Someone get this guy some money
Jason

In your opinion, what is the percentage of a chance that fields in named starter for week one?
Gerry Dulac
10:39
Same percentage as Bill in LA thinks Pickett is the answer
Troy
10:39
Even if it’s not Aiyuk, are we adding outside wide receiver help?
Gerry Dulac
10:39
Maybe
Guest
10:39
Do the Steelers have a better chance trading for Aiyuk or just signing a receiver that gets released from another team after the pre-season?
Gerry Dulac
10:40
Right now I would say it's the latter
Guest

Do you think Roman Wilson will ne available to play week one or is it possible he begis the season on IR?
Gerry Dulac
10:40
No, he won't be on IR. He's getting there but it's tough when a rookie doesn't get to play in any preseason games.

Hey Gerry…I’m not a fan of the new kickoff rule and would like to know if you think it’s here to stay or will be revoked?  Thanks.
Gerry Dulac
10:41
I'm with you. I don't like it either, but I think at best it will be tweaked, not revoked.

Does Roman Wilson play at all this year?
Gerry Dulac
10:41
Yes

Hi Gerry - Are we looking at “Russell sucks” chants in the ‘Burgh early in the season? How does this help?
Gerry Dulac
10:42
Nobody has suggested that will be the case, at least, until now.
J D

Gerry,  if the Steelers don't make the playoffs this year but still win 8 or 9 games, will they do a major trade to select in the top 5 in next year's draft for a QB?
Gerry Dulac
10:43
Let's wait till January to answer that. But I don't think you will see any trade into the top 5 under any circumstance.

Morning Gerry. Assuming no trades or additions happen for WR room, have you seen evidence at practice of getting the tight ends more involved? I’m thinking they are going to have to really focus on getting 88 a lot of targets consistently to help out Pickens. Thoughts?
Gerry Dulac
10:43
I agree. He needs to be more involved, and I think he will be.
JC in NY

Hi Gerry - all this talk about adding a WR and CB, to me the DL is more of a potential issue that could plague this team if the  aging starters don’t hold up. So you see this as a sneaky need position that could be addressed by Khan before the start of the season?
Gerry Dulac
10:43
Bingo

Gerry…1st team o-line play has been below the line…..3 tackles nicked…rookie at center….and all the lack  of offense and scoring is is Russell Wilson’s fault?.. how can anyone even evaluate our quarterback play behind THIS line at this point ?…..
Gerry Dulac
10:44
Correct. Let's give it some time
BPOS
10:44
Any inside info on whether Warren will be read for the season opener or might he start on the IR?   And given his status, Tomlin won't risk playing Najee against the Lions would he?
Gerry Dulac
10:44
He will not be on IR. He could be ready for atlanta
Bubby B
10:44
What do you make of Broderick’s issues this preseason?
Gerry Dulac
10:45
I think his elbow is bothering him
Zell
10:45
Has Dan Moore looked good through camp?
Gerry Dulac
10:45
Dan Moore always looks good
Guest

Excluding Brock Purdy and Kenny Pickett, which QB from the 2022 draft class would you rate the highest, and would you like to see that player have a chance to start again?
Gerry Dulac
10:45
I hate to tell you, I can't. Not without fibbing
Adam in ATL
10:46
Hi Gerry. Is the OL being asked to block differently in the run game (zone vs power) in Art's system? Can't wait for the 8th, I'll be watching from a seat instead of working a concessions bar at Merces-Benz!
Gerry Dulac
10:46
No, I don't believe so. And enjoy the view in Atlanta.
Her Big Nic k
10:46
Gerry, can I really deploy Harrison's rip moves being about 50 lbs lighter and about 1/3 as ornery?
Gerry Dulac
10:46
Gonna be tough
Roland P.
10:47
Gerry, Do you think there is any chance of the Steelers bringing Patrick Peterson back with Bishop being injured?
Gerry Dulac
10:47
Well, I don't Peterson is a slot corner. He is a zone corner
NY Steel
10:47
Do you tihnk Wilson/Fields are an upgrade over what Mason Rudolph could have done this year?
Gerry Dulac
10:48
We will find out. I think it will be hard to duplicate what Mason did the final three games -- average 27 points ppg and go 3-0.
NY Steel
10:48
Were teh last 7 years under Noll worse than the last 7 years under Tomlin, about the same, or better?
