    This is a guy that I have had absolutely no faith in for the last 3 years.

    It seems like every offseason after his rookie year they try to give him the starting Job and by the end of training camp he has lost it. I feel like as long as he is in a uniform they will talk about his athletic ability and will pass up on signing someone with less athletic ability that maybe plays better on game day.

    I think Moore beat him out at LT last year, and baring Banners crazy last-minute injury Chuks would have been on the bench last year where he belonged.

    I hope to not see Chuks in a Steeler uniform again.

    It is likely as it is possible he will price himself out of Pittsburgh... then again.. there is the likelihood that Banner also leaves but with so little leverage.. I believe he stays.

    Pretty sure they will bring him back as the backup swing tackle.

    No one on the OL has really improved since Munchak left

    I was never a huge fan. Average at best. I guess it depends on the benjamins

    I would bring Chuks back on a modest 1-2 year deal and cut Banner.

    Chuks is not great but he is not a total liability either. If he cleans up the penalties he would be fine as a starter while they try to build that line up
