Carter was a defensive end at Fresno St., but at 248 lbs. he’s too small to play that position in the NFL. He will convert to linebacker for the Steelers and get a chance fight for a reserve roster spot. With the Steelers front 4 established, there is a place for him in a backup …
Cortez Allen is a bit of a raw player but has a lot of natural talent and athletic ability. Coming from the Citadel, he had limited time to really work on his football skills but he took full advantage of the opportunities available to him. He’s a good size athlete and plays the bump and …
The final pick on day 2 of the 2011 draft finally gave us all what we’ve been pleading, begging, and screaming for. The Steelers defense finished tops in the NFL vs the rush, and for good reason. By the time the midway point of the 2010 schedule came about, teams had virtually given up even …
Most of the Steeler Nation was hoping for the name “Aaron Williams” to be called when the Steelers handed in their draft card at Radio City Music hall late Thursday evening. Mike Tomlin and Kevin Colbert had different ideas though, and seemingly all along they were targeting the defensive tackle from OSU, Cameron Heyward. The …
With the schedule being released this week, it gives us some hope that the 2011 NFL season will still happen, and maybe even on time. I know, I know, in the grand scheme of things we don’t know what will happen yet, but hey don’t ruin my positive vibe. In any event, over in the …
This time last year, Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger was going through the roller coaster of a lifetime. In early March, 2010 the story broke that Roethlisberger was accused of sexually assaulting a college student at a local club in Milledgeville, GA. For Ben, it was a nightmare situation to be in. His name was being …
Mike Tomlin has put his stamp on this Pittsburgh Steelers team early with some real solid draft picks, especially in the traditional “day 1″ status. Those players that were picked in the first 3 rounds are rarely a bust in Pittsburgh and so far in the Tomlin era, that traditional rings true. While the Steeler …
One of our members, jpele, posted up this article from the Tribune Review. John Harris raises some good points as he talks about things that are of a concern to the Steelers or soon will be as this offseason moves forward to an eventual start of the 2011 season (whenever that is). Coach Mike Tomlin …
Good video from NFL Network with Colts Center Jeff Saturday and Rich Eisen, as they discuss the reasons the NFL Players decided to decertify. I must say that Saturday does make some valid points, however as you’ll see, Rich asks him several times why they didn’t give it a few more days to try to …
Is this lockout starting leave a sour taste in your mouth yet? I know it is for me, but it’s still “ok” for right now because the draft isn’t here yet. Once that hits and we continue down this current path, things will go downhill at a more rapid pace. When I say it’s “ok”, …
