    It looks like WR, CB and S are no longer early picks. I am thinking they will go DL, LB or OT at 21.

    If one of the top 3 WRs fell to them at #21 they could still be in play IMO.

    They were until I saw them play. Everyone has misses.
    Hell let's look at many people's favorite HC/GM/Team they think is all awesome the Rams. If the Rams didn't miss so much they wouldn't have to give all their picks away on other teams good draft picks .

    We get to take 3 players with every pick? I like this new rule!

    At this point with the FA additions and trade for Pittman I wouldn't be surprised with them drafting Ty Simpson in the 1st.

    I think that's a bad Idea, and if we do it, I hope I'm very, very,very wrong.

    YEAH at this time I can see every NFL team have a single player for each pick in each round and that's it.
    WOW.

    With FA signings , I am not sure where Steelers will go in this draft
    Weidl has been all over the country looking at talent. I am also not
    that familiar with our new coaching staff and what they like. I am still curious
    what they will do with all the picks. Trading partners will be needed.

    Yes I could see them going that way, but still what do they do with some six picks that will not be used this draft.
    where and how are these picks used?

    I have soured on Lemon. No pun intended. Haha. He has trouble getting off the line and is average after the catch. He also failed his interviews which is red flag due to the history of problems the Steelers have had with WRs. They have a lot of money wrapped up in Metcalf and Pittman already.
