Burfict

If he is there in the 7th which he should be since he didnt even meet with an nfl team i think the steelers should roll the dice on him. Think about he is a seventh round pick if he doesn't work i well no big lose but if he shows what he did in college it would be one of the biggest steals in draft history. If we take hightower and him we will have got two good lbers for a very long time. I woulfnt even be against using a sixth rounder on him. I know dude can be a head case but who knows maybe tomlin could get through to him.

 

My betting is that if we want Burflict, then we'll have to go fifth round at the latest. Someone is going to take a flyer on him, and I doubt very much that hemakes it to our 6th round pick.
And I agree, if he's there in the 7th we should take him, even if we take Hightower in 1. The more the merrier, and if he does pan out than we'll have an ILB as trade bait in a couple of years.

 

Agreed. I think if he's there in the 6th we take a shot on him. I think if nothing else he'd could be a great special teamer.

 

I think he will be there i mean not even called by a team wow this dude was supposed to be a top ten pick

 

Definitely worth a late round flyer if for nothing else than the proverbial chip on his shoulder at being passed over

Hack

 

Just read he may have failed drug test at combine.....only reason to take him in 7 is to keep from having to bid for him as an udfa

Hack

 

Jesus, nevermind... He failed the combine drug test.

What an idiot

 

I guess you're right especially since we have so many 7th rounders... but my god.

I read an article about him in ESPN magazine that made him out to not be as bad as some have said. They talked about how he improved at his pro day and was starting to get it together... Who knows. Maybe Harrison and Woodley could straighten him out.
