The Steelers' leave me shaking my head on some of these signings...

Starks would have been fine, and power run blocking approaches will still be very prevalent within the Steelers offense. I'm not buying that we will not miss Starks, Lewis, and Harrison. We will miss all three, at least when the season starts IMO.

Let's see how the season pans out before we take every little preseason article, written by media in a kiss up attempt and to guarantee maximum access to the team during the season, so literally. I believe we will see more outside zone blocking...at the least. The best thing about LeVeon Bell is his broad skill set. He can run with power, vision, and good feet...he also is a very good receiver out of the backfield, and at least potentially, can be a very good pass blocker (this latter skill has been improving every day in camp, at least according to those objective articles


By the way, I don't know what it is about Willie Colon...the emdia loves to fawn over him despite how poorly he plays. Yes, he is a scapper, and better suited to guard, but he was getting abused by Suh....and committed multiple penalties in his short time on the field for the Jets. A better question is how the Steelers kept this guy at tackle for so long....6 freakin' 3 and looks over 335 at least.
