Joins a long list of guys that caused preseason excitement, hung around for a bit, and then wandered off into the sunset.

No gold jacket for Neon Keion?

man, what happened?
he was touted by so many here as a great pick

[Fire Goodell]

Ola Adeniyi was better

man, what happened?

he was selected in the 7th round of the 2017 Draft.

how would you know whether or not many here touted Adams as a great pick then or not since you only joined this message board in Feb 2019? :noidea:

I thought R J Prince looked athletic enough to maybe be the next UDFA interior lineman to replace Finney when his deal is up. I guess not.

Wonder if he is the kinda player they told to stay by the phone and he gets a call in a few months after they look at some others?

So the Steelers signed


QB Delvin HodgesOT Damian Prince
LB Tuzar Skipper
DE Henry Mondeaux
DT Greg Gilmore

Released


LB Keion AdamsDE Jay Hayes
DT Chris Nelson
OL R.J. Prince,
QB Brogan Roback
WR Ka’Raun White

They also signed veteran WR Johnny Holton who is a vertical threat.

Curious about the Gilmore pick, was considered as one of the Steelers better FA signings after the draft last year. Sometimes failure is the best medicine for underachievers

[BlackAndGold]

They must have liked what they seen out of Sutton Smith and Tuzar Skipper(already a fan by the name alone) to release Adams.


Also, with Dupree, Watt, Chickillo and the highly praised Ola it was a tough hill to climb for Keion.

Good. Beats paying a guy for nothing.
