    Gradkowski needs finger surgery.
    Guy could have been a viable 2nd teir QB like Charlie Batch but like Batch he has the injury bug but worse.

      I'd rather see the Steelers trade for a Kirk Cousins or a Matt Barkley since we have no decent youth at the QB position.
      Obviously the standard is the standard.

        Yep. Try to get Barkley from the Eagles since they seem to like Tebow or vice versa. Vick is as fragile a fine china. No way they get Cousins. That is who Jay Gruden wants to be his starter...politics aside.

          Alright. Then I'm willing to settle for Colt McCoy if Cousins isn't attainable.

            I really don't like this. Vick is not a good QB anymore. He had a 68.3 quarterback rating last year and averaged 5 yards per attempt. He may be the best guy on the scrapheap, but ugh.

              For now they need a body. Watch him throw a bit, let him take the bulk of the snaps in the fourth pre-season game even - allow him to showcase himself in case he actually has something left...and then hit the wire hard as soon as cuts are announced.

                can't replace your vet backup with a young project... unless he's a proven young backup - McCoy is not, IMO. as sucky as Vick is at this stage, he's probably the best bet...

                  My how far the might have fallen... Sad day when Vick comes to town. I can't see this this POS dog killer in a Steelers Uniform. I will never watch this guy play ever. He is right beside Ray Lewis on my most hated list of human beings.

                    Let's be honest with ourselves. If ben goes down and Vick or jones play any significant time we aren't winning anything. It would be draft talk time

                      Cousins sucks... when he had a chance to shine he looked like trash. All these guys are back ups and we aren't winning anything if any of them had to replace Ben.

                        Why would the Steelers play Jarvis Jones at quarterback?

                          His 40 time is probably similar to Ben's
                          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 guess you want me to answer "because he can't play OLB."

                              ...probably closer to Ramon Foster's time
