And With the 17th Overall Pick, the Steelers Choose....

[Sugar]

Eifert from Notre Dame is better but I would be happy with both picks. Today's NFL is about having more weapons on offense than the opponents can match up against

My thinking was just that DD knows him. Aside from that, a TE can be effective in both the run and pass game. Besides, who knows what Heath will be like that coming off his injury?

I dont know that I agree with this. Ertz is very unique in that he has the speed to actually stretch a defense. He runs past safeties.

I think we are now finding out there there was some pretty serious things on Manti Te'o's mind 3 days prior to this game.

He knew well before 3 days before the game. He knew going back to Dec 6th. Had a month to deal with it mentally before playing. I don't think it was as much this as it was his limitations being exploited by Alabama.

Zach Ertz, TE, Stanford

If we were to draft an offensive weapon in the first round, I'd choose the WR from Clemson.... Hopkins

[supersteeler]

Just out of curiosity if the following players were available when we pick @ 17 which one would you choose?


1. JESSE WILLIAMS NT



2. KEENAN ALLEN WR



3. KENNY VACARRO FS



4. CHANCE WARMACK G

Warmack then Williams.

I was thinking that the TE would not only be a weapon, but would actually help in the run game and pass protection as well.

[Chadman]

Of those 4- Jesse Williams.

Although not a 1st round guy (according to draft sites, anyway... after the Seahawks picked Bruce Irvin in the 1st last year- who isn't a potential 1st round guy?) Chadman reckons the 'best' overall WR in this draft class is DaRick Rogers- so long as he interviews well.
