Depth Chart for Steelers

by jgentry425 on Aug 23, 2011 8:04 AM EDT

DOL posts the depth chart for the Steelers preseason game here.

A few things to point out:

WR - Kerry Meier is listed behind Roddy, and Weems is #3 behind JJ and HD.

RG - Reynolds is still #1, not surprised, but notable

TE - Reggie Kelly is #2, followed by palms of fury. see note on RG.

RB - Jacquizz is still #5 behind those other 2 guys. I hope this is just to weed them out.

FB - Thor is #3, not living up to his name.

RE - Sidbury is behind Abe

DT - Starters are Babs and Peters, with Jerry at #3

RE - EDWARDS!!!!, then our favorite superhero from that state with only like 300 people

WLB - Spoon with Adkins is #2

MLB - Bear Woods is buried deep

SLB - Nicholas then that old guy

CB - Grimes and Dunta starting, with no indication who is winning between Franks and Owens

I think Quizz is there because he's already got the #3 spot

And were deciding between Smith and Gartrell. But still, it makes you curious why he doesn’t get SOME snaps with the first team…idk I’m still a little nervous.

I hope so

But this is still puzzling, and I want to see more of the steal of the 11 draft.

Neither one of them needs to be on the team IMO.

Johnson runs himself into the ground and Smith has issues holding on to the ball. We can let them both go and take a chance on somebody that will get cut near the end of preseason.

I agree

unless the FO wants to put the one left over on the PS.

He had a few carries with the first team, didn't he?

Pretty sure he had a few.

Yes.

Both Johnson and Smith had few carries with first team. They didn’t do much though.

It's all about Process...

I think so

And if I’m remembering correctly, he looked pretty damn good. Had a 12 yarder and a couple of 5-7 yarders in 5-6 carries.

I think we just ne4ed to scrap Smith and Johnson and start over

They havent done jack since they’ve been with the team. Just how long are they gonna keep giving these 2 chances to make this team?? Seems to me they could cut both of them and bring in somebody that gets cut from another team over the next couple weeks.

" Ryan back to pass, He throws it long, he's going deep to Julio on his first snap! HE CAUGHT IT, HE CAUGHT IT! JJ's dragging the safety into the endzone with him! TOUCHDOWN FALCONS! TOUCHDOWN JULIO JONES!! HIS FIRST ONE IN THE NFL, AND I GOT A FEELING THE FIRST OF MANY MANY MORE TO COME FOLKS!! I GOTTA SAY IT FOLKS - JJ......... IS.......... DY - NO - MITE!!
