*NOTES
- Best camp battle: backup O-line with five undrafted rooks M.Farrell, J.Madsden, I.Wade and M.Golic Jr, C.Hubbard, fighting for 2 spots. This battle may well come down to better ability to play multiple positions, and all of them have played more than one position...
- Assuming no injuries on the OL, expect the team to finally cut ties with Max
- Expect Curtis McNeal to replace Stephens-Howling next year if the team is able to hold on to him throughout the season.
- Expect another Day 2 WR to be drafted in 2014, whether Sanders is resigned or not. While Sanders has said he would like to retire a Steeler, he also understands it's a business. He also said Mike Wallace LOVES the Steelers organization (I caught 5/1 interviews on ESPN2)
- If Spence cannot return in 2014, expect another early-to-mid-round ILB in 2014 as Foote will be in his last year, as will Sylvester
