Predict steelers starting roster week 1

[SteelerOfDeVille]

He might outplay him, but no way does DL take Foote off the field cause he's the one out there calling the plays.

Timmons has experience doing it.. pretty sure that transition could happen without much pain...

Agreed. Not to a sixth round rook.

Another exercise might be to see who makes the cut, and where.

My predictions:

Jones - starter
Bell - starter
Wheaton - ST player and 4th WR who sees the field more than our fourth would normally be expected
Thomas - Backup SS
Jones - 3rd QB this year, second string QB next year
Hawthorne - fighting it out with Brown and Van Dyke for the fourth and fifth CB spots. Just as likely to be one of those spots as relegated to PS
Brown - I'd say that Sanders, Antonio, and Wheaton are pretty much locks. Cotch would be the next best thing. Will have to fight it out with Cotch, Plax, and Gilreath to avoid the PS.
V. Williams - Has as good a shot as any sixth rounder should. There are openings, and the guys he will battle with are not standouts. Foote and Timmons locked at ILB. Two spots left with Sly and McFadden being the toughest competition.
N. Williams - training camp body who is a long shot at best
