Gerry, What roster moves (keep or cut) most surprised you?
Gerry Dulac
10:19
None really surprise me at all. But I do think they kept some players who are the same guy -- Watt-Heyward and Olszewski-Sims. That was a little surprising

Good morning, Gerry.  What current projected starter / quasi-starter do you expect to not be starting by week 10?  On the other side of the coin, what current back-up / practice squad player do you expect to be starting by week 10?  Please do not pick the low hanging fruit and identify D Bush and the ILBs or the QBs.
Gerry Dulac
10:20
Ok, then don't ask me

Any chance we try to acquire Teven Jenkins from the Bears? Apparently he hasn’t been happy at guard, is a natural tackle and the Bears just claimed Leatherwood. Jenkins is former 39th overall pick, maybe like a Minkah early season deal.

You mean give up a No. 1 pick to change your O-line right before the season? After they invested all that money in the Oline? I'm not sure that's going to happen, though it sounds nice. But, as we have seen, you never know

What is realistic trade compensation for Rudolph?  4th rd pick too much to ask for?
Gerry Dulac
10:22
They are not trying to trade him. But, for them to do so, it would have to be a really good offer from another team, like a 2 or even 3, and I don't see that happening.

Do you see this Oline being any better than last year?
Gerry Dulac
10:22
Can't be much worse, even though what we have seen in the preseason hasn't exactly been encouraging

If Moore continues to be the starting LT, than the coaching staff has failed- Is the acquisition of Davis that much better than the current OL?
Gerry Dulac
10:23
No. Davis is backup, that's all. He's not the answer
DJ Persichetti

Did the Steelers make the right moves for the O-Line ?
Gerry Dulac
10:23
That's what we'll find out starting Sept 11 in Cincy

Have any current Steelers players played in the Super Bowl
Gerry Dulac
10:23
No

Hi Gerry..don't get the games Coach T is playing by not naming his starter..seems silly don't you think?
Gerry Dulac
10:24
Agreed.

Gerry, did I really once utter that Chuks is better on the left?  Or do some yinzers have false memories?
Gerry Dulac
10:25
The Steelers think he is a better left tackle than right tackle. But I don't have a problem with Chuks. However, they must think Dan Moore is better at LT than Chuks would be.

Over under 8 wins?
Gerry Dulac
10:25
Not under
Jeff

If the Steelers had a solid O-line would Pickett be starting week 1?
Gerry Dulac
10:25
Has nothing to do with it. I don't think they want to throw him to the wolves right away. Give Trubisky a chance, OK?

Hi Gerry!  Thanks for the chats.  How quick do you think Coach Tomlin will be to [pull the trigger in Kenny over Mitch?
Gerry Dulac
10:26
He won't be quick at all. He doesn't believe in a short leash, unless it is absolutely necessary

With all the QB’s that we’re cut why not trade MR and get a draft pick?   There are quite a few QB’s that we’re cut that could fill that role.  I thought MT did not live in his fears.  Thanks.
Gerry Dulac
10:26
Reallly? Like who? Who is better out there than MR, as you call him???

Good morning Gerry. Are you a little surprised that Tyler Vaughns wasn’t at least kept on practice squad? He seems like he’s always making plays, and they already new what they had in Cody White.
Gerry Dulac
10:28
I really liked what I saw of Tyler Vaughns. But I don't think they wanted to keep three rookie receivers on the roster.
Serra

Can you give your top 5 Steeler defenders of all time. Any current players have a shot to crack it? Thanks.
Gerry Dulac
10:28
That's a lengthy list of Hall of Famers, to be sure. The only 3 who could are Heyward, Watt and Minkah.
Pat M
10:28
Gerry, who has to take the blame for the regression of LT DM? Did he not hit the weights in the off season? Is he not coachable? Was he WAY mis-evaluated to begin with? (spoiler hint: the probable answer)
Gerry Dulac
10:29
I'm not ready to give up on Dan Moore. And, right now, neither are they.

Good Morning Mr. Dulac!  I hope you have a fantastic Labor Day Holiday.  My final QB ? of the pre-season.  How much of Mason Rudolph's game participation levels came from "We know what we have here"?
Gerry Dulac
10:30
That's exactly what it was. They've had 4 full years to evaluate him. They know what he can do. All their evaluation centered around -- do we think Trubisky and Pickett give us more than what we know we have in Mason?
OK kids, sorry, we're out of time. Gotta run. See you next week
