    If Ben is going to play the same way he did last year, this poor kid is going to have a very rough year.

    He will not on delayed gun handoff stuff.. I am now sold on a direct snap Offense to allow Mush blocking ..Well we called it if part of him lines up on you then his part gets no part of this hole.. A little old skool we brought to th inside/outside I game.. We made DL to hate lining up in the Gap..Reach Block or Zone block be damned.. Control the damn hole my RB is plowing through..

    Ben ain't going to be around for Najee's career. Last chance for #7 to get on board.

    I am in this camp.

    I like Harris a lot but I think there are other issues.

    Putting the cart before the horse imo

    Everytime I watch Harris film I just dont see this slow "unexplosive" back, maybe I'm watching some other back with solid vision, solid hands, solid decision making, and an NFL level of game speed wear his jersey.

    Looks like we need to address some run blocking issues for him but.. Can that not still be done?

    OH yes i did and to stop the zone scheme and to move Pouncey to guard ..I wanted a Power scheme with Pouncey and DD leading all the pulls and traps and the use of PA from under Center .. Not the Gun delayed crap that we went to..

    I agree just as long as our new RB doesn't have to take a beating in the process.. I like the RB a lot , but as a true fan of the game I can see a great chance we have in this 1 season to ruin a great player ..

    It’s nonsense, just people pissed off at the pick and not sure they have ever watched him run by those comments.

    I'm afraid he's going to get taught a lesson in the NFL sometime in his attempts to go airborne.

    I have my concerns but I do like the player

    I would imagine his "Welcome to the NFL Moment" will come sooner than he realizes. Once that is out of the way, he will be fine.

    People also don’t know that he ran a bunch from shotgun and was successful at it.

    Should have picked OT or Center. Hope Steelers go OLin 2nd and 3rd.

    There's going to be OT and C options in the 2nd. Mayfield and Jenkins dropping to the 2nd pushes current 2nd rounders even further back. A guy like Creed Humphrey is the 66th rated player according some experts. I tend to think either Dickerson, Humphrey or both will be available when the Steelers pick next.

    I was hoping for a different Alabama guy but the Patriots got him.

    Bengals got the LSU tangent going for them.

    I’m pretty sure this is the first time I’ve been simultaneously excited and disappointed about a draft pick. Excited because I think he can be a stud. Disappointed because line was a bigger need IMO. Hopefully the draft will unfold in our favor and we grab a couple plug and play linemen today and tomorrow.
