Is the Steelers’ 2010 roster too old? Or did the team keep too many rookies on it?
It’s somewhat strange when those two opposites both can be argued, but it’s also true that the 53-man roster the Steelers will bring to their Sept. 12 opener against Atlanta at Heinz Field will include 17 thirtysomethings and eight of the 10 players they selected in the draft last April.
The issue of age has been something the Steelers have been hearing ever since holding onto fourth quarter leads became a problem in 2009, and an offseason survey found their average age to be 26.78 years, tied with the Cleveland Browns (http://www.clevelandbrowns.com/) as the second-oldest team in the league. The Washington Redskins (http://www.redskins.com/), at 27.33 years, was the oldest.
