Season 4 Episode 17: Who will make the Opening Day Roster?

We are currently in the dead part of the NFL Off-Season, the final part of the calendar before training camps begin at the end of next month. So, with that in mind, we decided to have some fun with some early roster predictions. Austin goes through the article he posted and his initial thoughts on who he believes will make the opening day roster for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Later, the boys talk about other trends to look out for this preseason, like Kevin Colbert's knack for acquiring outside players just before the start of the regular season.
