There is no way this is right. Dupree and Jones start over BOTH Harrison and Moats?

I don't see this happening. Anyone know the real depth chart?

These guys usually are spot on.

Harrison ain't starting? Right. Like anyone is better.

Porter and others have said that Harrison's snaps will be "limited" and "managed". That ain't what you do with the "starter" it is what you do with a specialized role player.

Not that Jones is better, but that no one cares if he stays fresh. Likely Jones is the nominal "starter" with Harrison coming in w/ a pass rush package.

Dupree may very well work his way into that role over Moats as well. In the Packers game, Harrison and Dupree were on the field together I bit (@ least I think that actually happened) and it seemed to "work".

Run the legs off Jones into a brick wall. He won't get a second contract from the Steelers.

I just don't know how you miss this badly. If he flirts with 10 sacks and a few forced fumbles I guess I'd be OK. Harrison took a long time, but somehow I don't get the same vibe from JJ.

I don't get it either. JOnes' sub-par athleticism was obvious to anyone who wanted to look for it.

I hope I'm wrong and the sum is more than the parts with Jones, but I simply don't see it.

This depth chart appears to be the most updated one that I could find, but even then there are some inconsistencies: http://subscribers.footballguys.com/apps/depthchart.php#pit

Shows Jones/Moats as outside starters.

IMO, I don't think they know who to start. I wouldn't be surprise if they screw with the chemistry of the team throughout the game.

I think that would be a mistake. No one sets the edge like James does. He's much much more than a pass rusher.

Jarvis Jones should not be starting. He has yet to earn it, but as usual the coaches feel draft status trumps skill. Should Jones be on the team at all? If he was a 5th round pick would be still be here? Chickillo showed more ability than Jones.
