    I would take Peters over Gregory. If Peters is there, I'd hope the Steelers would pull the trigger and take him as the BPA, even if Gregory is there.

    Steelers reportedly add three more players to their pre-draft visit list

    It was reported Friday the Pittsburgh Steelers would be hosting Nebraska pass rusher Randy Gregory to one of their pre-draft visits, and NDSU standout linebacker Kyle Emanuel also found himself on the list of pre-draft visits headed to the South Side.

    The NFL allows each franchise to host up to 30 players for these visits. While some could be a simply sit down conversation, others will have the players working out for the team's coaching staff. According to the fine folks here at SB Nation, the Steelers have added three more players to their pre-draft visit list.

    The first is Cameron Clear, tight end from Texas A&M. The Steelers are looking to find Heath Miller's eventual replacement in this year's draft, and it might be in the team's best interest to take a look. Clear is a large human being standing at 6-foot 5-inches and weighing nearly 300 pounds, but Clear is not considered your modern era tight end. Clear has shown flashes of quality run blocking, but wasn't utilized often as a receiving option within the A&M offense. Clear appears to be more in the mold of Matt Spaeth than Miller.

    The second visit for the Steelers will be Louisville wide receiver DeVante Parker. Parker dealt with a foot injury which kept him out nearly his entire first half of his Senior season, but upon his return he was able to reel in over 800 yards receiving. Parker has the size (6-foot 3-inches) the Steelers look to possibly add to their arsenal at the wide receiver position. Parker will be headed to Pittsburgh to meet with the coaching staff and will also be working out for the team at the South Side facility.

    The third visit will be a player Mike Tomlin and Joey Porter visited at his Pro Day at Missouri, and we are speaking of elite DE/OLB pass rusher Shane Ray. The Steelers continue to show massive amount of interest in Ray, although nearly all experts expect him to be off the board before the Steelers select at the No. 22 spot in the upcoming NFL Draft. If the Steelers trade up for Ray, he would be a welcome addition to the team's depth at outside linebacker, but how much would a move like that cost the team? Ray will be visiting to simply meet with the staff, not a workout.

    The Steelers are doing their annual diligence in terms of evaluating talent, bringing in players and putting athletes through workouts all to try and find who might worthy of a selection by the most successful NFL franchise with a record 6 Lombardi trophies.

    You can't work out players during those 30 visits to your facility. You can only work out players on their own turf.
    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.

    If Gregory is there at 22 and we pick him then you know Colbert n Tomlin did their homework so I would be fine with it. Risk reward guy who could be very special.

    this is a wasted visit
    why would you even consider drafting a kid that failed multiple drug tests in college?
    one that 'supposedely' hasn't smoked in the few months leading up to the combine.
    so either he is lying about when was the last time he smoked OR he smoked such umbelieveable amounts while in college that he cant even get it out of his system after months of not smoking.
    bell is facing a suspension to start the season for weed.
    so, the steelers really want to gamble a first round pick on this doper?

    Not to mention, look at how the last one (Adams) has not lived up to his potential.

    Adams not living up to his potential and smoking weed are not related

    Because I can admit hes not very good without blaming him getting high....even though maybe being stoned would be a better excuse for how poorly he plays sometimes.

    Josh gordon wont live up to his potential because he cant stay on the field due to drugs, Adams isnt in any substance abuse program so hes kept himself clean as far as anyone can tell

    Keep on trolling though
