Pittsburgh Steelers final 53-man roster prediction entering 2020 season
By Tommy Jaggi
Tight end: 3
Eric Ebron, Vance McDonald, Zach Gentry
At one point, perhaps there was a glimmer of a chance that a guy like Kevin Rader or Dax Raymond could sneak into the top three, but this tight end group is practically set in stone now. Eric Ebron and Vance McDonald will split a built of the workload, while second-year player, Zach Gentry, will retain his spot as the team’s third tight end this year.
Offensive line: 8
David DeCastro, Maurkice Pouncey, Alejandro Villanueva, Matt Feiler, Zach Banner, Chukwuma Okorafor, Stefen Wisniewski, Kevin Dotson
The Steelers typically go with eight offensive linemen on the roster, and it’s not terribly hard to pick which ones they will choose this year. Obviously their top four are set with David DeCastro, Maurkice Pouncey, Alejandro Villanueva, and Matt Feiler.
Outside of them, Zach Banner and Chukwuma Okorafor will both make the team as one will be declared the starting right tackle before next week. Free-agent signing, Stefen Wisniewski, will begin the year as the interior swing offensive lineman, while rookie fourth-rounder Kevin Dotson will complete the group. I have Derwin Gray just missing the cut again this year.
