Cobbs cut, Davenport signed
Per sirius radio, the Steelers have signed Najeh Davenport and released Patrick Cobbs. I hope that conditional pick was dependent on being on the roster for week one!

We need to get him back before the Colts make him their starter over Addai.

Re: Steelers cut Cobbs
Do the Patriots still get the pick? He was on the opening day roster, right.

Very good pickup for Pittsburgh, IMO.
Willie Parker is *not* a feature back. Yes, he'll start finding holes and getting some nice gains later in the game when the D-line is worn out, but he gets stuffed at the line or tackled for loss FAR too often early one. Last season, I believe he had the highest differential in yards per game vs. above average and below average defenses. When the Pitt oline can manhandle the opposing front 7, he'll rip off big gains. When they can't, he is NOT the kind of back that Pitt needs, who can plow into the line and pick up tought yards and move the chains. Najeh Davenport has had a few good years as a change of pace power-back, and I think he can have similar success behind Pitts' runblocking oline. If used correctly, I think Davenport and Parker can complement each other well. |
Re: Steelers cut Cobbs
Not sure. I know the pick was conditional. Sometimes that is the difference between a 6th round and 7th rund. Sometimes it's a pick or nothing, especially if the guy never plays.
