The Pittsburgh Steelers need to have their roster set by 4:00 PM Eastern Time Saturday. Here is my final stab at which players will make the final roster in 2020.

The Steelers have a lot of important decisions to make today, as NFL teams must cut their rosters from 80 players all the way down to 53. While 16 players can eventually be singed back to the practice squad after they clear waivers, the other 11 players will be looking for employment elsewhere this year.

It may not seem like a big deal for the Steelers to cut a player who will eventually wind up on their practice squad, but it’s important to remember that they could be losing out on years of a contract. While we can accurately pick a vast majority of players who will make the roster in 2020, there are others who are certainly on the bubble of making the team.

Over the past few months, I’ve made several 53-man roster predictions, but none have been exactly the same. Without being able to attend training camp this year, I’ve been getting my information from second-hand sources and I’m taking their word for which players have impressed so far.

After hearing the results of Pittsburgh’s training camp practices in 2020 and listening to the names that have consistently stood out, there are a few changes I have made to the final revision of my Steelers 53-man roster.

With just hours to go until Kevin Colbert and his crew must make these career-altering decisions, here are the 53 players I believe will make the roster for the Pittsburgh Steelers to start the 2020 NFL season:
