Now that the draft is over and we have 3 HB/TE's on the roster it should be abundantly clear that a "true fullback" isn't a priority with Haley either.

We have Will Johnson, John Clay and 85 and Legs..
I hope with the bolstering of the O-Line it gives "Legs" more opportunities at FB. Man I love to see him in the backfield.Originally Posted by coldrolled

Johnson- hb/te
Johnson- hb/te
Clay- rb(I'm betting he gets cut)
Legs- OL If we can manage to skip the injury bug this year we'll probably see him in goal line situations again, but still not a fullback.
I was hoping they would take one of those 7th round picks and go after one. If you're a team that wants to stay committed to running the football, why not have a true FB on the roster and have him double as a ST type player. DJ isn't exactly a stellar player at that position either; these hybrid type players just never excite me.
I agree. But they may still address the fullback position. We'll see.
The Steeler way...is the only way.
We dont need a full back. DeCastro and Pouncey pull well and Haley will use weapons properly to help our running game. I am fine if we have one, but not sure we need one.

I think if it were in the cards, they would have picked one up in the 7th.
I agree i don't like hybrid TE/HB's hopefully we will add a FB, we have Saunders, DJ,Pope, Miller, and they drafted a TE WTF?
John Clay is like 250lbs at 6'
Will Johnson is 240lbs at 6'
these guys are FB's in a non Arians offense.
They are to short for TE's
