    The Steelers had an open roster spot, and added Larry Ojunjobi...Now, with Archibong going on the IL, the Steelers are back down to 89, and can add another player...

    I've been banging the Justin Jackson drum all off-season...I'd think he be a huge upgrade over who we have...And maybe... Would have Tomlin at least think about lessening Najees workload..

    ILB, T, OLB, TE, CB? Is their a particular Guy or position you would like to add to?

    I will throw out the name again of RT Derwin Gray.

    The BAD: He has ZERO position flexibility. The man was simply born to play RT.

    Bring him in and let him practice at RT and Chucks will be sitting on the bench by midseason.

    He's out of the league, but you think he would replace Chuks as the starter at RT :facepalm:.

    Chuks has lost every camp battle he has ever faced at RT. This is why the Steelers spent the entire offseason last year explaining how much better of a LT Chuks was going to be than a RT.

    I think last year he was beat out at both the LT and RT position. Banner at RT and Moore at LT.

    DJ has all the leverage.

    He is the only starting #1 WR currently on the team!!!

    Hey, you never answered my question about DJs replacement.

    You claim DJ has no leverage, who on this roster can easily replace DJ. With Washington, JuJu, and RayRay, gone not too many WRs with NFL starting experience left in the room.

    Claypool and his 2 TD season from last year, or maybe the rookies and their actual no NFL experience at all?


    This is why I think the Ravens will be lucky to win 8 games this year. They lost their best WR and have not replaced him with anyone. This league is setup for teams that have Super Star WRs to win.

    Brice try to keep up

    I have already explained what will happen if DJ holds out

    Who starts when he is out i
    Right now Chuks is the only starting right tackle on the team
    Ditto strong safety
    Ditto 3 QBs
    One starting RB
    Do they all have leverage and should hold out

    And exactly what leverage does he have

    What can he force the team to do

    He has a contract the team can make play or sit

    Right now I am assuming that all 3 WRs, DK, Deebo, and DJ will hold out to start training camp for better deals, or trades.

    Like I said in another thread I hope he does the TJ Watt holdout thing for training camp until the Steelers give him a new contract like they did with TJ.
