    Well, the Steelers got it right this draft by double dipping at DL.

    Another run stuffing force!!!


    Derrick Harmon, Jack Sawyer and Yahya Black. Three great options designed to do just that; stuff the run.


    Am loving this draft thus far!

    Dude it would be stupid to draft any college players that has play only a few games , in the 1st round. I don't give a f**k who it is. If You don't realize this , I'm sorry, and I don't know what else to say.

    Yahya. He’s not a guy I watched much of at all. Big dude. We are definitely trying to be dominant vs. the run.

    Looks like the trade back was smart.

    Many here have nailed our picks. Impressive since I don’t know college players or evaluation. Well done.

    Man, if Harman and Black turn out to be solid, dependable pros, those linebackers have the potential to maul opposing RB's and QB's

    He is worth a look.


    He toughed it out against Tyler Linderbaum as a Freshman. Naturally, Tyler won out more often than not but Black got better. He has been an ascending player ever since.


    As it currently stands?! Dude is a monster of a NT. He has unconventional height mixed with tremendous length (35 inches). Dude will be a force against the run.

    Yahya Black.... Goodbye Loudermilk

    Nice draft, I got to say Goodbye to Leal and Loudermilk, 2 Huge Mike Tomlin Draft Mistakes.

    The Steelers obviously didn’t want the baggage that comes with Sanders, and believe me there WILL BE baggage.

    Colbert also played a part in that as well. Don't dismiss him either. That said, Colbert is still headed to Canton despite the fact.

    Anyone you take at this point, especially at QB is not a starting threat this year, is he a future starter/back up...maybe. Chill dude, this was not a screw up, we potentially solved an issue that has plagued us for years.

    My first thought was his name reminds me of The Rolling Stones album, "Get Yer Ya Ya's Out."

    I love Andy Weidl. The focus on the LOS is huge. Two years getting a bunch of OL.

    Now the DL is Heyward, Benton, Harmon, Black, Ekuale, Adams, Lowry, Lee. No more Lowdermilk or Leal.

    I agree, its been a weakness for years. Philly showed it, the Giants years before, you need a dominant front line or your secondary will be picked apart if LB's have to constantly be used to put pressure on the QB. Teams then release stud Tight Ends to carve you up, let alone RB's out of the backfield or slot WR's. Its like the 70's again in terms of defensive approach, how many INT's did Jack Lambert have.
