Still have DHB, who I think is underrated. With the crop of youngsters I don't know that he'll stick this year though.

Sets up a pretty good competition for WRs. I'm hoping Jesse James improves, too. It'd be nice for him to be the next Heath Miller.

Agree. I think with 10 years in though, DHB will lose out to the younger guys this year unless Quadree and Tucker look really bad in camp and preseason.

You'd think that, but he's as savvy as they come. He's the fastest receiver on the roster. The top ST gunner, and plays all 3 positions. That is a tough player to replace.

Tucker is only a slot receiver. He has better hands than DHB, but hasn't shown what he can do as an outside receiver. I think he could backup the X and if so, that might kick DHB down a peg.

Quadree is only a KR/PR at this point. All of his stats are end around and jet sweep runs from the slot. I don't even know if he can catch a football. He has the toughest route to make the team, but he needs to kill it as a returner, and some of our young safeties need to show they are better as a gunner than DHB to move him off the roster.

My WR depth chart releases tomorrow at 6pm, and I go into a bit more depth on that. Still I always enjoy the discussion Ron!

Great insight and loving your articles, much appreciated. It's been a long offseason.:wacko:

Don't get me wrong, I HOPE they keep DHB, I just don't know that they will.
 
Eli is back in town per Depot.

And the story continues. :)
 
Yup, Eli is back at the Steelers facility today. They may sign him to compete. He knows the playbook so he will have an advantage there.
 
You know the depth at WR is thin when you need a guy like Eli Rogers in camp.
 
Ditz Bryant is still available.
is it hilarious or sad, or both, that we'd go with Rogers instead?
 
I'd love to see Dez in this offense for one season. That's all he wants is a one-year prove himself deal with a contender. Hello B&G. . .

Depends if he's still a head case.
