Pair of local college products are getting cut by the Steelers, per sources:

Larson Graham, C/G, Duquesne
Matt Galambos, ILB, Pitt

Galambos spent part of last season on the team's practice squad. Neither got very close to first-team reps throughout training camp.


9:20 AM - Sep 1, 2018

Did Galambos even see the field? Practice Squad?

[steelergenie]

I doubt he makes the practice squad. Too many better players

[steelergenie]

DE Casey Sayles (Bo Marchionte). Down to 87.

[steelergenie]

WR Damoun Patterson (waived/injured, Jeremy Fowler). Shame, dude was
playing great. Hopefully they can bring him back or put him on the practice squad.

WR Damoun Patterson (waived/injured, Jeremy Fowler)

It takes 24 hours to clear waivers to become PS illegible?

IR storage maybe

Likely IR'd... Galambos didn't see any preseason playtime except in game 4 after Thomas had his cramp injury. Likely PS'd.

Turf toe shouldn't last too long. Need to stash him somewhere.

Didn't Turf Toe end Jack Lambert's career?

Yup, back in the dark ages of medical technology.

I think this was a mistake waiving him. They should have IR'd him. He's going to be picked up and become a great receiver for someone else (hopefully not the fucking Pats or Ravens).

[Steelafan77]

With such a jam packed WR corps I think this is the Steelers way of putting Patterson in a position to check if there's a market for him. If no takers they IR him... JMO

Actually, I hate the fact that he was waive regardless as that means we will probably be stuck with Hunter or DHB as WR's. We know Switzer will be another for his KR/PRs. I don't like Hunter or DHB and think we could do better than them on our roster. Patterson has more skill than both of them put together and he is just a rookie, imo of course. Hope he does clears waivers and the Steelers do stash him somewhere.

[Legacy User]

How about the CB from Temple...did he even play?

[SOCALSTEEL]

K Adams cut but Chickilo stays!!LMFAO!

Steelers released vested veterans quarterback Landry Jones and safety Nat Berhe. https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status ... 4304001031

There you go. Landry Jones gone. Good move, imo. Brian Allen gone? interesting.... Hope he can make the PS.

Adams should make the PS. Along with Fitz, Hodges, T. Jones, Patterson, and Hooks, to name a few.

They kept Banner as the 9th OL.

A couple guys I thought would make the team. Chick stays, yeah ( he's fucking useless). Would rather have Adams over him, would rather have Allen over Sensabaugh.

There you go. Landry Jones gone. Good move, imo. Brian Allen gone? interesting.... Hope he can make the PS.

I’ve liked him more than the other 2nd year guy, Sutton.

[Steelafan77]

Glad they kept Ridley...

[alancac98]

Tomlin stayed true to form, with the exception of Landry Jones - he kept his boys Hunter, DHB, Chick, and Red. With Hodges cut, that must mean the Grimble and/or McDonald are ready to go for the season.

[Steelafan77]

Glad they kept Banner too...Dangerfield got some respect too?

Suttom was good last year. Allen showed hardly any real growth this offseason. Not surprising they chose Sensabaugh over him.

[jewelsongs]

One more to cut after Bell arrives. I would guess Dangerfield, but it could be Ridley.

[Minkah'n History]

Glad to see Toussaint go.

[Steelperch]

The depth chart on Steelers.com shows Bell, and only 52 total players. Switzer is not listed there so he’d be 53.

Gotta think Dangerfield's respect is going to last until Bell signs. No? 26 O, 24 D and 3 ST.

Roster shows 54 by my count. 26 O, 25 D and 3 ST.

At the least it would nice if Tomlin stopped saying the “we don’t live in our fears” bullshit because well, he clearly does. Better options at this point than DHB, Eli Rogers, & Chickillo etc.

Props for doing what’s best longer term by getting rid of the highly mediocre to not very good Jones though.

Keeping him would him would have created an immediate need to draft another QB next year. Made no sense.

Ya ya he knows the offense.

Dobbs is a year two player and a real smart guy. If these coaches can’t coach him up enough to make a spot star or finish a game it’s on them, not him. Especially considering the added factor he brings to the table with his mobility.

More reps for he and Rudolph. Whoever is showing best is #2.
