They still have lots of money to play with, just from DeCastro's savings.

Pretty good deal for Turner.


And your mentioning the turn around of the OL, Turner is the official senior member with over 80 games started and second is Okorafor with under 20 games started.

Very low risk with signing Turner to a 1-yr deal. Honestly surprised he didn't have more suitors for that cheap, but he may have opted for the "fit"... Instantly viewed as a starter, and going back to zone-blocking scheme which he favored in Carolina.

At any rate... Steelers get a high-upside bridge for 1 year. Hope he stays healthy.

So for now...

LT Chuks/Banner
LG Dotson
C Green
RG Turner
RT Banner/Chuks

DEPTH:
OT
- Moore Jr, Collins, Coyle, Haeg, Jones, Walton, Leglue
G/C - Coward, Finney, Hassenauer

This training camp is going to be interesting to watch for the OL. I think the only 'locks' right now are Dotson & Turner, at least in terms of position. Chuks & Banner are likely to play both sides until they figure out which fit is best. And the backup positions are wide open across the board. Plenty of experienced pieces in play. Coward got a lot of attention in minicamp with DeCastro sitting out.

Surprised to see Jarron Jones still around after his arrest last fall. Aggravated assault for choking his gf IIRC.

Maybe he just wanted their kid to get baptized.

Seeing some BS circling today from an instagram post claiming that KD Pomp stated coaches were unhappy with Dotson's preparation for this upcoming season. Pomp is backing it up with claims of "indisputable sources".

Both Dotson & his trainer have posted claiming its BS. Dotson outright says the coaches didn't say it. I've watched many of the workouts he did and seen a lot of his photos... Kid looks jacked this offseason. I think its BS.

Beware. I'm sure the story will start flaming up everywhere.

His trainer's post.

Doesn't look like he's been fucking off to me.

Cincy is a tough 1 to bet... The low total is enticing, but the majority of their "winnable" games are on the road.

They should be able to win at least 5 of these: @WAS, @CHI, vsJAX, @DET, @NYJ, @LV, @DEN, vsSF

Getting 2 more wins should be very doable. Wouldn't be surprised to see them split with at least 2 teams in the division.

I totally agree the 8.5 for pgh and the under suggests vegas and the bettors see tomlins first losing season

Yeah no longer a Steeler but this is interesting giving him that much money and not sure when he will return.

I might have missed this, but has Green signed his rookie contract yet?
