Quarterbacks (3) – Ben Roethlisberger, Bruce Gradkowski, Landry Jones – This needs no explanation with Roethlisberger taking the Starting job and Gradkowski and Jones fighting for #2.
Running Backs (4) – Le’Veon Bell, LaRod Stephens-Howling, Isaac Redman, Baron Batch – I think Dwyer will be traded or cut by the start of the year as Redman offers more on 3rd down complemented by Batch and Stephens-Howling who will also be a candidate for special teams.
Full Back (1) – Will Johnson – Should beat of David Johnson with his superior quality in the passing game.
Wide Reciever (5) Antonio Brown, Emmanuel Sanders, Jerricho Cotchery, Markus Wheaton, Plaxico Burress – This is going to be one of the most interesting position battles, Although Gilreath has the returning ability I think Plaxico’s height will win him the battle in an otherwise very small receiving corp.
Tight End (3) – Heath Miller, Matt Spaeth, David Paulson – I think Heath will be fit therefore only needing 3 players the others pick themselves.
Offensive Line (9) – Mike Adams (T), Kelvin Beachum (T/G), Marcus Gilbert (T), David DeCastro (G), Ramon Foster (G), Maurkice Pouncey (C), Nik Embernate (G), Mike Golic, Jr. (G/T/C) Guy Whimper (T) – Mike Golic, Jr. is the best undrafted free agent who also provides depth across the board with potential to play Guard, Tackle and Centre. Nik Embernate should also get in with free agent Guy Whimper also getting a place
Nose Tackle (3) – Steve McLendon, Alameda Ta’amu, Hebron Fangupo – I think it’s 50-50 on whether Hampton will come back for 1 year, I went for him not coming back with Ta’amu continuing his development behind McLendon.
Defensive End (4) – Brett Keisel, Steve McLendon, Ziggy Hood, Cameron Heyward, Al Woods. – Same as last year and with McLendon being able to play DE than this is all the Steelers need.
Inside Linebacker (4) – Lawrence Timmons, Larry Foote, Marshall McFadden, Vince Williams – I see Vince Williams being one of the steals of this draft and I see him beating Stevenson Sylvester to a place on the roster.
Outside Linebacker (4) – LaMarr Woodley, Jason Worilds, Jarvis Jones, Chris Carter – Adrian Robinson is out as for me he doesn’t contribute enough especially as he doesn’t offer anything on special teams.
Cornerback (6) – Ike Taylor, Cortez Allen, William Gay, Curtis Brown, Terry Hawthorne, DeMarcus Van Dyke – It may seem like a lot of Cornerbacks but William Gay can double up as a safety and Brown and Hawthorne will do well in Special Teams.
Safety (4) – Ryan Clark, Troy Polamalu, Robert Golden, Shamarko Thomas – A good solid Safety Corp boosted by the addition of Shamarko Thomas
Special Teams (3) – Brian Moorman, Drew Butler, Greg Warren – I’m going for experience with Brian Moorman getting the place on my roster he’s been reliable for years and I think he can still do the job
