Official 2019 Draft Talk Thread - NO SPOILERS

Harry?! I thought he could be one of them.


Marquis Brown?! Not a chance! Caught me off guard too!

 

I suppose then Kevin is looking at it from a different perspective. Only thing I can think of is B1G vs. Big XII. Long Jr. might have faced different circumstances than Bush Jr. did.



Keep in mind that the B1G Conference is as tough and gritty as one can find. Big XII is mainly the "BOMBS AWAY" conference. If that is not one of the other "minor reasons", I am not too sure what else.

 

Perspective is correct. Stats never tell the whole story.....guess who that player is?

 

...



This person.... his stats... they are familiar. I cannot put my finger on it.

 

I'll give you a few more minutes in case someone else wants to take a shot

 

BS anderson, hill, Montgomery. It's still football. We saw what mr. Wonderful did against a good team like the buckeyes. The big 10 was pretty average.

 

Oh I never said it was the definitive reason!



I am only assuming what could be the reason for the trade up.

 

Well... I am tapping out. My mind is a bit blurred here. Who?!

 

Enough to give up that much? Production says different.

 

None other than Dirty Red....

 

Hey at least you and NYSteelerfan can finally agree on something

 

Bush could always be a dud, but I'm ecstatic we went after him. He's a great athlete, less raw than we normally take and has high character.

 

How so? 10 sacks or the one turnover? Because he runs fast? The solo tackles and the other numbers should be much better for a guy to be worth a first, second and third. He don't have that kind of pedigree. I will never think he is worth that much.

 

Never say never.....what if he turns out to be the next Potsie?

 

The Steelers were a year late. They should have paid this price last year for one of the linebackers that went in the first round. But now it is what it is and I hope Bush makes the defense better.

 

For what it is worth, as you said big boss, trading up means it has to be a sure fire thing. As you said months ago, Bush might not be a plug and play linebacker day one. There are still some unknowns with him.



That all being said, I do trust Colbert's judgement on this one. The last two players he traded up for helped Pittsburgh acquire #5 and #6 respectively. Here is hoping Devin Bush Jr. can lead us to seven as his indirect predecessors could.

 

Just found out i gota wrk tmrw, after they told me i was off on Sat.. what time does the draft start tmrw.?.. Looks like im gona miss some of the draft, prob the first time in 30+ years

 

Ok while I got you here on the ledge. First I want to welcome you. While we're here discussing whether or not Colbert shoukd be fired if Bush bombs,just like you said in your post 6 weeks ago he may have to be schemed into success. How much of that blame and responsibility should go to the DC who should of been fired already and the HC who seems to be dabbling and influencing the scheme as well? Let's hope we don't have to answer those questions at the end of the season....again.

 

How abt we trade a player to move back into the 2nd round. Trade Dupree for a 2nd and a 5th..???
