    Anyone taken in the 6th round who becomes a solid contributor - even if not a starter - is a nice pick.

    Yes, like AB for instance. I think we had two number six picks that year.

    Well its good to know we probably won't have to LB at every other pick in the draft like it seems we do.
    Lets focus on our secondary now.

    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.

    Williams is everything you want in a back up. He comes in and plays hard and can do well on special teams. As long as he stays in the back up role he is a more valuable contributor than he was as a starter.

    Exactly. I'm not happy about a LB position that has him or Spence starting, but a rotation of Timmons and Shazier, with Williams and Spence coming in, sounds very solid to me.

    depending on what happens with Worilds, we'll probably have to draft an OLB or two in next year's draft...

    Williams is the most physical linebacker on this team. But, the guy has little ability in coverage. He is a 2 down back up linebacker at this point. But, I will say this...if the Steelers are getting handled in the trenches I would love to see them insert Williams, Tuitt and Big Mount.
    Trolls are people too.

    I wouldnt mind some looks with Tuitt, Mcclendon, Mccullers, and Heyward with James, VW, and Shazier as the 3 LBs
