    Like Ronnie Harrison more given he is more versatile but Marcus Allen is quite good.

    If they go safety it better be Fitzpatrick.

    Top 5 pick. Not going to happen unless the farm is being sold.

    I picked guys I think the Steelers have a shot at drafting, Fitzpatrick will be a top 10 pick.

    People always fall. While I would be shocked if he did you never know. With that being said I'm generally opposed to trading up for a player. However, I would trade up for Fitzpatrick.

    Dante Pettis WR/PR Washington, the all time leader in CFB in punt return TDs.
    Allen Lazard WR Iowa State a big WR who makes combat catches.

    Jordan Whitehead..... boy can he fly....


    Can see him breaking 4.4s at the combine. If he posts numbers similar or greater than Sean Davis, I would consider him for sure.


    Just hopes he answers for his suspension at Pitt.

    Watched him today on that huge win over Miami. He has a bad tendency to commit early, (turning his hips) when matched up with inside receivers from the little I've seen. Seemed to always open up to the outside, giving the receiver an easy read to the middle of the field. Easily correctable though. That defense played tough today.

    He may overcommit at times but those instincts and range for a player his size is quite difficult to teach for sure.


    While this was an article eariler in the year, here is a good "PvP" read;

    Thoughts on Troy Fumagalli TE Wisconsin, I know he didn't have a great game last night as far as stats go but did anyone watch him? I missed the game but was looking at this guy, he has size is he a good blocker and does he have good hands? He is ranked in the top hundred right now and we all know how that changes but rounds 2-4 I would be interested. Anyone watch this guy this year cause I haven't but TE is a position of need.........

    Isn't Mcdonald signed for 3 years? Granted he can't catch, but I don't see the Steelers

    committing resources to the TE position. Especially now with question at ILB.

    An inside linebacker is now likely top priority.


    Someone like Josh Allen would help. Malik Jefferson even. Jerome Baker.... I am not too sure of him.

    I still go QB in round 1, ILB in round 2 or 3, S in 2 or 3.

    Hopefully and, dare I say it, Josh Allen lasts that long. Drew Lock would be a good looking over as well.

    Still so much to shake out in the QB rankings. Lots of evaluations to do.

    I really hope the seniors attend the Senior Bowl.

    I really think Allen should stay in school, although for our sake, I hope he comes out. He had a really bad year but has alot of tools to work with.

    So far seems like Rosen, Jackson & Darnold will vie for the top 3.

    Mason Rudolph is still my guy.

    Do not sleep on Riley Ferguson from Memphis.

    I think Quin Blanding, FS out of Virginia, is my early leading target for round 2. Passed Jamie Sharper as UVA's all time tackler, was 4th last year in tackling efficiency (not a lot of missed tackles). I like that reliability on the back end, as I have thumped the table for that before with Justin Simmons and Marcus Williams. Blanding returned for his senior year and is looked to as a leader.

    I'll be keeping an eye on how he does at the all star games and combine.
