Holcomb news(sort of)

The following quote from an article by DK on DK Pittsburgh Sports.

“• There's a respectful but real doubt about Cole Holcomb's status over on South Water Street, given the awful nature of his knee injury. Because of that and because Elandon Roberts will turn 30 next month -- with hard, hard miles, to boot -- don't expect Patrick Queen to be the last starting-type inside linebacker acquired.”

Doesn’t sound good

 

Yeah, both him and Kwon had bad injuries. I don’t think either will start another game here.

 

that would be really ROUGH and SAD for them and the Steelers

 

We can't catch a break at ILB.

Hopefully Queen turns that all around.

 

Right? 7 years since Shazier went down and they’ve struggled mightily to fill his shoes

 

but even Shazier - had that bad knee, in what, Yr. 2, I think?

was just hitting his stride in S4, still a pup.

Been a loooooong time for the ILB position, that is for sure.

I forget why he only started 12 games each in 2015 and 2016 - other injuries?

 

This is just random speculation

But it makes sense

 

I'd bring M. Jack back as a backup at least.

 

There’s got to be someone else out there with a little more left in the tank

 

I said backup.....he knowsthe system..., but I agree.

 

year 3 for robinson. usually the year the light really turns on for players. ?????

 

Robinson is a good athlete would be real nice if he could blossom. This would have to be the year.

 

that would help a lot.

 

Just not a lot of ILB prospects in this draft that meet what we need immediately.

 

That he only played a year ay LB in college, I think it realistic that this is more of a year of expectation that last, no doubt he has the athletic ability.
