    New running back for Steelers

    Kevin Barlow signed a one year deal with the Steelers. This looks to be an interesting signing. He has been a good back with San Fran but didnt get much use with the Jets.

    He's a local guy. I went to school with his uncles, they all played football but not for the pros.

    I dont know why they dont give Davenport more of a chance.. I really liked what I saw of him especially when I was at the games live where you could really watch him.. He covers the ball like JB did and runds like a rookie stud I think... Get him some more time in the real action and I think he might be a really good compliment to FWP

    Free-agent running back Kevan Barlow will have a second visit today with the Steelers, who hope to sign him to a contract. If Barlow accepts their offer, he'll attend minicamp, which starts tomorrow at the Steelers' South Side complex.

    Barlow, who played for Peabody High School and Pitt, has played with the San Francisco 49ers and New York Jets in six NFL seasons.

    now official - good deal for us

    Thursday, May 10, 2007

    By Ed Bouchette, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

    The Steelers this afternoon signed veteran running back Kevan Barlow to a one-year contract that will pay him $595,000 plus a $40,000 roster bonus.


    Barlow, who played for Pitt and Peabody High School, was released this year for salary cap reasons by the New York Jets, who acquired him last August from San Francisco for a fourth-round draft choice. Barlow played his first five seasons with the 49ers, who drafted him in the third round in 2001.


    Barlow is Pitt's seventh-leading career rusher with 2,438 yards.
