Steelers Bringing In CB due to Taylor's Injury

[Slapstick]

Crezdon Butler was on a practice squad, but was signed to the Bills active roster last month...

I might give Burnett another shot...now that the CFL season is over...he never worked with Carnell Lake as a coach...

Burnett had a great season in Canada. I guess the fact they are looking means Marcus Van Dyke isn't going to amount to anything

2012: (Edmonton) In 18 games (18 starts) at cornerback Burnett recorded 47 defensive tackles (2 for a loss), 3 special teams tackles, a team-leading 7 knockdowns, a team and league-leading 6 interceptions for 167 yards and 2 touchdowns, including one of which was returned 108 yards for a touchdown, and a fumble recovery returned 44 yards for a touchdown. He also had 28 kickoff returns for 573 yards (longest 43, average 20.5), 52 punt returns for 440 yards, (longest 43, average 8.5) and 3 missed field goal returns for 74 yards (longest 27, average 24.7). He earned Defensive Player of the Week honours in Week 4. Burnett also started the Eastern Semi-Final and had two tackles and two knockdowns. He added three punt returns for 20 yards. Joe was named a Western Division All-Star.

Not sure if that is an accurate assumption to make. The way the NFL is played today, you need 5-6 CB's on the roster. With Taylor down the Steelers have 4. It's not like they are chasing a starting quality CB.

Will say- don't actually mind the idea of B-Mac at this stage. Familiar with the system & could step in and contribute right away.

What more is needed at this point, right?
