PITTSBURGH (AP) -- Marcus Gilbert and Doug Legursky's left shoulders appear to be OK. Maybe. Jonathan Scott's left ankle remains tender but not terrible. Probably.

There has to be O-line free agents who are better than what we have. A lot of veteran O-lineman got released in the off-season. Guys like Rich Seubert, Shaun O'hara, Shawn Andrews, Leonard Davis, Nick Kaczur not to mention Starks and Flozell could be better than what we have.
