Bears Sign LB Thaddeus Gibson To Practice Squad

By Dave Bryan on Wednesday, November 30th, 2011 | 1 Comment

Former Steelers linebacker Thaddeus Gibson was signed to the Chicago Bears practice squad today according to the Bears official website. The Steelers 2010 4th round draft pick has bounced around quite a bit and the Bears make the 5th team that Gibson has spent time with since being drafted. Gibson was released from the Houston Texans practice squad just before Thanksgiving and has had cups of coffee with the 49ers and the Redskins since being released by the Steelers late last October. While much of the fanbase has had hopes that the Steelers would bring back Gibson, ever since they put in a Read more [...]

By Dave Bryan on Wednesday, August 17th, 2011 | 3 Comments

The Steelers waived a former 2008 draft pick today in Limas Sweed and tried to get another former draft pick back in the fold today in the form of linebacker Thaddeus Gibson. Gibson was drafted by the Steelers in the fourth round of the 2010 draft. The Steelers put in a waiver claim for Gibson following his release from the 49ers earlier this week, but he was awarded to the Redskins who also had a waiver claim in on the Ohio State product. The Bears also reportedly put in a claim as well. Gibson made the Steelers roster out of training camp last year, but he was released in late October last Read more [...]

By Dave Bryan on Tuesday, May 31st, 2011 | No Comments

The Sports Illustrated article on the Ohio State debacle is out as of yesterday and Thaddeus Gibson and Doug Worthington, are listed as players who sold memorabilia at the Columbus tattoo shop. Both had been 2010 draft picks of the Steelers and both are with different teams now. The Philadelphia Eagles are expected to go after receiver Plaxico Burress once free agency begins according to Adam Caplan of FOXSports.com.

Steelers 2011 NFL Draft – Day 3 Selection Recap

By Dave Bryan on Saturday, April 30th, 2011 | 1 Comment

The Steelers 2011 NFL Draft is now over and we have 7 new Steeler players to welcome to the fold and it consists of 7 seniors this time around. 5 of these 7 players made pre draft visits to Pittsburgh. Day 3 of the draft was as exciting as the first 2 days in my opinion and the draft seemed to move at a good speed. Steelers Director of Football Operations Kevin Colbert clearly did not reach per his usual style at let the draft come to him as expected. Rounds 1 through 3 draft picks, Cameron Heyward, Marcus Gilbert and Curtis Brown were all quality need fills and the players drafted in rounds 4-7 Read more [...]

2011 Steelers Mock Draft 3.0

By Dave Bryan on Monday, April 11th, 2011 | 15 Comments

It has been 2 weeks since I put out my 2.0 version of the Steelers 2011 Mock Draft and since then the Steelers have had quite a few pre draft visitors to look over and the Pro Days have also wound down. With the draft just 2 and a half weeks away, now is a great time to put out version 3.0. As you will see, I have made quite a few changes. As much as I like what Derek Sherrod brings to the table, I do not think the Steelers view the tackle position as much as a need to just settle for the 4th or 5th best tackle in the draft now. I also see some scenarios where Sherrod could fall out of the first Read more [...]

Could The Steelers Really Draft Two Linebackers Again In 2011?

By Dave Bryan on Wednesday, March 30th, 2011 | 14 Comments

We are just a few days away from April and a few days closer to the Steelers perhaps drafting another linebacker in the 2011 NFL draft and maybe even two. Now of course there is no guarantee that they draft one, but since Kevin Colbert became the Director of Football Operations with the Steelers in 2000, the Steelers have drafted at least one linebacker in all but two of the Steelers drafts he has overseen and four times in that span, the Steelers have drafted more than one linebacker. A quick rewind back to last April and you will remember the Steelers actually drafted three linebackers in Read more [...]

49ers Claim LB Thaddeus Gibson Off Waivers

By Dave Bryan on Monday, November 1st, 2010 | No Comments

The San Francisco 49ers have claimed rookie outside linebacker Thaddeus Gibson off waivers from the Steelers on Monday. Gibson, a fourth-round pick out of Ohio State, was placed on waivers Saturday when the team signed defensive lineman Steve McLendon to the active roster from the practice squad. Gibson had been inactive for the Steelers first 6 games of the season and was deemed the low man on the totem pole of a deep linebacking unit by head coach Mike Tomlin. The move was needed to add defensive line depth with both Steelers defensive ends Aaron Smith and Brett Keisel sidelined with injuries. Read more [...]

Below are the eight players we expect to see on the Steelers inactive list released 90 minutes before kickoff on Sunday night against the New Orleans Saints.
