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.
Watching more highlights of Burns and his interview...I'm starting to warm up to the pick, actually. I think I was more upset because the Bengals took WJIII right before the Steelers...which I still think that's they're reason for drafting him. Ohh well, we have Burns now and I'm starting to like the guy already!

2. Daniel Faalele, OT; Minnesota
3. Dante Stills, DT; West Virginia
7. Riley Moss, CB; Iowa
Burns and Jackson are very comparable, at least in their combine numbers:
40 time: WJ III 4.37; Burns 4.41
Reps of 225: WJ III 10, Burns 7
Broad Jump: WJ III 9', 8", Burns 10' 4"
Short Shuttle: WJ III 4.32, Burns 4.30
3 Cone: WJ III 6.86, Burns 6.96
Height: WJ III 6' 0", Burns 6' 0"
Weight: WJ III 189, Burns 193
Arm Length: WJ III 31 3/4", Burns 33 1/4"
Hands: WJ III 9 1/4", Burns 9 3/4"
If you needed a CB and had them graded similarly, I can see why you might go ahead and pick him...
Actually, my post was NOT about you...but, if the shoe fits, feel free to lace that &!+€# up and wear it.
