    Brings up some interesting talking points on who we pick, especially in round one. To me, it seems like Hightower is even more likely because you can grab a guard later on.

    I expect us to grab a guard and quarterback in this draft, and maybe a running back. Glad to see we can get them later.

    Whoever we draft this year,I just hope it's a solid draft for us? I would love the Steelers to address: OG,ILB,CB,NT,and Kicker.

    According to our GM two of the deepest positions in the draft are WR & CB due to all the spread offenses in college.
    Two of the least available positions are FB and TE due to their lack of college use. This means if you want or need one of these two you'll most likely have to reach and draft them earlier than you want.

    Hope that list is accurate. I would love another CB but figure we won't go for one until the middle or late rounds. I probably want more than one guard.

    need NT at well.

    I would take Poe if he is there in the first. If not, i would take Adams or Glenn. Second round i would take a guard/tackle player. Then in the 3rd I would take an inside linebacker.

    This is a very weak draft at ILB. That's why I think we pull the trigger on Hightower or Kuechley if they're there at 24.

    i think it would make sense to take glenn if he's there. he has that ability to play LT if need be, but also 3 other spots. they like that flexability. he could eliminate several other backups, like scott. he could make max an after thought also , even if he does heal up. i still think we will need another o-lineman later too. maybe a guy like nix. glenn is a little bigger than gilbert but a little quicker. if he's there is the big if. i know alot of sites are saying he will be there for us, but i'm not so sure. that ability to step out to the LT spot is big though, even if he's going to play guard first here. :cool:
