Tomlin likely will tell us how he'll approach it when he has his news conference on Thursday.

Do you see Derek Watt staying on the team?  It seems an awful lot of money for a FB used few and far between and special teams?
Ray Fittipaldo

Yes I can see it and I can see Connor Heyward as the No. 3 TE.

What of playing a 3-3-5, since they only have one inside linebacker?
Ray Fittipaldo

They were using a lot of dime in practice on Monday.

I know a lot comments about how bad the inside linebackers were on Saturday, but if you had TJ, Cam, Aluhu, and Fitz playing, I'm guessing they would have looked a little better?

You might have a point, but that doesn't excuse how they played in coverage.

Kendrik green squats 700 lbs, how does he get pushed around so easily? Is it his first step? Too slow off the ball?
Ray Fittipaldo

He has short arms. You can squat 1,000 pounds, but if a strong DL with long arms can get his hands on Green's chest it's over.

what do they get for mason if he’s traded? 4th? 7th?
Ray Fittipaldo
12:42
Depends on how desperate a team is to get him. I think they'd do well to get a fifth or a sixth from a team.

how much of a project is mark robinson? Is he big enough to move inside?
Ray Fittipaldo
12:43
Mark Robinson does play inside linebacker. But he's a rookie, and he's still learning how to play LB after playing a lot of RB in college.

should we read into Harvin III not punting?
Ray Fittipaldo
12:44
Nothing. He'll punt this week.

I completely understand that not all the WRs can be kept on the 53 man roster--Seems to me, front office shoulda waited a bit longer before committing to D Johnson contract, bc I think there looks like some cheaper talent that will not have a shot in Pittsburgh--I sure hope ONE of the "no-namers" makes the final roster---Sims would be a good starting point--ur thoughts?

They have some nice depth at the position, but let's slow down before we compare any of them to Diontae Johnson.
