    Depends when the QB's start going. Could see Barkley & Nassib go in 2 before Manuel but who knows. Lots of these guys are so close its hard to tell who will go off the board first. Could be a draft of runs where once one WR goes a group of WR go. That sort of thing. CAN'T WAIT TILL TOMORROW!

    Not a fan of TE in Rd#1....I just don't see the value.

    QB in Rd 2 is way too high for a team who has way too many holes to fill....I don't see the point in drafting a QB in Rd 2 who will be backup to Ben for his entire rookie contract.


    I like rest of the pick but i will be disappointed with Rd 1 and Rd 2 picks.
    Steelers Draft 2015
    Rd 1: Devante Parker - WR/ Kevin Johnson - CB
    Rd 2: Danielle Hunter -OLB
    Rd 3: Steven Nelson - CB
    Rd 4: Derron Smith - S
    Rd 5: Henry Anderson - DE
    Rd 6: Wes Saxton - TE
    Rd 7: Deon Simon - DT

    A rebuilding team could get a lot for a Superbowl winning QB that has a year or two left in the tank....having a QB ready to start would enable Ben to be moved.

    Ben's probably got another 7-10 years in him. Most QBs start to peak in their 30s.

    +1

    Why would you trade your franchise QB who has 5-6 good years remaining for draft picks??

    How many 2nd Rd or later QB are franchise QB in NFL???
