Broderick Jones................... Save the jersey / patch the name

[Drink IRON City]

Jones appears to be on his last chance. He needs to gain weight and strength.

Good read on home page article.

I like the "last gasp" reference.

Do they out-right cut him??? Is his neck spinal fusion the end of his playing days here ???

I dont get this. I thought Broderick played a hell of a lot of snaps and held up pretty damn well. Ill consider the Pittsburgh media sources on this one.

If Cook is on the struggle bus tomorrow and Fautanu. Also has issues again at LT, I wouldn’t be surprised to see them flip Fautanu back to RT and put Jones back at LT. Jones played fine last week, plus he’s in a premium position.

Keep in mind that we don’t get to see the day to day stuff.

I’m rooting for Jones as an underdog role to make the team.

If I was his agent I would try to talk contract extension. He might get a big pay day since he isn't a starter.

I hope the rookie is healthy soon.

After last nights game, Jones will be lucky to make the practice squad. He really looked lost and overpowered.

Jones is and always has been trash, hopefully garbage day is coming soon.

Trash? That’s harsh.
The guy had a serious neck injury last year and to his credit he has tried to come back.
Unfortunately last nights performance shows how far he is from being ready if ever.

Only thing I noticed was he is really good at picking up the QB after a sack.

Just move on from this guy please.

I think we see whats going to be a major issue like it was during the Tomlin error.

Save the nameplate. Another Jones is bound to come along. A guy who can actually block, maybe.

 

[steelhurt]

Broderick Jones looked really bad and late in the game against scrubs he was struggling and that is concerning.
This previous coaching staff did this guy no favors and in particular Meyer the former OL coach couldn’t develop him. He was pretty much a raw talent with lots of potential coming out of Georgia and needed solid coaching at this level and never got it.

Sad thing is we all know Munchak would have these young guys in the pro bowl! They were calling guys like decastro a bust they hired Munchak and he went the pro bowl along with an undrafted free agent! Noll had a saying you can teach blocking you can’t teach speed draft speed! We seem to be doing neither.
