Ha, same here Bro. I liked your first two picks a lot, both kids would start for the Steelers day one. I took DT Donald, DT Nix, S Boston, QB LThomas and CB CDavis. I traded up this draft, gonna try and stick or trade down the next. I wanted to see what I ended up with trying it both ways

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

Took the Pitt kid huh!? I've seen Donald play in person more than a handful of times. He's got talent written all over him! I debated on taking him but he's not a good fit for a 3-4 defense. He should be a great addition for a 4-3 though. Landing Nix by trading up was a huge move! Hard to argue with that, especially with the 'Boys D-line in flux. Boston was a prospect that I was looking at as well. Solid work!

I'm debating on trading down in this draft to see what I can land, but hard to argue with my last draft. It was solid, but I'm looking forward to having the 3 compensatory picks in the next mock. I'll be able to land some O-lineman hopefully since that was the only are of potential need that I missed.

I love it, talking smack already...

Thanks buddy, I think there are only a handful of teams where Donald fit, but I think a 3T in Dallas would be great for him. Post your draft if you don't mind. I saw your first two picks, I thought getting the best TE in the draft and a kid that could start somewhere in the secondary in the second round were great picks for your team. Any draft that nets two starters should be considered a success. I know we would take it in Dallas

If I'm Minn, I'd have taken Garoppolo over D Carr all day long...

McCullers and Janis were sweet picks IMO

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

A lot of people can argue that I should have taken OT, but the fact is PIT has a lot of young talent in the pool already. The problem is the majority of them lack experience. LT is the only unresolved position on the line, but I still think Mike Adams is going to be the starter (I'm one of the select "few" that feel this way). He just needs the coaching and more experience. His run blocking is good, but his pass blocking was god awful at times.

The real main issue the past few seasons has been an injury plague all along the O-line. But that could be said for any team!

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

McCullers and Janis were sweet picks IMO

McCullers will be a tough sell for the 3-4 though. He has the size, but his height makes him vulnerable for the "anchor" NT position that PIT instills... Ideally a 6-1 330-350lb size is the better fit (Nix, Ellis, Carrethers, etc). Some might think that if McCullers dropped 40lbs that he could be a DE, but that's a stretch IMO. That's what pushed me to take Kerr in the 7th.

Had to go with Janis after his combine... He was an eye opener out there. But with Emmanuel Sanders likely out, we needed depth. PIT drafted Marcus Wheaton last year to fill his position, but we have aging vets that are of question. Plaxico Burress will be gone, and not sure about Cotchery.

I was just practicing!

I was just practicing!

Practicing for the CFL draft maybe...

 

[Ritzarmy]

Do the Bears have GM? If so I have a trade offer for him or her. Already sent the Dolphins GM a trade so who ever accepts the trade first will receive the Redskins 1st pick in the 2014 draft (#34).

 

[Nosferatu]

I like there is already trade talk but please wait until telling me about them, I don't want us to run into a situation where 2 teams make a trade then one of the GM's ends up not being able to take part in our mock.

 

[Johnnydollaz89]

How come i'm not on the list as the Rams GM? I have a co.
