I count 9 excluding Toney on their website. Their main receiving corps is fairly young with Antonio Brown, Emmanuel Sanders and Mike Wallace*.Originally Posted by sliderNcider
Why the star by Wallace's name, Jens?
We should have listened to Colorado fans.
Because he´s a RFA, yet has to sign his tender and thinks he should be paid like Larry Fitzgerald.
The Steelers sure like to draft Buff FB players.
But none of those guys have played in the pac 12, big 12 and the big 10. Clemons is definitely some kind of wr sensei by now.
Way to go Tony! Keep your girlfriend away from the rapist.
Pittsburgh does not usually pay players when they start demanding too much. For Toney's sake, it would have been good to learn from Ward. I do think he's landing in a good situation, however. It's a team that has a history of giving young players a chance to prove themselves.
Pittsburgh has always liked bigger WRs who are big enough and tough enough to help in the running game and to be effective when weather makes the field tigher. Tony is big enough and physical enough to fit into this.
Good fit for him.
Probably true. I was going off an article saying they only had 4 WR's. This one says they have 3 returning starters and Jericho Cotchery returning:

Interesting comment on one of the cbssports draft reviews:

Toney had many bad breaks in his career - signing with Michigan and then having them change coaches. Then transferring to CU and experiencing another change in coaches. I think all that was a distraction and slowed his development down. If you remember him and Embree had a meeting after the Hawaii game to "hash things out". Clemons has a huge upside IMO, he was always popular with his team mates and his coaches felt he was a hard worker - I think he was just a little lost as a player. I wonder what his career could of been like if he had solid coaching from the start.
He made some amazing catches this year. I really like the way he will go up for the ball even when covered. I think and hope that he can have a great NFL career.
Cotchery is their 4th WR. Good chance Toney has to make the roster or at least be on the practice squad
Huh? Did you mean "good chance he will make the roster or at least be on the practice squad?"
See RedDirtBuff's link. I think he does much more than just make the roster.
I'll just assume that seventh-round wideout Toney Clemons will eventually become a star like the rest of the late-drafted Steelers wideouts.
Yes. Sorry grammar police
