This young man can handle it. In the tradition of great Steeler LBs...I salute the next one...Lamar Woodley!

Woodly is going to make mistakes. I doubt he will live up to the expectations some set for him this season. Going into this 3rd season is when I think it will all come together for him. We will have to wait and see what happens.

I still think he will be thinking instead of reacting to plays. The only way that can be fixed is playing time. I think he will be a good pass rusher. The pass coverage aspect of the position and continued learning of the play book will probably be his biggest obstacles this season. Time will tell if he can add the leadership some of the other current and former Steelers LBs do/did.Originally Posted by asiansteel
At the risk of touting someone from That School Up North, I believe Woodley has the goods to surpass any of Haggans accomplishments over the last three seasons.Originally Posted by steeler_fan_in_t.o.
I saw enough of Woodley as an Ann Arbor Annie to know that he could be hell against the pass. Screw Alan Branch. Woodley was the straw that stirred the drink on the Ann Arbor Annie D in 2006.
Even as a rookie, I loved what he brought to the table in his limited action. Barring injury, Woodley will bring everything Greene ever did with the upside fact that he is only at the start of his career. Greene was a seasoned vet when he joined the Steelers.
Steelers...On The STAIRWAY TO SEVEN!!!

I just hope that with the emergence of Woodley, this will inevitably increase Harrison's sack numbers as well.
I'm going to predict 8 sacks. As a full time player he'll have to do more than just rush the passer.
