    You don't take him with the 10th pick. Maybe with the 15th pick. You take a game changer with the 10th overall pick. We're winning one of the last two games and picking 15 to 18.

    I'd be pissed if we take T'eo and pass on a game changer that rushes the passer with the 10th overall pick.
    Well then you wouldn't be getting equal value then. The pass rushers that would be there at 10? Barkevious Mingo, Sam Montgomery, etc., are all having down years. Even your boy Dion Jordan has had a lack luster year. Is that what you really want?

    By the way have seen what Luke Kuechly (9th overall pick), has done this year?

    Any ILB who can play down hill, go sideline to sideline, and is above average in pass coverage, is a blue chipper who doesn't come around all that often. And that is what T'eo is.

    I could see that. He is special. He is the type of player you build a defense around.

    I watched Te'o play a couple of times while he was in high school, he was truly a man playing amongst boys.

    I hate ND with all my heart, truely despise them, and would love Te'o in the black and gold.

    Not a ND fan either but I watch them every week out of hate... The kid is good but I don't think he is THAT good. Their front 7 our beast... but I also watched PITT totally destroy them on the ground and Teo was abused by Graham in the open field.

    Don't get me wrong... he could be solid but I don't think he is a game changer at the next level and I would be disappointed if we picked him at 10.

    Stop it. He isn't as good as Kuechly.

    Teo is decent but I think there are a good 3 or 4 LB's in the SEC who are better than Teo... I think he is average in pass coverage and should be available in the middle of the 1st round. I wouldn't have a problem picking him 15th... not 10th though...

    Junior Seau was picked 5th overall once upon a time.
    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.

    I watch lots of SEC games and who are the 3-4 ILBs better than T'eo? I can't fugure who they are based on the games I watched.

    Please, I will take the potential game changer of a Mingo/Jordan over Te'o. You can get a stud ILB in the 2nd easily.

    Ever hear of Bowman or Bobby Wagner. Value in the first for ILB is just not there. We had this same argument over Hightower last year. He was not worth the first round pick. He has been a just decent LB'er for them this year.
