Steelers News: Bell, Brown, Dupree
By Kim Myers
The Steelers are officially on summer vacation as the offseason workout program wrapped up and they won’t come back together until reporting to training camp later this month.
Steelers season never really ends for Steeler nation so while the Steelers players get their minds and bodies right to embark on the 2016 regular season we’ll be busy looking for mentions of your Black & Gold so we’ve got you covered. Here’s your Steelers Morning Huddle for Tuesday, July 5th.
Do-over
The 2013 NFL Draft was dominated early on by offensive linemen as three out of the top four picks were offensive tackles but, since hindsight is always 20/20 let’s see who those teams should’ve taken instead of those tackles.

Steelers running back
was passed over by every team as the Steelers didn’t pick him up until the second round but
as versatile as him doesn’t come along every day.
If he was a first round pick for the Steelers, they’d be able to pick up the fifth-year option on his rookie contract and not have to worry about how many millions he’s rapping about wanting in his new deal until next summer at least.
Play responsibly
Tweeting is hard all around. You have to be funny but not offensive. You have to show that you’re always focused on what you’re supposed to be doing and you can’t tweet anything that anyone can take the wrong way. Or you could just not give a crap and be like Antonio Brown.
Have a safe 4th of July and show up to work tomorrow with the same amount of fingers as the last time they saw you

I'm not throwing shade or calling anyone out. Just saying be safe while acknowledging a common injury if you're not careful. C'mon now.

Have a safe 4th of July. Play a game with your friends called "Don't Let The DD Drink".

Pick someone to drive and don't let them drink.
Have a safe 4th of July. Tying a bottle rocket to your neighbors dogs tail is on the list of bad ideas today

Be like Antonio Brown.
Linebacker decisions
We’re anxiously awaiting the start of training camp and one of the things that will be decided over the course of camp and throughout the season is the development and future of the Steelers’ linebacker corps.
Conor Orr questions whether second-year linebacker Bud Dupree will earn more playing time this season as he splits outside duties with Arthur Moats and how the other side will hold up with Jarvis Jones and James Harrison.

If all goes to plan the Steelers will be hosting a parade in February and we’ll all laugh about how worried we were about such silly things.
