Who is our #5 WR going to be? Rainey?

Awesome.

Happy we kept Robinson, he has a motor and will be great as a situational pass rusher.

Kind of surprised we kept Beachum, as bad as Essux is, Beachum looked horrendous out there.

Also happy to see Woods make it, he looked really good in preseason, hopefully we can sneak Bryant onto the practice squad.

Lots of changes this year. Good timing.

When Decastro goes on Ir they will sign Essex again.

"Ed Bouchette: Another player will be added to the roster on Monday when the #Steelers designate DeCastro for the deisgnated IR spot. Had to make 53 first"

I agree about Bryant, he looked solid! Who do you think will take Decastro's spot. Btw, we have to do this, because in order to remove him from IR later on in season, you cannot place them on IR til Monday. My guess is Gilreath or Derrick Williams.

I hope they can keep Maze on the practice squad.

Initial take:

Only 4 WRs? Guess Rainey will be "dual hatted"

Unless I miscounted, three UDFAs made it...Golden, Butler and Robinson...that's awesome! Of course, our 7th Rd WR didn't, which is too bad.

Where's Spence? Was he already IR'd?

Essex is officially gone, even if it is only for one day!

I guess Beachum must have shown something in practice, because he hasn't shown squat on the field from what I've been hearing. Versatility matters I guess, even if you aren't very good at any of the positions.
