauro i think are fighting for 1 spot
LB- garvin molls vw prolly fighting for 2 spots
DB - allen golden mccain blake are all prolly fight for 1 spot
A little OT, but, for all those who were dreading a Steelers appearance on HBO's Hard Knocks, the series focuses on these types of battles. The stories of these players. It is an awesome show.
I'm fucking pissed the Steelers didn't get picked this year. I'm hoping the results moving forward will dictate that the Steelers no longer qualify for the show
So everyone's predicting Sean Spence is out.
Is he practice squad-eligible, or is he just cut?

Kind of like the Pats have been doing since '05 but substitute Belichick/Brady/Spygate/Kraft/Chowdahead ball.

I think he just gets cut. I dunno. Maybe he takes the spot of V Williams in my prediction.

Good question. You're not eligible if you have more than 1 year accrued service. There's also potential for a 3rd PS year if a team contains no less than 53 players on the active/inactive list at all times (not sure if PIT meets that, but I assume most all teams proactively ensure that so they have the option).
So Spence clearly doesn't have a year of accrued service. I'm pretty confident he also doesn't have 2 years on the PS already (might not have any).
I'm guessing he is eligible for PS. Conceivably he might even be eligible next year, too. I'd expect the team to want to give him every opportunity and all it would take is merely showing the potential that he could one day contribute.

I like to add to this thread any players fellow SteelerFury posters you wish to preview. Players you think may surprise coaches and fans alike making the final 53. Players you think are going to underwhelm and wash out. Players you aren't sure of how they will pan out and of course IYO (in your opinion) locks to make the 53.
Two under the radar guys I've got on the watch list are Blanchflower and Waters. Seems to me after Spaeth there's really nothing of substance regarding the TE position. I know W. Johnson has been taking reps with the TE's too. Which makes the lack of solid back up depth competition even more intriguing.
Another area of great interest IMO is the DLine. There hasn't been this much competition at the DLine position in a good while. Guys in my watch list are Mauro, Lapuaho, Hemer and Williams. Is a very exciting time with camp approaching.
Like the RB corps.
Like the WR corps. Think there's going to be a surprise or two there.
OLB depth is a concern going forward for me. I don't know that Carter has a roster spot after August. I think there's some under the radar talent pushing him IMO don't think Carter makes the 53. That leaves Moats, So'oto and
ILB is currently bottle necked. Plenty of starter material talent there. Who stays? Who goes? Nice problem to have.
OLine is sorting itself out. With the assistance of HOF player and OLine guru Munchak I get the feeling this is going to be one of the better playing OLines we've seen in quite some time. Players there I look forward to watching compete are Wallace and Snow, Browning and Simmons, Elkins and Johnson. Could really have some decent OLine talented guys for the future.
ST's. I really believe the ST's were upgraded a lot this past off season. Although I have yet to see them perform I'm staying optimistic. Lots of ST's experienced players. Smith has to be delighted beyond words.

And yet the team you rail against the most - the Steelers - have won two Super Bowls since the Pats last won one. You're also a fucking dope if you think the Steelers play to an agenda instead of attempting to win. That's a special kind of ignorance.

I think they keep the best 3 TE with Johnson flexing out if needed.

Nice list, only disagreement would be on Heyward-Bey. Think Tomlin and the staff really like Garvin, would be surprised if he's not on the 53. Whimper unfortunately is in until I see otherwise.
Tiny hands, smaller heart.

I would love to see this as I'm no fan of Landry Jones, but do you honestly believe the Steelers will cut bait on him since they used such a high draft choice to get him last year?

PS will not rule out Adding James Harrision
I will be impressed if Mauro makes the roster. I expect him to be PS material as he needs strength and weight at this point. McCullers is a coin flip for me. I wonder if he is either in the 53 or gone. No PS for him.

I can't see them cutting McCullers unless he comes into camp in worse condition than Casey Hampton circa 2008. Planet theory dictates McCullers gets at least a year to develop.
why can't he spend that year on the practice squad? Some draft picks get cut every year, and the latest picks are the easiest to slip through to your squad.The Pierogi wrote:Any Given Sunday wrote:Was Stephings-Howlings cut?

Well, actually you do because you compliment them in the next sentence.SteelerDog wrote:2. say what you will.....but they dont play situationally stupid football as a matter of course or agenda......they play to their best players strengths....
And yet the team you rail against the most - the Steelers - have won two Super Bowls since the Pats last won one. You're also a fucking dope if you think the Steelers play to an agenda instead of attempting to win. That's a special kind of ignorance.
I think that "easing into a game" can be defined as situationally stupid. And I think that was on display repeatedly last year (situationally stupid football). Not recognizing that is a special kind of ignorance.

Jebrick suggested he thought McCullers wouldn't be added to the practice squad if he doesn't make the 53, which I disagree with. But now that you mention it, I also have my doubts about the feasibility of slipping McCullers through to the practice squad.
To put a player on the practice squad, you have to cut him and leave open the possibility of him signing elsewhere. McCullers, given his freakish size, carries a higher than average risk of being signed by another team before he can reach the practice squad, in my opinion, because there aren't any teams who already have a 6'7" 350-pound defensive tackle (or a 6'7" 350-pound anything, for that matter) on their roster.
McCullers is the one low round pick that has the highest risks of being on a PS. But there are still reasons he fell into the 5th round. If he shows anything in pre-season then he would be a risk on the PS. If he does not show anything I guess you want to judge if he ever will show anything. Which is where I was going. For Mauro, he has shown technique but needs to get bigger and stronger ( like Aaron Smith did). I worry more of McCuller's motivation than his size.

I think we're on the same page for the most part, the only difference being that I think McCullers will be on the 53 and Mauro will get a year on the practice squad since he seems to be less likely to be poached away. I originally thought you figured the Steelers wouldn't want McCullers on the practice squad if he didn't make the 53, not that you expected him to not make it to the practice squad if he was cut.
why wasn't that the case 2 months ago when 32 teams passed over him 6 or 7 times? Has he added a few inches (vertically) since then? Teams didn't like him then, but if he manages to get himself cut out of camp, he'll become a commodity in demand? Generally teams are struggling to find roster space for their own draft picks.The Pierogi wrote:mick wrote:why can't he spend that year on the practice squad?

There was a time a few years ago when it was hard for us to slip draft picks through to PS. Other organizations thinking 'if the steelers scouts liked this guyenough to draft him, that's good enough for us. Maybe they just didn't have any space on that loaded roster'. That's unlikely to be a problem for us in the short term moving forward (un)fortunately.

More the point of if he does not show anything in preseason will he ever? I view him as Boom or Bust. Being a 5th round pick he has a much harder time in proving he will be worth keeping him on the PS.

Why I think McCullers is a PS candidate is simply because he is going to require the most refinement. Mauro went undrafted and came to the Steelers likely knowing the depth at DLine in Pittsburgh was shallow which increased the chances of him making a roster. I think at this point in their short careers Mauro is more NFL ready. Not saying either will ever amount to starter level just McCullers is more raw than Mauro. I also think Mauro has less chance making it through waivers to the PS. JMO
BTW McCullers is a 6th RND pick.
