    The problem is he offers virtually nothing to help the Steelers in 2018. He might be a pro bowl tackle in 2020.

    rd 1 - Edmunds...sub package player in 2018

    rd 2 - Washington - will get every chance to play. IMO he replaces ELI for 2018..not Bryant. ....Hunter probably gets the nod to replace Bryant. Thats not to say he will play slot...just his roster spot....I'm guessing JuJu slides into the slot with AB and Washington outside.

    rd 3a - Rudolph....again...nothing in 2018...but maybe a solid pick in 2020

    rd 3b - Okorafor....2020

    I see nothing that will make the 2018 Steelers a better team on opening day.

    Edmunds will be a stud. Not worried about him. Plenty of good tape.

    A Qb and a LT sounds like preparing for a offensive regime change....

    We need OLB, ILB, DT depth, but by all means let's draft 2 project players who won't help in 2018 :facepalm:.

    I thought for sure we'd take the Phillips kid from Stanford there. He just went to the Bills. Great pick for them.

    Why do people keep saying Washington is a slot guy? JuJu is already playing there. Washington is a deep threat.

    Hey, maybe the Steelers realize they can't beat NE or Jax, but maybe by 2020 Brady will have retired and Jacksonville will fall into a huge sink hole? It could happen...

    Ben is a once in a generation player... do everything you can to win NOW. Im sorry, but Rudolph and Dobbs will never be as good as Ben.

    Thought it might have been a little early for him but the way this draft is unfolding, you never know.

    Hope he lasts to our 5th.

    I'm sorry but I'm just not feeling this draft at all. I could usually put a positive spin on some of our picks by now....**** I even had high hopes for Holliman the year we drafted him....to me this draft has a higher possibility of bust then impact...I really hope I'm wrong. The last pick of a OL has me totally lost. So many good players left and we take a project OL....

    Isaac Yiadom is a great pick for the Broncos. I'm a Boston College fan and he is an impactful outside CB

    Yes but you said he replaces Eli not Bryant. Washington stretches the field. Eli never did.

    He definitely replaces Bryant.

    We need a QB to replace BigBen. Quality, consistent starting QBs don't just come along any day. (I'm only defending the Mason Rudolph pick... and Terrell Edmunds :drinks:)

    I feel like Colbert and Coach T sat down together for each pick and said, "What player could we take here that Ender over at TSF would hate the most?"

    Coach T says, "let's take another WR from the big 12, that will drive him nuts"

    Colbert replies, "I've got it! We'll take a major project at offensive tackle...from the MAC! Hahahaha Ender will go through the roof!"
