Steelers' 53-man roster projection includes Terrell Watson, Justin Hunter

The Pittsburgh Steelers must cut their roster to 53 players by 4 p.m. ET Saturday. Here's a final 53-man roster projection:

Dobbs was a nice storyline early in the preseason, but Jones -- who has started at least two games in each of the past two seasons -- is entrenched as the primary backup. Dobbs can learn behind the scenes.

Watson's 80 yards on 15 first-half carries in the preseason finale was hard to ignore. He got a chance to earn a roster spot and capitalized in Carolina. The Steelers have several options: Fitz Toussaint, Knile Davis, Watson and Trey Williams have had positive moments in the preseason.
