The DL talk was the most interesting to me. Cam is back with a chip and a goal this season. There has been a lot of talk about Cam and his contract on fan forums this off-season. Cam wants a new contract at 35 after coming off an injury riddled season. I think we are going to get a special treat of a season from Cam this year.
DeMarvin Leal lost his spot on the roster last season. Showed up to TC out of shape and never caught up. My hope is this season he has that mindset he had his rookie year.
My biggest hope for the DL is this will be the season Keanu Benton breaks out and becomes a star.
I have not been supportive of the choice to bring in Justin Fields. I went back and watched some game film of him after he was signed and was not impressed. The PG guys really talked up his passing ability. We already know his athleticism. My hope is pairing Fields with Arthur Smith plus letting him learn from Russ is going to be a very good combination for that QBs future and for the Steelers.
Training Camp time! The teams get together and the footballs start flying, the sounds of the whistle, coaches barking, pads popping, and just the overall feel of hope for this season. Let's GO!!!
