do we have a S hurt?

Shamarko ... hamstring. Although the move is more for special teams.

 

[slashsteel]

ah that's right...... probably what it is

 

[Black & Gold Bleeder]

Wasted 5th round pick.

 

[Litos]

is not like we have a lot of depth at OLine

 

[Atlsteelers]

Wasted 5th round pick.

He will be more than likely signed to PS to fill Ventrone spot.

 

[Steelers1356]

Strange move removing O'line depth, since we still have Allen and Golden providing depth at the safety position while Shark's hamstring heals. Unless they see something special in Ventrone.

Wasted 5th round pick.

Why expose a well known 5th rounder to the waiver wire when you can expose the useless Chris Hubbard to said waivers ?

Thats a racist question.

Why build depth when we have such solid and durable starters. Constantly confused with our direction the last few years. Big Ben (8-8), parliament (8-8), Big Ben... You get it. Maybe dangerously average is the direction

Between us and the Patriots, Ventrone has been waived about 15 times over the last three years.

At the risk of sounding like Tomlin, that's the new standard. We just want to be not awful.

Well we obviously have the pedigree to attain 8-8. I guess I should start drinking early today in anticipation of a lackluster performance leading to 3-3.
