    I think they'll take 9 LBs. LJ Fort will not make the team, Matthew Thomas & Olasunkanmi Adeniyi make the 53...
    Landry Jones will be the backup with Rudolph backing him up but never getting a helmet ...Dobbs odd man out/practice squad
    Grimble will be our 3rd TE because McGee is out for the year...
    Don't sleep on Marcus Tucker, he has a shot to make the 53...

    Jones is not eligible for the PS...Do you not know this? You don't know players who are ALREADY out for the year? Are you really a Steeler fan?

    That wasn't what I meant. What I meant was, do you keep Jones to run things for the D in practices. If you keep Jones as the #3, he only gives you 2 things that Dobbs doesn't.

    1. A veteran backup. Not sure this matters as if Ben gets hurt you are playing your #2.
    2. A more savvy guy to push the D in practice.

    We don't usually carry a 4th QB on the practice squad, so your #3 is running your scout team/practice squad for the D.

    It's easy to miss roster moves this time of year.... Why would you question a members Fandom?

    I like how you're "loading " the RB room.

    Jones will be the #2 QB this year. Fans are hanging on to his early struggles. He's a very capable and solid veteran backup QB now. Tomlin likes his veterans!!! Dobbs goes to PS.

    Sensabaugh is gone with a healthy Haden and Sutton. His ST is enough that Berhe can't replace that easily.

    Hunter .... I had high hopes for him last year. Since he doesn't play ST at All his spot is in Jeopardy.

    I guess Grimble is back in for McGee but what is your adjustment with Hawkins out?

    I didn't take it that way. We're good.
