    Great signing. A true Steeler type.
    How is it possible to have the best owner, best front office, best gm, best HC, good/great drafts every year and good FA acquisitions every year, but only have 3 playoff wins in 14 years?

                He’ll fit right in then.

                  Enough of this playing around. It's time to unleash "The British Beast". Scotland-Williamson is 6'9" / 274. Find him a spot!

                    I heard somewhere (Terrible Podcast?) that once you designate a guy as the bonus practice squad guy through the international player program (or whatever it's called), he has to stay on the practice squad all year.

                    Don't know if it's true though.

                      I see so many people respond with "or something" when the choice is "one thing or something"

                      If you had to choose between Peanut Butter or Jelly, and you preferred Jelly, would you say, "or Jelly"? No, you'd say "Jelly"!

                      So, in response to the one who fixes Fords, your response should be, "I think he's something" !

                        O K we can go with that ( until proven differently)

                          When NE put their FB James Develin on IR recently, they replaced him by bringing up their international British practice squad dude (I think his name is Jakob something).
                          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 think that would make more sense.

                            Maybe you can bring them up but can't get the bonus spot again they year?

                              Vance McDonald has shoulder sprain

                              Posted by Charean Williams on September 24, 2019, 9:36 PM EDT

                              Steelers tight end Vance McDonald has a sprained shoulder, Ian Rapoport of the NFL reports. McDonald “won’t have an extended absence,” according to Rapoport, but McDonald will miss some time.

                              McDonald was spotted wearing a sling Tuesday, and the Steelers traded for a tight end Tuesday night. They dealt a fifth-round pick in 2020 to the Seahawks for Nick Vannett.

                              McDonald made 10 catches for 88 yards and two touchdowns this season before leaving early in Sunday’s loss. In 15 games last season, McDonald caught 50 passes for 610 yards and four touchdowns.

                              McDonald has never played a full, 16-game season.

                              Xavier Grimble should see more time this week. He played 38 snaps against the 49ers with McDonald injured.

                              Rookie Zach Gentry made his NFL debut Sunday, getting 10 offensive snaps.
