STEELERS PROSPECT PARADE CONTINUES

The Steelers continue to bring in college players for visits, so here are a few of the latest:

-Oregon DL Ra'Shon Harris will be in town today. He's a shade under 6'4", 297 pounds and projects to be a 3-4 defensive end in the NFL. Harris had 47 tackles and three sacks for the Ducks last year. Rated #18 DT by NFLdraftscout.com.


--6-8, 345-pound Oklahoma OT Phil Loadholt was in town yesterday. He was a left tackle in college but could be moved to the right side in the NFL. Had an arrest last year for suspicion of DUI and transporting an open container, which might be a turn-off. Rated #8 offensive tackle by NFLdraftscout.com.


--5-11, 192-pound Central Florida cornerback/return specialist Joe Burnett also visited yesterday. He was a four-year starter in college and was an All-American returner last year. Rated #23 CB by NFLdraftscout.com.

Brutus Buckeye will be flown in to try out for the vacant Steely McBeam position. Let's hope this mascot doesn't turn out to be an ass.
