Rookie Javon Hargrave to start at NT for Steelers in opener

And so the rookie watch beginssssssssssssssss

Congrats Rook! Mitchell loved him early on, so good to see him come this far in such a short amount of time. Also glad we got Big Dan behind him, I like the 1-2 punch with these two, that they're completely different players with different skillsets.

I thought they would have eased him into the lineup as a pass rusher, mainly just to keep him fresh throughout the year, but I'm not surprised he won the job over Big Dan. He had the look of possibly the best rookie from the draft class when they selected him and he is proving his value so far.

Hargrave just ate Big Dan's lunch.

So those 20 yd run plays up the gut are over? I hope so.

Well done. Makes sense. I think Big Dan is a back up at best.
