Official Draft Day Discussion Thread

What a joke, 5'8 170?.D+ pick

I like the pick.. We need a hawk back there.

Who is he going to be able to tackle being that small? So much for physical corner play.

What would happen if Golson were to tackle Archer? Anything?

I honestly don't know anything about this guy. He could be a good player, but damn is he small.

We got a CB!


Gruden, Kiper, and the gang are talking this guy up pretty high. I hope we found our man. I still wouldn't mind double dipping at CB just to be sure.

Well most of you finally got your CB like you have been wanting. I don't want to hear anymore whining now...

I wanna say good pick but I'm skeptical too.
Hope he proves everybody wrong.

I would expect another corner before the draft is over.

I hope so. We really need help in the secondary. I'd go back-to-back if there's somebody they like in round 3.

I would like to see them grab Ekpre-Olomu in the 3rd still. I don't think he will last to the 4th.

Well, one thing is for certain ... no one can accuse the Steelers of not addressing their needs this year.

How do you NOT trade up and get Rowe?

5'8?!?! SMH

The Steelers were so caught up in getting Maxx that they just lost sight of what they really needed ,a CB and after he was picked by the Ratbirds they just picked somebody.

If we can get Clive Walford, Alex Carter, or even Jaelen Strong (still think he is a R1 talent) in Round 3 I will be very, very happy.

Also would love Kurtis Drummond out of MSU in the 4th or 5th. Wouldn't even be upset with him in the 3rd though most experts would consider it a reach. I think he'll be a steal and would be a perfect compliment at FS to Mitchell/Shamarko.

That would be the second player we took from my high school. The first being Anthony Smith.

Of course Walford and Strong fly off the board seconds later...

If nothing else it will be more guaranteed wins for us, right?

I wonder if Maxx was ever really the target. This was a weak year for TE, I mean the top prospect didn't even go until late in the 2nd. Heath has one or two years left and they can get a TE later this draft or wait until next year.

We've got way too many busts on the team to be making guarantees.

Don't fret, Wally. The armchair GMs will clean house by week 3 this season and we can start from fantasy-scratch.

I like Drummond too. I think he'd be a good pick. I don't think he makes it to the 5th round. He may not make it to the 4th.

Another pick, another sure bust for the Steelers...

So another CB or OT or S?

When William Gay and Will Allen are your studs in the secondary, you can't load up enough. My pick would be BPA at CB or S.
