    I just hope if they draft a corner in the 1st he can protect Pickett's blind side...

    Porter didn't have the interceptions in college, but he also didn't allow a TD in coverage in 2022.

    He's projected to go mid first round, if they took him at #17 I would be okay with it, he's a big CB that can cover #1 receivers.

    Does that bother You....that if You look back on the stuff that is here in black, and white....that I've been right more than Your so call loves/experts???
    You know what??? I'm not the only one on this board that has been right a lot of times. Some of us played sports along time....We know what We are looking at, and don't have to have people on TV tell us.
    Also some of us after sports had to get a real job for reasons unknown to You....So we couldn't go around hoping someone would finally give us a job doing that type of stuff.
    Also some of us had Dreams beyond sports....doesn't mean We don't know what We are talking about. Also Some of Us are good at other things than just sport...doesn't mean We don't know sports.

    How so? Was there some other safety they could have taken in that spot? Really, the better options were at linebacker or running back.

    You will get positive responses for this. He will get none for his post. That should tell him something. But it won’t. Trolls

    I didn't say play. I also didnt say just people on tv. You time and time again touted what you said about baker compared to what the browns and a large number of nfl people thought about baker as if your some football mastermind above the rest of the nfl world cause of a prediction lol. I said why aren't you working for a team. Two different things. Their jobs is no less real them yours. So you're so "great" at evaluating talent and predicting sports, you'd rather make less money doing whayever you currently do in a likely tougher field then getting paid millions by a team to be a scout or front office executive?

    And lol you making a few predictions on here doesn't equate to you knowing more then nfl teams.

    Your concept of what NFL scouts get paid and the amount of work required for those jobs is interesting. It's not accurate, but it is interesting.

    I’d rather have a shut down corner. I don’t know if that will be Joey in the pros but he was in college and teams avoided throwing his way because of it so naturally he isn’t going to have a whole lot of opportunities to pick passes off.

    It’s the same reason Revis didn’t have interceptions in the pros, teams didn’t bother throwing his way.

    I think he is but he needs to be less handsy, they need to coach that out of him. He’ll be a flag machine.

    No just the same circle of D Bags who slobber over MT and his 3 in 12. Start queuing up your excuses for him next year I can guarantee you will need them.

    When the nursing home allows him internet time he runs on and defends his handful of message board buddies and MT. Poor guy.

    Is Porter Jr handsy because he is not quick enough or athletic enough to keep up with receiver? I know he is big and sometimes these smaller receivers can be quick and shifty.

    He’s raw but CB is a position we desperately need help with. I’m not a fan of drafting players because of family ties but maybe he can turn into a solid CB for us. Our track record with CBS scares me though this staff is too dumb to develop them it appears

    Yes to the nursing home internet and if you think I’m slow just try old people home internet

    No to defending MT I was tired of him before the Jax game so don’t post :bscow:

    I just enjoy whacking trolls

    If another team drafts Porter Jr in the first round it's okay, but if the Steelers draft him in the first round it's because of family ties :facepalm:, he's a top 5 CB in this draft.

    He's quick enough he runs a 4.46 forty, but you probably don't want him covering those small shifty receivers.

    We all don't count because we aren't players, former players, coaches, or former coaches. Hell, he thinks he knows more about football than anybody here just because he claims to play college football.

    Lamar jackson you aren't right about so idk why you mentioned him. And again so if you claim to know so much more then they do why aren't you getting paid to do this? Also it's more then just being right or wrong about a few players lol. That doesn't dictate your knowledge on football compared to an organization.
