Hakeem Butler sure looks good in those XFL highlights! What’s his problem, why has he never stuck on an NFL team?
Gerry Dulac
10:05
Whatever the reason, that's why he's in the XFL
Johnny Sinns

What kind of draft pick would the Steelers need to get offered to trade Mitch Trubisky?
Gerry Dulac
10:05
A No. 1. They are not planning to trade him.
Bill

Do the Steelers owners or coaches ever contact you to ask your opinion on a player or situation for your feedback? Or do you just hope they read your articles and chats?
Gerry Dulac
10:06
Hold on, Tomlin is calling....
Harry Callas
10:06
If the Steelers sign Kwon Alexander  what kind of role will he have on defense?
Gerry Dulac
10:06
Backup. Rotational player.
Scott

The WR room still looks kinda thin - any chance they sign a veteran before camp to beef it up or after cuts this summer?
Gerry Dulac
10:06
Yeah, they already did. His name is Allen Robinson.
Barry Berkman
10:06
Gerry, If you owned the Steelers would you give HCMT his regularly scheduled extension this summer or would you want him to at least win a playoff game first? 6 years and counting is a long stretch by any reasonable "standard".
Gerry Dulac
10:07
Me? I want to see a playoff victory instead of playoff embarrassments in the past six years.

Will the Steelers take Witherspoon cap savings and use it to sign another veteran-like an edge rusher? Justin Houston. Jadeveon Clowney. Etc.
Gerry Dulac
10:08
I think those guys would require a whole lot more than the $2.5m they are saving with Witherspoon

Omar Khan told the Fan that Chandon Sullivan and Duke Dawson were the top options at slot corner. Gerry say it ain’t so! Is this really the plan?
Gerry Dulac
10:11
It's not so. It is with Sullivan, that's why he was brought in. But Dawson is just a body. Hasn't played in three years

Who in your opinion is the best Steelers linebacker since 1990?
Gerry Dulac
10:12
Joey Porter. Chad Brown. James Farrior. Ryan Shazier. TJ Watt. Pick one
Mr. Wick
10:12
What position is biggest area of weakness as it sits today?  I'm thinking inside linebacker since its all new faces.  Backfield a close second but feel more confident in the talent than at the inside.
Gerry Dulac
10:12
I would say you are pretty darn accurate
Tim
10:12
I know it is early but you hit on warren last year as a ufa who may make the team.  Homerun there Gerry.
Gerry Dulac
10:13
Touch 'em all...

I liked how the Steelers used Jaylen Warren last year and would like to see more usage of multiple backs this year to spare wear and tear on Najee in a 17 game season. Do you think Coach T has moved on from the philosophy of running his primary back "until the wheels come off"?
Gerry Dulac
10:13
I think he showed that last year with Warren. And it made Harris a better player.
Tim
10:13
Any thoughts on player or position that may do the same from our undrafted pool this year?
Gerry Dulac
10:14
Let me get a look at 'em in OTAs first, at least
Mark
10:14
While “his story is still being written”, in your opinion does TJ already have a HoF resume?  If not, what more does he need to accomplish to add to it?
Gerry Dulac
10:14
No. More longevity is needed. Otherwise, it's the James Harrison saga

Where do you feel Kenny #8 ceiling falls, it seems the Steelers are all in on him being a superstar QB, but when you hear the so called experts talk they dont seem so sold on him. I believe Tomlin and Co feel he can be a top tier QB in the league the way they are building the team what say you ??
Gerry Dulac
10:16
The Steelers are all in on him for right now, but referring to him as being a potential superstar QB is extreme early hyperbole. Now, do I think he can be a winning, top-tier QB, yes I do. But I need to see more the second time around.
Jim
10:16
Does Hakeem Butler make the 53 and will he get more than 20% snaps on offense or do you see him as strictly special teams IF he makes it.
Gerry Dulac
10:16
No

Can you explain the different skillsets required to play ‘boundary’ vs. ‘slot’ corner? You often hear players are strictly one or the other and rarely can do both.
Gerry Dulac
10:17
Slot corners are not required to defend the field as much as outside corners. They typically have to be tougher and more aggressive near the line of scrimmage.

Gerry who do you think will be the stating 5 O-line for the Steelers game 1 vs. 49ers?
Gerry Dulac
10:18
Jones, Seumalo, Cole, Daniels, Okorfaor
Jim_Bow_Dean

Do you think they will add veteran inside and outside linebackers before camp? Seems like that’s all this roster is missing.
Gerry Dulac
10:18
Maybe an inside guy for more depth. But that's what they will find out in camp.
Peter
10:19
Is the Steelers starting slot/nickel DB currently on the roster? It seems to be a glaring need.
Gerry Dulac
10:20
Tough to say because injuries could change that. But the plan right now is to have Chandon Sullivan play that role.
