Steelers Release Three Undrafted Rookies

The Steelers released three of their rookie free agents on Thursday. Wide receiver Eric Deslauriers out of Eastern Michigan, fullback Aaron Robbins out of Wyoming, and running back Paul Mosley of Baylor were all sent packing.

Steelers Sign Eleven Undrafted Free Agents

After the draft, the Steelers managed to sign eleven undrafted free agents:

    1. Cody Boyd TE 6-8 264 Washington State
    2. Jason Capizzi OT - 6-9 315, Indiana (Pa.)
    3. Eric Deslauriers WR - 6-4 207, Eastern Michigan
    4. Eric Fowler WR - 6-3 198, Grand Valley State
    5. Chris Jackson WR - 6-2 205, Millsaps
    6. Derrick Jones DL - 6-4 282, Grand Valley State
    7. Paul Mosley RB - 6-3 235, Baylor
    8. Jared Retkofsky LS - 6-5 260, TCU
    9. Gijon Robinson FB - 6-1 261, Missouri Western State
    10. Gary Russell RB - 5-11 215, Minnesota
    11. Darnell Stapleton G/C - 6-3 285, Rutgers

Those are some big boys. Check out the OT, Jason Capizzi- 6-9, 315lbs. RB Paul Mosley may be the team’s answer for a big back, coming in at 6-3, 235lbs. Though, I wish they addressed RB during the actual draft.
