    NO: Cody, Spikes, any QB not named Webb or Edwards
    YES: Spoon, Wilson, Gerhart, Moeaki, Joseph, Cooper, Barnes
    It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust & sweat & blood...

    Mays to backup Troy and ultimately be his replacement or
    Thomas to replace Clark or
    Weatherspoon to replace Farrior or
    Williams to be backup snack and get dome reps or
    Odrick to team with Hood to anchor the defensive line for the next 10 years

    I don't want an offensive player until the third round and then a center or tackle. After that it doesn't matter to me, players after the third round are developmental projects for the most part (I realize there are exceptions).

    Thats funny fezz...can i throw in the obligatory Carey Davis as well? How about Stapleton...oh wait, he's already out the door. I guess that means we need a safety, fullback, and guard in this draft...unless Mundy, no one, and Urbik have secretly shown something.

    Trent Williams - not in the 1st; if possible convert him to center.


    Guys I don't want:

    Taylor Mays - no free safety in the 1st round.

    Weatherspoon, McClain - no LBs in the 1st! (Steelers Way: draft LBs in the lower rounds and develop them)

    Bruce Campbell - looks like Tarzan, plays like Jane.

    Dan Williams - see T. Cody
    Why would you be willing to draft a DE when we already have 3 capable ones but not a FS when we don't have a capable one on the roster?

    Don't get me wrong, I'd take Odrick in the first. But, Earl Thomas would be unreal back there with Troy.
    Even if Bill Belichick was getting an atomic wedgie, his face would look exactly the same.

    Players I want: Quality o-linemen and defensive players from all 3 levels of the defense...early and often.

    Players I don't want: Offensive skill position players any earlier than day 3 of the draft (rounds 4-7).
    Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

    Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

    We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

    We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.
