Big Fan Gerry:  Is Larry O's foot injury a flare up from his previous Lis Franc Injury, or something new?  Thanx
Gerry Dulac
10:11
Ya know, Ray, I still don't have a definite answer on that. But I'm guessing it is, only because of his history w the injury

What’s up with keeping 2 Punters? Will they use one of them (Mann) to trade for a depth position player like a CB?
Gerry Dulac
10:12
Zzzzzzz

Who is WR #3 in your opinion or do you think the snaps will equal out between Robinson & Austin?
Gerry Dulac
10:12
It will just depend on the packages. But I think Robinson, being an accomplished veteran, will get more of the snaps, especially early in the season.

If Steelers get a better offer for Harvin than Mann, do they trade      Percy?  Doesn’t seem to be much difference
Gerry Dulac
10:13
You mean Pressley? And if you don't think there's a difference between the two, you haven't been to camp or paying attention.
Mike

Which cut was the most surprising to you?

When can players be signed to the practice squad?
Gerry Dulac
10:13
Gentry, to a degree.
Sweaty Ken

Hey G! Do you think the Steelers will keep some cap space into the year for the trade deadline? If they are in a good spot, they should use the extra space to improve the team more with Kenny still on rookie deal. Thanks!
Gerry Dulac
10:14
They always do.

Good morning. Any idea on which punter is staying?
Gerry Dulac
10:14
Yes.
Jay

What are your thoughts on Desmond King? Former all-pro, think it’s a good fit for us.
Gerry Dulac
10:18
It can't hurt, which is how I look at it. He's started a lot of games in the NFL.

It's not common practice to rotate lineman in and out so if Moore plays well and there are no injuries, does Jones basically ride the bench and bide his time?
Gerry Dulac
10:18
Broderick Jones will not ride the bench, not as a No. 1 pick
Jeff Lebowski
10:19
Love hearing you back on DVE! What differences do you see between the Khan & Colbert regimes?
Gerry Dulac
10:20
Thanx. I think OK is a little more aggressive trying to add future draft choices. But let's not diss any move or moves KC made. His record while he was here will be tough to match.
Nate from Fort Wayne

Morning, Gerry. Any news on why the Steelers decided to keep 2 punters on their 53 man roster instead of a guy like Tre Norwood or Tanner Muse?
Gerry Dulac
10:20
See above Nate

Canada has taken a lot of heat for his conservative playing, but I’m convinced that was a direct mandate from Tomlin. Why hasn’t he ever stood up for his employee and taken responsibility? Craven if you ask me.
Gerry Dulac
10:21
Actually, he has stood up for him. Many times. And Tomlin has always taken full responsibility for everything.
BPOS

Will we see D. Washington get any red zone targets?  Or targets at all each game?
Gerry Dulac
10:22
I'm sure we will.
Jim_Bow_Dean10:21
Do you remember last season when they lost to the Ravens and a 3rd string QB because they couldn’t stop the run late in the game even though they knew it was coming? Would have been nice to have a Fehoko that day.
10:23
Can't keep em all. They already had two nose-tackle types on the roster -- Keeanu Benton and Montravius Adams. They weren't going to keep three.
Tom M.

There’s been discussion about who plays outside corner and slot corner. What’s the biggest difference in skill set between the two? Is it just speed or something else? Where does King fit in?
Gerry Dulac
10:24
Speed, feet and hip movement, and just better coverage skills. An outside corner doesn't always have help and is usually alone out there. A slot corner operates in traffic
Avoid Lloyd
10:24
Hello, Do you think Gentry might circle back to the Steelers?  Would be good insurance,
Gerry Dulac
10:24
Never say never
The Dude
10:24
Looks like the Steelers could have obtained Joseph or Igbinoghene for another corner. Isn’t either of them better than Pierre?
Gerry Dulac
10:24
Apparently they don't think so
Guest
10:25
Think the Steelers grab an extra safety or offensive lineman? Not a lot of depth behind Minkah and Kazee
Gerry Dulac
10:25
No. They wanted to get a corner and they did
Mark
10:25
Open ended question: your quick thoughts on what Omar has accomplished in the past year?
Gerry Dulac
10:25
I think he has done an outstanding job
Marcus
10:25
Any chance they bring gentry or fehoko back for practice squad?
Gerry Dulac
10:26
I'll be honest, I don't know their practice-squad plans right now. But anything is possible.
