Pittsburgh Steelers will select 28th overall

Another kick to the groin!

Was hoping to get a little lower, but the record is the record and they're the only 13-3 team to not be playing this next Sunday.

Didn't realize it was record, thought it was "last man standing" ranking.

 

Dang me either
That’s ok
Hopefully we will do our homework
We can get a stud at 28.

 

Might as well pick the best ILB or Free Safety available. BPA of those two positions.

 

Teams in the playoffs get their draft position based on where they finish, example we have a better record than the jags but since they won we pick before them.....

 

Defensive Coordinator?

 

I believe highest comp we might get is fifth unless I misread somewhere.


Either way, oh please God let it be Ronnie Harrison. Justin Reid even. Heck I will take Tremaine Edwards or Malil Jefferson.

 

You didn't get the memo...Ronnie Harrison will be picked at 27

 

True, every round falls back on league standings for the losers.

Next week if the Jags lose they'll get the 29th pick based on their 10-6 record and League standing. They are truly playing with house money.

Interesting note though. Steelers would be getting the 29th pick instead if they would have won and lost to the Patriots next week! The jags would have been 26th.

 

Yeah, they don't release the formula they use and many folks that thought they knew get it wrong every year!

 

I saw a mock draft with Rashaan Evans going to us. I would take that.

 

I’m hoping for Carlton Davis cb from Auburn.

 

We don’t need a CB in the first round. ILB,Safety,OLB are be much bigger needs. We just drafted Sutton in the 3rd last year and he played very well in the time that he was on the field

 

Probably will take a receiver. At this point our best defense is our Offense...

 

Man I really wish those 8-8 seasons were closer to 4-12

 

At 28... there should be some starter-ready Safeties and ILBs. Usually... premium Guards, Centers, TEs, ILBs and Safeties can be had in this area. QBs, OLBs, DEs, OTs and CBs... not so much.

 

I stated a possibility; an actuality I did not.

 

Free Safety first IMO. I have a good feeling about Shazier. Not sure why though.

 

I'm still waiting for Hamptons replacement.

$hit hasn't been the same since.

 

Hampton?!

Hell I'm still waiting on Kirklands replacement! Had it for a bit with Woodley, then he took a nosedive!

 

That’s stinks, but there will be CB’s and Safeties still on the board for pick 28 and the second round.

This draft no taking a WR and RB before taking a CB or Safety. A lot of teams need QB’s, WR’s, and RB’s as their first pick.

If we play our cards right we can hopefully sure up that defense. Although I won’t hold my breath!

 

ILB or FS I saw the mock draft too and I’d be ok with Evans from Alabama.
