The last 5 i think could be Gilmore, McLendon, Scott...one of the punters (not sure)....and i think they will keep 7 DBs...so the last cut would have to come from somewhere else..hmmm

Jarrett Crittenton DE is still on the roster ( 6'6 290 DE)

Hanging on until the last minute to get him to the PS

That would be the 5th guy needing cut...I doubt they're worrying about the PS...they liked Bryant better...

I doubt it. Kapinos and Sepulveda cut? Something mixed up there.

I think he means either, or. Just as in the case of Hoke AND McClendon. We obviously need one or the other. I'm not familiar with Torgent, but here is a little something Eddie B put in the PG+


The signs for Sepulveda Thursday night were ominous in Charlotte.

It's not just that Kapinos booted both of his punts 63 yards, one without a return, and had a net average of 59 yards compared to Sepulveda's two that averaged 40.5 gross, 31.5 net. The other bad sign for Sepulveda was the fact Kapinos held the ball for No. 1 kicker Shaun Suisham while Sepulveda held for backup kicker Swayze Watters.

Why would Mike Tomlin not have Sepulveda holding for Suisham unless his job were in serious jeopardy? Sepulveda and Suisham were together for just two games last season and they need all the real-time practice they can get. Last night was the perfect opportunity and they did not do it once. It looked more as though Tomlin were getting Kapinos ready to hold for the regular season as his punter.

Either way, someone will get a good kicker either off the waiver wire or as a free agent next week. And it won't cost them two draft picks to get him.

I think your right.

Crittenton is probably still hiding in the shitter and they are waiting for him to finally come out to give him his walking papers. He cant hide in there forever

I'm not in the closet...

Hopefully they did not let the draft picks come ahead of Warren just because they were draft picks. Hopefully, everyone that makes the team makes it on merit, not to save face for the FO. They can make mistakes too. Hope Warren makes the PS, he looked good for the times I saw him.

FYI.... The owner of SteelersDepot gets all pissed off when people try to promote him. :rolleyes:

So can anyone tell me when the 24 hour period starts that has to pass before PS players can be signed? Is it 24hrs after they were cut or after the final deadline for everyone to get to 53?

Agree. Of course, it wouldn't make sense to bring in undrafted free agents if you were going to keep the draft picks no matter what.

I don't know if I like that Warren cut either. And Sep. a possibility too ??

Sepulveda has been a good luck charm for the Steelers.

I also don't like the Warren cut. He outplayed most of our DBs in the preseason and showed a lot of promise.

I still have an uneasy feeling waking up today after being retired for 3 years. Final cut day. Dreams shattered. Bad day.

Even though Kapinos has punted well, I don't see the Steelers giving up on DSep just yet. If he gets injured again this year, I'd say he's done but for now, give him an entire season to prove his worth to the team.

Besides - I want another year to check out his hiney. :eyebrows:

There could always be a surprise...but I am thinking the five additional cuts may be:

1) TE John Gilmore
2) Kicker Jeremy Kapinos
3) OT Chris Scott
4) DE Jarrett Crittenton
5) DT Steve McLendon


The dark horse may be that Keenan Lewis is cut and we keep Crittenton or McLendon.

Was thinking the exact same actually...I have questions as to whether they will keep Scott.

It's 24 hours after the last team has trimmed their roster to 53
