    Just signed a one year deal with the Steelers. There’s the depth we needed at WR and kills any Dez Bryant talk.

    YES. I am so glad he's back. The injury is tough but I like Eli quite a bit.

    I'm glad Eli is back. Our WR depth is looking better now especially if Marcus Tucker can make the roster. Eli is a nice option as a 4th receiver.

    Well I am glad it was a 1 year offer.. It will surely be tough for him to get anywhere close to production activity he had last year.. Especially less than a year off of ACL surgery..

    I’m assuming he is football healthy now.

    Very nice for depth, so I wonder who the odd men out will be?

    Obviously AB, Ju Ju, Washington are in.

    2 spots left between Hey Bey, Hunter, Eli, Quadree Henderson....

    Unless Henderson blows minds with his return ability, I am leaning towards Eli and Hey Bey nabbing the final 2 spots.

    Ben has spoken very highly of him, saying he has the ability to be the best slot WR he has ever played with.

    I don't think he's guaranteed a roster spot, think he is going to have to earn it and prove the injury is behind him.

    Nice depth if he can pick up where he left off.

    Coach T said he will start on the PUP but he isn't concerned since Eli has been rehabbing at UPMC and they liked what they saw of it.

    Good to see him back.

    Will he make the 53? Could be real tough.

    The guy was a non factor last year and coming off a torn knee. He is about as insignificant as they come in terms of this team. 4th WR on the depth chart at best.

    Players get hurt and we do use 4 wr sets occasionally. 4th far from prime time, but I’m not sure I’d go all the way to insignificant.

    If he ends up 4th and we have an injury sure he then sees the field sometimes. But honestly I’m not even sure he beats out DHB Hunter or another camp surprise.
