    Going to be tough to pick a favorite from this draft. Think they made some really good picks, Black looks so dominant out there.

    Name like that he has to be good. I think he got his name coming out the birth canal. His mother was screaming YAh YA because of pain and the Doc put it on birth certificate;)

    I can’t help think of the movie Sandlot whenever seeing his name. Yeah-yeah.

    I wonder if the way Yahya Black is playing is the reason why Cam is now worried about his 2026 $13 million roster bonus money. Steelers could end Cam's contract at the end of the year and not owe him a dime!!! :)


    $0.00 in Dead Cap money for 2026 if Cam is released before his Roster Bonus is due in 2026.

    Wanted the team to trade up for him in Round 4 because I thought he would be gone. Happy to know now that didn't have to be the case. Dude is a straight up ass kicker in the running game.


    Gonna need more IDL like him. Hopefully Benton can step it up too.

    My wife ran a birthing center and some of the names people came up with

    Rocephin because the lady heard a nurse use it and thought it sounded good (VD medicine)

    Oh Geez!!!
    Don't even get me started on some of the people I used to hang with names....especially when I found out that was their real name, and not just nicknames.
    Also Rocephin is used for other stuff than Gonorrhea.

    Just imagine if our two rookies get some Heyward Warrior in him. I truly believe Heyward will be a great mentor and technique teacher for these two guys!!

    Both of these guys are going to hold out right after signing a contract?!

    Jokes aside, I do think that if Heyward plays out his current contract at least... he should be a good mentor for the young DL. I'd certainly be happy if either of them turn out to be as good as Cam was.

    I know it's only preseason, but Black has been showing out all of training camp and has flashed in the preseason games too. I love seeing the old school "Cocked Nose T".

    Joe Greene was the first DT I saw line up in the cock eyed position.

    It can't be , we don't know talent, and can't develop talent. So it just can't be.

    I remember telling my friends about Greene lining up like that when I was a kid, I always thought that looked cool.

    Steelers are tone deaf on offense and can't develop QBs. If they could, we'd have 2 more Lombardis with Rudolph at QB after Ben retired. :smiley1:

    Steelers better hope Yahya Black is a diamond in the rough. D line is gonna be a liability without Heyward and Harmon. Black and Benton have to step up.

    Heyward is likely to play it looks like he ended his hold in.

    Another good performance by Black. Think this guy is going to be a stud. Thank God Harmons injury wasn’t season ending. Excited to see this defense perform this year. :yeehaw:
