Which Undrafted Fa will have a legit Shot.

As far as I can see. That is about the sorriest group of pretenders that I can recall the team bringing in as camp fodder.

…they have a QB from the U of California in Pittsburgh, to go with an OT who was born in Pittsburg, California. That will likely go down as the most memorable aspect of Kevin McCabe and Ra’Shon Harris’s career as Steelers.

QB Reilly, ILBs Korte and Schantz, LS Estermayer , OT Foster, DT McLendon and RB Redman all have a chance to make the practice roster this year and based on Steeler history at least one of them will make the 53-man roster. Estermayer was invited to the Senior Bowl and was considered one of the top 3 long-snappers in college. Reilly is an accurate and fairly strong passer with some elusiveness in the pocket and excellent fundamentals. He broke most if not all of Jon Kitna’s school records. He could be kept around as the prospective No. 3 QB in 2010. Korte and Schantz are the top new prospects at a position that just lost a starter in Foote and will get a long look for special teams, which is how undrafted Donovan Woods and Patrick Bailey made the team last year. Korte is a tough, smart and reasonably athletic kid who will impress the coaches by doing everything asked of him fairly well. Schantz was coached by Jerry Glanville in a 3-4 defense at Portland State and had other teams interested in signing him. Foster was invited to the Senior Bowl, where he did not impress very many people, but he is huge and the only OT the Steelers signed from this draft year, so he will get a good look to see if he might develop at OT or guard. Redman was an excellent small-school back with shiftiness, balance and strength at 228 pounds. McClendon comes from an excellent program at Troy, started just his senior year after suffering injuries but is athletic at nearly 6-2 and 305 pounds and might have a chance to put on weight and learn NT. He originally agreed to an offer from the Eagles but the Steelers were interested enough to give him a better offer. Demiko (doesn’t go by Cedric) Goodman will get everyone’s attention at camp as a former 400-meter track star with great downfield speed but he never really developed at Georgia after being a highly-touted recruit. The Steelers are probably a detour on his way to the CFL but he is going to blow by some people at camp. Grisham is a tough and smart little receiver who probably just isn’t quick enough but he will catch almost everything thrown to him. None of the Steelers’ current backups are that kind of good underneath receiver and Grisham has a bit of Wes Welker in him, although not quite as sturdy. He has about the same measurables as Welker did coming out of college, and had 60 receptions as a Junior. Almost all of these guys will get cut as part of the process but it doesn’t end there. Four or five will be added to the practice roster and Estermayer in particular has a chance to make the team. Korte could be a real surprise.

Cyrus Mulitalo`was an exceptional inside linebacker for small school Sacramento State.

QB Mike Reilly (earns practice squad, would make 53 man roster except for Dixon and Batch

OT Ramon Foster: a big body for the practice squad

Plus at least one new linebacker. Depending on what the staff sees in these guys, they might want to watch them develop for a year (on the practice squad) before cutting them for good. I think there’s a NFL limit to the number of years a player can be kept on the practice squad. If so, there might be some turnover out of necessity.

I think Isaac Redman could be really talented. But it’s hard to judge him based on his competition. Plus he doesn’t appear to have RB speed for the NFL. Likewise, Mulitalo, Korte, and Schwartz could be monsters in football pads, or they might look like they stepped in front of a semi under NFL ‘full live contact’ conditions.

could be a great sleeper…can make the throws, has mobility, is competitive, and is considered a leader…we’ll see….

Personally UDFAs never totally stand out.

But anybody at WR has a shot to get in at #5.

Kid has potential at T and he’s a big body … with just Essex and Hills between him and roster spot.

Estermeyer and Schantz

If they carry extra OL guys Foster has a very good shot at making it. Estermyer obviously a LS always has a shot. For me it’s the ILBs that have the best shot. When Foote is gone our depth at ILB is non existent, all our other guys are really Special teamers (Fox and Bailey should make the team just as ST guys though) so yeah I think we’ve picked up a couple of guys in Schantz and Korte if they play well there is a shot for one of them to make the team and be the primary backup at ILB too.

I was very impreesed with Redman Video but ok course it was against a lower class of Competition but hey you never Know.
