I guess, regardless of the fact that a guy is one of the best in the league at his respective positions, we should just go ahead and draft his replacement right away. Like the Pirates do.
Yeah, if the guy is 30, coming off a serious knee injury and his replacement was going to have to be drafted sooner rather than later anyway. I mean half of SteelerNation is upset because we strayed away from the system by waiting too long to draft replacements for the previous "stars" and didn't develop the replacements we drafted soon enough (because we were too busy sticking with the stars for one last run).
Well, put your heart where your mouth is ... Heath is hurt, may never be the same ... don't cry if they draft his replacement and actually develop the kid while Heath is still playing. And I'm not saying Heath is done .. I recognize he isn't fully back from the injury .. "BUT" what if he never does come back fully? We should just give him a pass because he "WAS" one of the best at his position (he's not NOW, and may never be again)?
That lack of a "Go To" WR still pops up during game situations. Even with questions regarding OL & DL, if the Steelers get a shot at a legit #1 WR type, that's the direction Chadman wants to go.
Then a NT.
The people that are trying to make the world worse never take a day off, why should I?
Light up the darkness.
2024 Draft
1. Darius Robinson DT
2. Malachi Corley WR
3. Mike Sainristil CB
3. Beaux Limmer OC
4. Jordan Travis QB
6. Travis Glover OT
7. Josh Proctor S
TE is the least of our worries. JJ was the right pick. I would have been happy with a TE later in the draft, but I would have drafted most of the guys that we did draft. I think we had a solid draft overall. Most people just want something to complain about. I get it.

Agree Chadman. Kept thinking of this while watching C Johnson put on a show for the decade. Hell, I would take someone with half Johnson's talent. The Steelers need AB to develop into that Ward/Welker kind of WR, but a big strong guy for those jump balls would sure help Roethlisberger's game.
Our D is what lost this game. (Suisham helped.)
