    Pickens isn't going anywhere until 2026 Free agency. I believe he balls out with AR or MR at QB. This will be his year. Sure he can be a bonehead during the game but he isn't problem off the field. Players come and go it doesn't matter much to me. I was a bartender many years ago in Tuscaloosa and served plenty of Alabama and NFL players. Most are garbage and you wouldn't like any of them. That kind of jaded me on athletes.

    I agree. I love him and Kahn

    The Steelers have 2 potential game changers at WR. That is a fact right now.

    They just need to get the ball into their hands.

    As I am critical of some things of this draft, they did an excellent job overall with talent selection.

    Yes.. unfortunately they are simple, stubborn, unimaginative, and antiquated. The league continues to pass us by while we focus on a reasonably high floor and mediocre ceiling.. most of the teams that are below us are arming and will pass us by until they need to rebuild/retool and temporarily drop back down below us.

    Don't worry, some day (50-150 years from now)80% of the team will get injured, so they'll finally go 4-13 and luck into a Jayden Daniels type, become some level of flawed contender for a while and the front office will strut around like they did something when in reality they simply got lucky(just like Washington who's GM is very flawed). Unfortunately most of us will probably be dead by then.

    You must not be familiar with A Smith's offense.

    And I believe Allen is still under 30. Bills hoping to finally win one.

    Those two Iowa guys we drafted are use to black and gold;) Kaleb looks like a beast and if our o-line somehow got better he'll be good.

    Lot of complaining about our O-line last season. Steelers don't seem concerned.

    I think Broderick Jones will come up to speed this season if he gets to play LT. He has been playing out of position, real young coming out and was lacking college reps. Just like jeh mentioned. OL should improve across the line and be humming along by midseason. Just need to stay healthy.

    Kudos to all who followed draft and posted here. Very entertaining. Great information for those of us who don't really follow college ball.

    Hate wishing months away but after draft I always wish it was August. Sucks when your Hockey team misses Playoffs. Got so use to those 15-16 straight years we made it. Oh wait a minute, I forgot the excitement the Pirates will provide.:facepalm:

    That was a smokescreen. They knew the whole time he was going to go to Cleveland. Don't let them fool you.

    It has always been said, "never meet your heroes". With today's social media platforms we see why every single day.

    This wasn't the year to try and hit a HR at the QB position, Art said before the draft any QB they draft is going to be a developmental guy. Sorry they passed on your guy Shedeur Sanders :rolleyes:, next year is the time to try and hit a HR at QB.

    Sanders and Howard were both my guys. Getting Howard in the 6th is great value. Can’t hit a HR if you don’t swing.

    Almost every team that spends big money on a free agent is going with that guy 1st. People that don't believe this are either forgetting what has been show in the past, on all teams, or they choose to ignore it.

    Nah, I didn’t even want the dude drafted. I’m not your target. Just someone who is a straight shooter calling out lame cultish cheap shots.

    Don't flatter yourself. I didn't read it. I'm sorry if that hurts Your feelings. I did what I said I did....I glanced at it, and seen the keyword scouted....I do notice how You skipped the part that I never once said anything about scouted, and asked You to find when I did. I said the Qbs You have talked about before, and You acted like in 7 years You never talked about other Qbs. LoL. Again I done arguing with you, but if You keep on keeping on, so will I.....so it's totally up to you, or It can stop here.

    You make no sense :lolol:

    This all started because I said remember that when Shedeur is a successful QB. Which triggered you for some reason into trying to mock me about ALL MY PREVIOUS QB’s I have spoken about that I was supposedly wrong about.

    Then when I pointed out the obvious that we only had Picketts draft class before this one to replace Ben you pivoted to all QB’s in general and listed Watsons and Dak. Like what’s the point of even mention them, two established QBs that have been very successful in the league lol. You’re a riot man.

    And yeah, you did read, you read everyone’s reply’s when you say that, its so obvious :lolol:

    Just chill out man, you dont have to make everything personal when someone disagrees with you. You should have been happy I was promoting a non running QB for a change.

    I hope we can pick up some more O Line help in maybe some roster cuts. I'm not convinced o line is there yet. If our injured guys come back and Broderick can make significant leap in performance I would feel better. I would feel much better if we had a new OLine coach to get the best out of our guys. Unless I missed it we have the same coach which if accurate, sucks.

    I don’t hate anyone but I always think of Deion as being a loudmouth baboon

    Right now though it’s looking like he pretty well screwed both of his kids with his stupidity

    I just read his one kid fired him as his agent and got a real one
