He's 25 now, but his first ever exposure to American football was in 2009, so there is not a lot of tread on his tires. Prior to that, he was an elite level shot put/discus/hammer thrower. His rare combination of size, speed, strength, and athleticism should make him a sight to behold at the combine (I wouldn't be surprised if he ended up in the latter half of round one when all is said and done, in spite of his age and relative inexperience).
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.
