Steel Balls

Depth Chart updated 11/5.

Pouncey is on IR/dfr. Eligible to practice after week 6, play after week 8, if his health allows him to do so.

This chart is a copy of the one posted by the Steelers.There are inconsistencies in the way that some players are used and their spot on the depth chart.  For instance, you might get the sense that Boykin would play over Cockrell or even Blake. Hubbard is also listed higher than Legursky on the depth chart, but has been a healthy scratch in every game. McCullers was also listed as probable Monday and was inactive at game time.

Lowest tier guys and others eliminated by roster moves, below the break:

Note, July 7 description:  38 S Ian Wild – The Steelers list him at 6′, 205 lbs. Winnipeg listed him at 208. There is a rumor that he’s up to 220 and is going to play ILB. I say, where? He’s behind Timmons, Shazier, Williams, Spence, Garvin and Zumwalt. Where is he going to fit and how are they going to get him reps? If this kid does anything at all in camp, and then gets cut, he will be the guy that fans are convinced will be claimed on waivers and become a Pro Bowler somewhere else.
