So, the Steelers are unsure of Howard and they want to show some things before they trade him. Nothing unusual about that. 6th round pick that 32 teams passed on 5 times. McCarthy is good but, he ain't a miracle worker. Just trying to polish it up a little bit before going to market.

Who in the name of Mike Tomlin said or suggested they are going to trade him??

Can we all STOP acting like Mason has been victimized by this organization? All respect to you Gerry, you’ve lead the charge on this one. He’s had ample opportunities with Pittsburgh, Tennessee and 30 other teams that have copious amounts of tape on him. Great guy, great teammate and absolutely no moxy, energy or anything that would scare an opponent or motivate a team. He’s been given multiple shots and MILLIONS of dollars by Pittsburgh. If anyone fears releasing him because the younger ones can’t outperform him, they might as well get rid of the whole room and start over again. Again, I had high hopes for him, but he’s just blah. Time to move on.

Mason is a very good NFL backup QB who has proven he can come into the game at any time and be productive, much less a liability. Has anybody looked around the league at some of the backup QBs? You talk about blah. Mason is a pro's pro. He knows it's a business. He knows how things can sometimes work out. Teams would be fortunate to have him as a backup

Who starts first exhibition game ?
Gerry Dulac
10:46
It doesn't matter. But it won't be 8 or 2

Seems to me that if anyone makes a trade for a Steelers QB, it will be Rudolph for a late round pick?  Howard won't be traded, but might be cut.
Gerry Dulac
10:47
Correct. And they might not trade Rudolph. They might give him opportunity to sign where he wants

As someone who has never met any of these men, who is the most likable of the three, Tomlin, Cowher or new head coach MM?
Gerry Dulac
10:48
They are all cuddly teddy bears
Buddy Dial

The DB signed from Tampa, will he start opposite JPJ ?
Gerry Dulac
10:49
That's why they gave him the money they did. And it's Jamel Dean

Gerry how did Ben Skrowronek look on Monday also is there a chance that Him or Payton Wilson are named special teams captain with Killebrew gone
Gerry Dulac
10:49
Probably a very good possibility
Buddy Dial

Can former players be reached via mail through the Southside practice facility  ?
Gerry Dulac
10:50
Maybe, but I'm not sure. You can try

Trump wants less streaming NFL games, NFL days 87 percent of the games are nit streaming.  Are we heading for WWF pay for view for Select NFL games

The greed of the NFL -- what they ask their fans to do -- is astounding to me

It seems with all the media rotation on all the headlines with AR, the draft, Michael Pittman and Dowdle that one item gets consistently left out. The potential impact of Brisker. How will he fit with the secondary and where does that leave Ramsey? I’m intrigued and excited about Briskers addition to the team, I feel he could be a sleeper/dark horse player that will surprise a lot of fans! What’re your thoughts?
Gerry Dulac
10:51
I think there's probably a good reason why it gets overlooked.
Ryan from Ohio
10:51
I think it’s funny that a coach who disliked the media so much has become part of the media.
Gerry Dulac
10:52
Ironic is what it is.

How did the players look opening their playbooks?  That's no more ridiculous a question than asking about progress at OTAs.
Gerry Dulac
10:52
Now you're on to something.
Oh, I forgot to mention 58 among the number of unofficial retired jerseys
Peter
10:54
What about 7 unofficially retired? Or does that not happen until he gets into HOF?
Gerry Dulac
10:55
He's another of course. It's just that it hasn't been that long since he retired
Tommy in Florida

As compared to last year, how do you think our wr's room looks this year? Do you think we'll be bringing in another veteran? Thanks for you thoughts, Gerry.
Gerry Dulac
10:55
It is significantly upgrade with Pittman and Bernard. No need for anymore

Was just thinking 58 might be one haha thanks Gerry for answering my queries! Appreciate it, well- pencil me down for being a Brisker believer! Haha thanks again
Gerry Dulac
10:56
I think Brisker could be a good add, but I don't think it's going to be a difference-maker

47?
Gerry Dulac
10:56
They actually have given out Blount's number several times, but have since stopped
10:57
I think the last one was Scott Shields, if you remember him.
JB
10:57
And 59
Gerry Dulac
10:57
No, they've given out his number too, though not in a long time
Tommy in Florida
10:57
My guy 86?
Gerry Dulac
10:57
Too soon to tell
