    What would they do with him? I guess someone will be getting cut if they went that route. Plax and or Cotchery?

    I'm liking Swope. Throw another 4.3 guy in there.

    What are you talking about? The Steelers traded up for Thomas...not a QB...they used their regular 4th for Jones.

    They didn't take Jones with the trade up, they took Shamarko.

    I don't like the Swope pick. Heavy medical red flags.

    I wouldnt mind him...plus he's a bigger guy a 6'1

    Should be interesting as this one can go a number of ways unlike all the previous picks.

    I think the next pick is Mauti, it makes too much sense.

    He's local. The Steelers have shown a ton of interest. They've talked about "character" all draft season. They desparately wanted to re-sign Foote showing they were worried about the position. The fact that we haven't taken an ILB yet, despite that.

    I predict he's the pick.

    They definitely should have their pick of decent players at LB, CB, WR...not sure about guys beyond that...maybe an OL?

    He has a knack for getting open when the QB scrambles too, think that would come in handy???

    @TTF, hadn't heard that, what medical issues?

    If this was the 6th round...I'd have no problem. But hey again if they like and want him that much...they'll do it!

    yes when nassyb went to the giants , i think the plan was nassyb then shamarko with their original pick ,the plan felt down and they went with safety and then they didn't know what to do ..

    Mauti's injury issues may hinder his progress but he works his butt off and was the backbone of the Penn State defense last season. the dude's an animal

    Don't know, just saying if that were my only 2 choices that it would be Swope for them. Plax only has a year left though, let Swope learn the ropes for a year.

    No way Mauti is anything but Special teams....if they wanted to really do something about it they should have taken Khaseem Greene instead of the stupid qb...
