    Oh come on, BS is Derrick Henry and Nick Chubb rolled up into one, with a little Jim Brown thrown in!
    Surely you've been following this thread. You naysayers just need to stop worrying and learn to love the Schnell bomb!

    So you’re satisfied with the Steelers rushing for 1500 yds?!!!

    The Top ten teams rushed for 2000yds or more!!!!
    1500 yds places you at around 26th in the league out of 32!!!

    I showed this to my wife. Her response follows:

    I am fully onboard with this venture. Then someone else can put up with his nonsense while I sit back, watching and eating popcorn. You all have to realize, I live with this. You can block him.

    1500 yd next yr would actually be an improvement over 2019.

    But not to worry, B-B-B-Benny and the Jet Sweep is here to save the day. He's so weird and and so wonderful. He got electric boots and a mohair suit and is combination of Walter Petyon and Earl Campbell. You know I read it on SteelerFans.com thread.

    I must say, based on the little bit of knowledge about her you just shared, you did well in the wife department.

    ok, I like that, but what about drafting a running back? Conner is not a four quarter back, I like Conner but Snell, Whyte, Samuels spelling him makes sense, Do we draft a back in the 2nd or 3rd round?

    With the limited draft picks they have this season, not sure I would and it definitely wouldn't be as early as the 2nd and 3rd.

    They have 5 picks (if they are rewarded a comp) and need help at:
    OL
    DL
    TE
    SS
    and QB has to be in play if it presents itself.

    Snell ran for nearly 4,000 yards in college in the SEC and had 48 TD's. In two games he started this season he ran for 98 yards an 91 yards and 1 TD. Like the RB's before him, I expect a jump from year one to year two.

    We'll have to wait and see what they do in FA that maybe gives them more flexibility in the draft.

    I'm not as optimistic about Snell, but I agree that those positions should take priority over running back. Needing a strong safety is particularly frustrating after they drafted one in the first round just two years ago.

    Steelers fourth round pick that they are due to receive from Miami is actually the Tennessee pick via Miami that they control after the Tannehill trade, so it will be much later in the round than many people expect.

    Dolphins had already traded their own fourth to Houston as part of the Laramy Tunsil trade earlier in the season.

    SIT DOWN SIT DOWN BLAST, we are on the same page here........:thumbs_up:. I want a RB and with the other needs you listed not sure I would pick one in round 2 or 3. However if Taylor or Dobbins is there I may change my mind. Like you said we need OL, DL, TE, S, QB and I am adding OLB. This will change a ton with FA but we just don't now what we do there. Right now my early draft crush is TE Okwuegbunam(don't tell you know who) but if we keep Vance that has to change imo.
