    I am hoping the team is quiet on the O-Line front during Free Agency this year before the draft.

    It is time to stop bringing in Offensive lineman that have been released by their former teams and start drafting O-lineman in the 1st and 2nd round that can come in and start from Day 1.

    Actually I'm excited also.
    It's the last game for Me I even care about. SEC, and all that. I don't root for any of the teams , but Arkansas in the season, but when a SEC team makes it....I always root for them.

    The right 1st and 2nd round picks should start from Day 1.

    Any offensive Lineman the Steelers draft in the "1st" round this year (Picks 17 & 32) had better be a day 1 starter!!! Not a project that they are planning on developing or moving positions.

    So O'cyrus in the 1st and Forbes in the 2nd. I can live with that.

    as someone that’s watched Ringo play basically every snap of his collegiate career he would be a pass if I were the gm. He’s got the measurables, but he’s too stiff in the hips. All draft picks are a gamble and cb is one of the hardest to get right. If we want a day one impact cb then A proven commodity via free agency is the safest route

    you don’t seem to grasp the fact that every draft pick is a gamble. GM’s are hoping what they and the scouts have seen will translate to success at the nfl level, but there are no guarantees.

    And the Steelers' scouts have a lot more hits than misses.

    Ok. I've done a few mock draft and one player that's almost always available when I draft is Addison.

    Men, I don't think I can pass on Addison or the TCU kid if they are there. I know WR is NOT a need. But that's like not drafting Jamar Chase to me.

    Amo take Addison if he is there.

    I saw 2 mocks today both of them have us taking corners. PFF has the Steelers taking Cam Smith and CBS has the Steelers taking Witherspoon from Illinois.

    Addison is very much a taller DJ. Frankly drafting Addison makes DJ expendable. The biggest difference would be Addison would be willing to play his natural slot position. The thing is, you can find solid slot WRs in the forth round. I'd draft a special talent like Chase in the first round but definitely not Addison. I like Addison and hope he has a successful career.
