now what?

 

[Black & Gold Bleeder]

or it has come to be known.. "The Turnstile"

 

[slashsteel]

now what?

just the new transactions - new RB -Legs return etc...

and Allen should be listed as a starter

 

[Spike]

oh they'll update it once a day at least

Why do you need minute by minute changes anyway?

Chris Bradford ‏@BCTBradford 26m26 minutes ago
Anthony Chickillo is back at #Steelers facility. Apparently cleared waivers.

All the restructures and cap scrambling makes me think the team is 'setting up' for some post-game 1 veteran signings...at least i hope that is the case. Lots of teams do this to avoid guaranteed salaries for vested vets. I believe a vet signing following game 1 only guarantees 25% of the salary paid up to 6 games when they are again guaranteed full salary.

Guys the team could/should be looking at:

Stevie Brown - S (was a better than most S before ACL injury, still might not be 100% which would explain his release right before the season) Still probably better than most of ours.
Jason Babin - OLB- played both 4-3 and 3-4 on the outside as well as inside in sub-packages (could immediately replace Moats on the Left side allowing him to go back to ROLB to rotate w Deebo- Jones will be out due to injury or poor play soon enough,IMO)
Kenrick Ellis - NT ( better than either of our NTs, IMO and a certified run-stuffer)
Matt Shaughnessy - DE/3-4/4-3 - (could be a great sub-package DE when we go w only 4 rushers)

I don't expect moves like this from Tombert BUT I hope that they will see that playing the best players now gives us the best chance to win now. If we are going to truly run this cover 2, we need players who have helped teams who employed a similar defense, IMO.

Looks like we will have competition to keep Grant...

Expect Steelers and several other teams to pursue Grant for a practice squad spot.

cutting him might very well been a mistake, we'll see

Hope everybody makes it off the ledges!

 

[Ninjaskrzypek]

Grant is back

 

[Black&GoldenShowers]

Hope everybody makes it off the ledges!

Now that Grant is back I am coming in... I still don't like releasing him... Huge gamble and still that is as anyone can sign him off the practice squad

 

[slashsteel]

Hope everybody makes it off the ledges!

revisit after game 1, I am sure there will be plenty of takers....lulz

 

[TDX27]

Just because they are back doesn't mean they won't switch to another team at some point. Happens every year. I hope we can keep both Grant and Chickillo stashed.

 

[Litos]

Hope everybody makes it off the ledges!

it was a stupid idea, I don't care if he's back. Tell me if anyone would've taken Nix or Hubbard?, hell, just cut landry and resign him if needed later (not!). No one will snatch him .

 

[Crimsonsteel]

I know I'm a Bama homer, but I have a glimmer of hope for this guy. Would love to see Barrett Jones crack the the 53 man roster.

FYI...
Steelers released Shayon Green & Ethan Hemer to make room for Grant & Chickillo...

well that sucks

oh you care

Why do people seem to think every steelers scrub is a personal golden egg

We got Cody Wallace from other teams practice squads - we should be scouring the waiver wires for other teams' talent - nobody wants our picks anymore,
