The Steelers have signed former Jaguars OT Guy Whimper. Wow (as in not the good kind of wow). The guy is terrible. I take it they simply want a cheap backup with veteran experience. Was also used as an eligible receiver in the jumbo package. I hope they have no delusions that this guy can start for any length of time like they did with Jonathan Scott. (shivers).

The Steelers also signed UDFA LB/S Terence Garvin. To make room for Garvin and Whimper, the Steelers released UDFAs C Ivory Wade and NT Anthony Rashad White.

I think some of our UDFA linemen may have a better shot than Wimperer. And why do we need more OLBs? I'd role with Robinson, McFadden, and Carter at the bottom of the LB depth board.

I figured Garvin would be an inside linebacker on the right side in the mold of Timmons and Spence.

Yeah read a little bit into him. He seems like a poor man's Sean Spence. Maybe he can develop into the nickel backer role Spence was suppose to man? Hopefully the guy knows how to cover and close in on the ball carrier quickly. Or at lest be very effective on ST.

Anthony Rashad White was waived injured. He has since cleared waivers and is now on the Steelers injured reserve. He doesn't count against the 90-man roster.

I'm pretty sure you can't sign a player on IR. And right now we don't need White with 3 NTs already on the roster, not enough snaps in practice to go around.

Hi COC and steelersfan4life. Just checking in to see how Jarvis Jones is doing.
I had a really big crush on him pre-draft, I really wanted the Rams to draft him. How's he doing?
