Steelers 2016 player releases and practice squad signings

Posts : 11707 Join date : 2011-04-04 Location : Dunedin, FL

I figured since there's going to be multiple announcements forth coming, we could use one thread instead of creating multiple ones.

So when posting releases/practice squad signings, let's try and keep them here.

Here's the latest reduction to 79 per www.nfl.com

Quote :: Cuts to 79: LB Jordan Zumwalt, LB Mike Reilly, WR Issac Blakeney, WR Levi Norwood, TE Michael Cooper, DE Giorgio Newberry, DT Khaynin Mosley-Smith, CB Julian Whigham

I am the MAN that created the MYTH that started the LEGEND

Don't choose good when greatness is available!

Ladarius Green has been put on the PUP. So we won't see him until after Week 6. Totally not worth the money that we spent on him. I had such high hopes for that guy and this offense. Maybe he will be healthy by then and give us a boost.

The Steelers have released safety Jacob Hagen, defensive tackle Devaunte Sigler and cornerback Kevin White.

Yeah, how the hell did he injure his ankle before ever even practicing? Did we not bother to give him a physical before we signed him?

At least Jesse James has looked serviceable if not pretty good imo. Having Ben in the game seems to make all the difference with JJ and all of our other receivers.

Pretty sure Green's injury stemmed from late last season when he was still with San Diego.

The Steelers have placed Bruce Gradkowski on IR to make room for Zach Mettenberger, ending his season and possibly his Steelers career.

Steelers last three pickups from San Diego -- Cam Thomas, Ladarius Green, Zach Mettenberger. I'm just saying...

Hey, when do they announce practice squad? Saw that Feeney, Ayers and Lyons were all candidates to be on it.

I'd like to see them kick the tires on Desir or Carter

I'd pass on Desir. He was stiff in coverage and didn't look good in change of direction. IMO, he was mostly a product of the annual pre draft hype/hope to find the next Richard Sherman. Pierre Desir, Stanley Jean-Baptiste, Eric Rowe, etc all get hyped by bloggers because of length and a decent number or 2 at their combines, but most are better trying their luck at safety, because they don't have the quicks to stay with NFL WR's at CB.

Which means he WILL eventually find his way to Pittsburgh. Bank on it.

I'm told Steelers plan to add former Titans RB David Cobb to their practice squad after working him out today. Fifth-round pick in 2015.
