    Trying to match up players I like, with players and positions the Steelers appear to be targeting.... Here's what I have

    We are definitely focused on DB in the first... William JacksonIII or Karl Joseph would be perfect picks. But if a multi dimensional DL were available (Billings please) we could go in that direction too. I've been focusing on S, CB, DL, Edge. Here's my breakdown of one player by position for each round. We don't have a 5th rounder.

    I would be thrilled if we somehow came away with 4 of these players:

    S: Karl Joseph (1st), Keanu Neal/Darian Thompson (2nd), Sean Davis (3rd), TJ Green (4th), Justin Simmons (6th) Demontrae Elston (7th)
    CB: William Jackson III (1st), Artie Burns (2nd), Cyrus Jones (3rd), DJ White (4th), Deandre Elliot (6th), Tavon Young (7th)
    DT/5T: Andrew Billings DT (1st), Bronson Kaufusi 5T (2nd), Karl Nassib 5T (3rd) Javon Hargrave DT (4th), Chris Jones 5T (6th), Dean Lowry 5T (7th)
    EDGE: Emmanuel Ogbah (1st), Kamalei Correa (2nd), Kyler Fackrell (3rd), Matt Judon (4th), Dadi Nicolas (6th), Stephen Weatherly (7th)
    OTHER: N/A (1st), Tajae Sharpe WR (2nd), Pharoah Cooper WR (3rd), Jatavis Brown LB (4th), Rees Odhiambo OG (6th), Corey James LB (7th)

    This list also assumes that universally ranked top 15 ish players like Vernon Hargreaves or Shaq Lawson don't slide all the way to our lap.

    Given the above.... here are my 3 favorite possible outcomes:

    1 Billings DT
    2 Neal/Thompson S
    3 Nassib 5T
    4 White CB
    6 Elliot CB
    7 Weatherly Edge

    1 Jackson III CB
    2 Neal/Thompson S
    3 Nassib 5T
    4 Hargrave DT
    6 Elliot CB
    7 Weatherly Edge

    1 Joseph S
    2 Burns CB
    3 Nassib 5T
    4 Hargrave DT
    6 Elliot CB
    7 Weatherly Edge

    I wish someone's name was Weatherly Edge.

    Also I wonder if A'shawn Robinson is a possibility at our spot in the 2nd

    I'd be very happy with Scenario 2 or 3. Curious about 1 thing: When you list Nassib as a 5T, are you just labeling his spot in the base defense, or are you thinking he's limited to that kind of role? I will admit that I only had time to watch a couple of his games several weeks back, but my impression was that he has the versatility to also play outside the tackle in an even front and be a factor.

    All defense. I would think they'd throw an offensive guy in there just for grins. Seriously though, I would like option 2 or 3 with Thompson in option 2.

    :lolol: I didn't notice that, funny because I pointed out in our mock that they won't go all defense.

    My number 1 want (not in round 1) is a returner, really don't want Wheaton returning again ever or see AB get murdered by a ST guy wanting to put a hit on our best player. Pharoah Cooper, Cyrus Jones or Drake from Bama would be be awesome
