          That may or may not be bad. We never saw him play a snap. I'm sure if the Steelers liked his potential we would have seen him over McClendon called up. They will need to add a DE now to the PS. Perhaps Worthington or maybe Dre Moore.

            I'd give Dre Moore a shot before Worthington. We could always bring Worthington back after the season for another look since no one is going to sign him this year. Moore has some experience and I think he was a system mismatch in Tampa. I always saw him as a 3-4 DE not a 4-3 DT.

            Look at Ryan McBean. Never fit here and went to Denver and did OK.

              ...Steelers had planned to back fill the vacancy on the practice squad by bringing back defensive tackle Doug Worthington, a seventh-round pick of the Steelers in the 2010 draft, the Bucs already have signed him to their practice squad.

                Don't see the match there for Worthington. He was essentially a 3-4 DE in college and now he is on the PS for a 4-3 team. Totally bad location and scheme for him. His agent did him no favors.

                Move now on Dre Moore and see what he offers.

                  Steelers Facebook page...

                  Activity on the Steelers practice squad. Added was LB Chris Ellis, who took Steve McLendon's spot when he was added to the 53-man roster. Then DL Al Woods was signed off the Steelers practice squad by Tampa Bay, which put him on their 53. The Bucs also added DE Al Worthington to the practice squad, and so the Steelers signed DE Sunny Harris to theirs.

                    Hmmm...I didn't think Harris was still practice squad eligible. Good move...I thought Harris showed more promise than Worthington anyway...he seemed to be more stout to me.
                    Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

                    Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

                    We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

                    We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.

                      I had forgotten about Sunny. Probably a good move. Hopefully he can find the whatever that had impressed the Steelers last year that he seemed to lose.
