    It's a no-brainer! If Jarvis Jones is there at 17, he will be highest rated on...

    ..the Steelers board. I believe he will be at least the 5th best overall player on their entire board. And to have him there at 17 is an easy pick. He is the best defensive football player in this draft, he is a big time play maker, he fills a major position of need, and as a defensive player in this draft, he is the most NFL ready. A couple months ago I said no way does he make it out of the top 5. Well it sounds as if that is going to happen. In fact if he makes it past New Orleans at 15, he is going to be a Steeler. And this is going to be huge. As a result I have modified my Steeler mock draft. I would not have a problem with them going LB, LB with Jones and Sio Moore 1 and 2 but I think they will go with Jesse Williams instead.

    I wouldn't mind Jones in the first. Not my first pick but I'd like it. I'd also be pretty stoked if Minter fell to us in the second. I don't think he would, but I'd love to see Ovi in meltdown mode

    I would rather have Sio Moore over Kevin Minter and I was the guy pimping Minter back in October. Sio Moore can play all LB positions in a 3-4 He can cover, he strong, he is quick/fast, and he has mean streak. Add his size (height and weight) and her minds me of.........hmmmmm?...Oh yeah, James Harrison.

    I'm with you on Sio Moore. He moves alot like Timmons and covers very well.

    Why do you think I would meltdown? If we pick Jones, the moment he becomes a Steeler I'm his biggest fan. I just think there is a whole bunch of risk associated with him, but sacking the QB is what I think a defense must do first and foremost. If he can do that great.

    From a value standpoint alone, it's hard to argue against Jarvis Jones. What it means for the Steelers OLB's in future years is yet to be decided, however...
    The people that are trying to make the world worse never take a day off, why should I?

    I say the two guards are "cant miss" prospects more than Jones is.
    I know BOTH might be gone but two guards that early is unheard of.
    I would not be shocked if one was there.

    In view of the fact that Mike Tomlin has matched Cowhers record I give him the designation:

    If one of the two top guards (Warmack or Cooper) falls (unlikely) I take them, even though we have invested a lot in oline lately.
    An interior line with Pouncey, DeCastro and one of those rooks would be scary good.

    If they are gone as I expect, I would definately go Jones

    I agree. I think the drop off from the two Gs to Jones is significant. I would just hope somebody else graded in between then would still be there.
