    Then 10 mins of talk on how steelers need a QB, then 5 mins of talk on how they should have taken a QB. Of course all that talk off air as they give 10 seconds of commetn on the actual pick lol

    Tomlin’s fault. His win/loss record should be better in line with avoiding draft day commercials. Fire him now!!!!

    He would throw a challenge, but it would just lead to more commercials and he would lose the challenge anyway.

    No way does that happen.

    I like the player... but he is a 2022 starter after Ebron leaves.

    He was not a Bens final ride guy unless you think Ben will play a few more years.

    He will play often... but it's the 1 ball theory....5 guys on the OL Ben..and you will not be taking Harris off the field often.. is 7..... leave 4 guys DJ, JUJU, Claypool, Washingtin, Ebron, PF.....and honestly I was going to see D Watt get some H BACK time.

    Like the player....should pay off huge in the future.... but 2021...well...he is a small cog in a big wheel

    Height: 6-5, Weight: 315

    More patience for the Steelers pays off. This is a starting OT found in Round 4. Very long with effortless power. Good luck bull rushing him. Just needs to get a tick quicker. (Chris Trapasso)
    not sure what this is worth but at least one guy out there loved the pick. I like it as well

    Friermuth will get more snaps than Ebron on running downs.

    Pretty much how I see it. These picks show the future transition away from ben. Problem is Ben is still here. How much do we really expect Ben to change, is he or can he really run Canada's O effectively? Probably not. So we will be stuck with the hybrid. These players will get reps, but the standard will be the standard until Ben leaves.

    According to ESPN, Johnson struggles in coverage but a good tackler. More of a buck lb I guess. Probably come off in the Nickel.

    I hope not... if that's the case just trot out a 3rd OT

    Nothing like telegraphing your intentions when PF steps on the field.

    Honestly do not dislike, just a wait and see I do like (beyond the strength and weakness every site has) the intangibles they see to have. Both played in a tough conference, both played on units that were recognized nationally, and both were integral leaders on those units.

    See, that's what I don't get, they went out of their way to mention on tv that one of his biggest problems is the lack of nastiness/aggression.
