our weakest position group

This is a position where you need at least four good starters and strong depth down to fifth or even sixth corner.

We currently have two.

Adam Jones and Dre Kirkpatrick look to be decent starters. Leon Hall has not played well in preseason after struggling last season and tbh looks like a liability. We simply don't know what were have with the currently injured Darqueze Dennard and beyond that we have two rookies in Josh Shaw and Troy Hill - neither of whom have looked comfortable in preseason - and the ever mediocre Chris Lewis-Harris.

I'm terrified of an injury to Adam Jones right now, and you should be, too.  This is the one position I could see us improving prior to week one through trade or picking up someone else's cuts.

Last year it was LB and by play-offs WR / TE......Anybody remember Steelers running the power sweep over and over for big games, all game, as they swept us in 2014, and our LB's just didn't cut the mustard, they got ran off the field. .....and of course everybody remembers Eifert, Jones, AJ out in play-offs, and did we even have Sanu or Gresham ??? The guys we were forced to play tried, but never got open once. Just not good enough 2nd and 3rd string receivers.

So I was hoping for more depth at LB and WR......Regular season will show if we improved. Steelers probably already have plans to power sweep us off the field again, if they can. AJ Hawk is an upgrade. ( how many AJ's can you have on one team. I think we are setting a record for AJ's ).
