The Steelers wasn't gonna carry 4 QBs, and the Steelers knew they could get something for Dobbs before they either placed him on the practice squad (where he wasn't gonna be protected and the Steelers lose him without any gain) or outright release him (still not getting anything).

Tell you what..... Guess who was inactive Week 1 for the Steelers? It wasn't Roethlisberger. It wasn't Rudolph. It wasn't Devlin, either. It was Dobbs.

Rudolph was the 2nd stringer in preseason. Dobbs and Devlin split 3rd string duties. Dobbs was the odd man out, and was the de facto 4th stringer before his trade.
