2021 Offseason/Season... Draft, FA & Staff

[Yo Tee]

 

[Bridgeburner]

How do we not pick JOK if he's still at 24?

I DO NOT trust our coaching staff to get the most out of a player like that.

 

[Bridgeburner]

Harris. The worst kept secret in football. They practically made this pick last month. Great prospect. Let’s hope he doesn’t need a line to run behind.

 

[We Are Decent]

Seems that some people are more optimistic than me, god to I hope this kid becomes an All Star.

 

[Superbelt]

Character is off the charts, just like his skill.

The Steelers No. 24 overall draft pick threw a draft party for kids at the homeless shelter where he lived for several years.

I still would have preferred OL or a trade down, but Najee is going to be a star player.

I think it matters if they are able to improve the line tonight. Colbert has said that C is deep this year.

 

[Superbelt]

It may be deep, but I'd prefer to get the best guy possible to play C, and not just a guy who makes the C class deep.

I agree OL is a huge need, but RB was awful and Harris is the best fit for the Steelers. Granted if no one can block in front of him he is SOL but I like the pick because it was a major hole and best available.

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

I am amazed by the amount of OLineman that are still available.

Jenkins & Cosmi in particular. Radunz, Mayfield, Dickerson, Humphrey & Wynn are all on the radar at 55.

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

As I said before the draft, I'd be happy with the pick. Not ecstatic, but happy. He fills a huge need and has an incredibly high ceiling. Obviously hope for the best case scenario here.

But they essentially pinned themselves in a corner with the OL. God forbid they pass on OL at 55 then I may have a heart attack.

 

[Superbelt]

All for broke to get Humphrey, Dickerson or Meinertz.

If two are gone, you have to trade up for the third. It is the biggest hole on the tram. There is not starting NFL talent on the team for Center.

R3 you need a tackle or TE.

Don't forget about Wyatt Davis, OSU. I have him rated higher than Humphrey. The entire staff was at the OSU pro day and Klemm worked out Davis individually. We know how Tomlin loves his Buckeyes.

1. OT Jenkins
2. OT Cosmi


1. Dickerson
2. Meinerz
3. Davis
4. Humphrey

 

[Superbelt]

Wyatt is pure guard though, right?

While I'd love to have a DeCastro replacement like that on the roster, C is just too critical to pass up.

I like the Center (Hainsey) from Notre Dame as a future DeCastro replacement later in the draft.

Hainsey would be a particularly good pairing if they pick Dickerson, as insurance

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

If they go OL as they should at 55, then I'm hoping for OT, LB or CB in the 3rd.

He is, but his inside zone blocking is 2nd to only AVT. I would think he could be coached up to transition to C pretty easily. Much like DIckerson, if it weren't for reoccurring knee issues they should be 1st Rd prospects.

 

[Superbelt]

There goes one, Landon.

So far though, most of the 2nd rounders weren't interesting for the Steelers.

 

[Superbelt]

And Tevan.

 

[Superbelt]

So close. Keep picking non-OL, NFL.

 

[Superbelt]

Guh. I mean we need a TE. But OC is so critical of a need.

They don't have anyone that can do the job. And there are similarly talented TEs that will be available later

Yep. I don't like it. Not with those centers still on the board.

Honestly, Feeearmooth just doesn't look special to me. Looks like a solid TE2.
