I seriously was chewing off my arm for him. I wanted a new NT in last year's draft.
Yes, STer
I'm an Aggie. Frederick has pluses and minuses. I might have preferred Judie from A&M more as a CB.
But Frederick may be more valuable as ST, nickel or dime, etc.
I'm just happy we...
Even Colbert couldn't predict 4 before the draft!
Fire Colbert!
I don't always agree with DeeDub, but I do here.
I admit to wanting to move up in the second for him.
And was angry in the 3rd we didn't get him. And I don't apologize for this.
Furious...
Cyrus Gray would have been better.
Same size speed, etc.
But a beast player, great leader, 110% guy.
Went soon after Rainey
When they say couldn't find a partner, they mean at their price.
Teams were dumping alot of picks to move up. The Steelers won't do that.
This is the future:
Adams - DeCastro - Pouncey - Colon - Gilbert
How quickly we get there remains to be seen.
I imagine preseason will force Adams to play ALOT. He'll be on the field til...
We need a DT in the worst way.
More than a T in my opinion.
Not sure if they just rate poorly for the Steelers or not.
Seems we left a few on the board.
Hopefully we grab one now.
I doubt RB. Unlikely another TOP pick at OL. We go D middle or CB.
Upshaw -OLB
Glenn - T/G
Silatolu - G
ZBrown - OLB
Konz - C
Adams - T
Branch - DE
Cousins - QB
Curry - ILB
Allen - T
interesting
Yea, I think this pick 'could' spell the end for Essex, though he does have flexibility. He sucks equally well at G and T.
I think Tomlin will keep it wide open in camp. Do we still have...
Wallace is going nowhere. You let ONE guy dictate who the boss is, they will all try it. They will play hard ball with him. If he gets his mind right, he'll get a VERY nice contract. If he fecks...
If they really like a DT still on the board, I hope they will go get him. If not sit and wait. But trade a couple late round picks to get a 4th or 5th next year.
Aggiebones is drunk and pleased.
Now trade up in rd2 a.d get NT.
Could lightning strike twice?
Could we try to snag a Rams RB to change our fortunes again?
Get Jackson and let Mendy walk.
He's not as cheap as when we acquired Bettis, but he is a HORSE. And...
When you pick at the bottom of the 1st every year, its always buyer beware. Never compare the Steelers list of first rounders against most other teams because we rarely get to pick top 10. Those...
He has alot better of a chance of getting good money, if he signs his tender and begins negotiating.
If he jerks them around and has a good season, they'll franchise him.
If he has a bad season,...
And somehow Crash finds a way to take a very lame attempt at a shot on Hines.
...in a Dixon thread.
Seriously, noone really cares that you have some vendetta against Hines. Its getting old. ...
So a guy wants to be paid over 100M to play football? I'm surprised.
We'll find a middle road or he'll be gone. Not that hard. We have all the leverage...except he doesn't 'have' to play. Or...
Or this year's Pierre Paul?
I think more and more that we'll end up with a DT that falls to us. I doubt its Poe, but I have a sneaky feeling there's a run stuffer that we love and will take.
...
BPA at probably CB, S, OL, DT. Possibly ILB, maybe even RB or TE, but likely not. Draft Day is crazy. Things to hope for. Someone takes Weeden ahead of us. A couple RBs go off the board as well...
Dude was never what people thought he was.
With VY running all over the place, Sweed looked like he could play, but he had alot of freedom to run routes with noone really worried about him. He's...
NOONE is going to pay what he is asking. Its all staging for a solid offer from the Steelers. He knows they have him by the balls. He won't get his top dollar this year. He can sign a good...
