If he cannot secure a starting job this year he should be cut from the 45 man roster. Okay, you couldn't supplant a 7 time pro-bowler, thats understandable. But he is gone and it is an open competition for the spot that you were drafted for and you still can't win it outright? Don't let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya! Back-ups are supposed to push the starters and make them play harder. Somehow I just don't think that Alan Faneca ever felt the hot acrid breath of Kemoeatu on his shoulders.![]()
Kemoeatu is a mauling run blocker. If he gets a hold of you, you are just done. He is a liability as a pass blocker and is basically useless pulling.
Actually, in some short yardage situations last yar, they did put him at Full Back.
yeah they did do that and he did pretty well as I remember. I've always liked Kemoeatu, he's got a mean streak in him, he's tough and powerful but when you can't pull and move as lineman on the Steelers you won't last long. This is a make or break time for him coming up. He'll probably still make the team regardless of whether he wins the LG job or not this July but if we have to count on him for any length of time I'll be pretty worried.
