Pros and Cons of Camp

- Limas Sweed is looking good as is free agent receiver Shaun McDonald from the Rams / Lions. Both will be fighting for the no. 3 receiver position.
- Mike Wallace from Ole Miss is a burner, the coaches said he has what other teams call oh shit speed, he is abusing all of the DBs on the team as a vertical threat.
- Undrafted free agent guard from Tenn. / Ramon Foster is turning heads. They like his nasty demeanor, he finishes off blocks and has caused quite a stir amongst the Steelers no.1 defensive team. Good news considering the teams trubbbles along the line the past few years.
- Keenan Lewis a rookie (DB) from Oregon St. possess the size and athleticism of Ike Taylor but has hands. He is rookie so learnin on the field will be his mantra.
- Rashard Mendenhall is looking like the bell cow he was drafted to be.
- Keyaron Fox, a special teams demon is looking flu-int and stout an the "buck" inside linebacker.
- Trai Essex is battling Kraig Urbick (heated comp.)for the RG position now that Darnell Stapleton is out for the season with a knee injury.
- Brett Kiesel is making his usual athletic plays as a stand up linebacker in the 2-4-5 defense.
- Frank "The Tank" Summers, supposed short yardage specialist was blow up by William Gay on a run play. Coaches screamed "put your shoulder pads down!". He listened is knowing his rule and picking up the short yardage. The coaches are scheming for Summers to get the ball in the flats / flare area of the football filed to get him open in spaced for a mismatch to run over little DBs.
- Bruce Davis the second year pass rusher from UCLA looks like "another guy" , too finesse for the Steelers style.
- Tony Hillis comes as big disappointment so far and they need him to provide depth at tackle.
- Center Justin Hartwig is out with a broken toe but the Steelers love Doug Legursky and really, really lurve AQ Shipley at center. Shipley can long snap to boot.
- Lamar Woodley had some swelling in his knee today but further reports are nothing is seriously injured.

Mike Wallace and Keenan Lewis grew up together and played for the same high school football team in Louisiana. They have been friends with one another for most of their lives, and now they were drafted by the same team.
