    Don't get the hate, when PFF grades the Steelers poorly, people complain. When they grade them well, people still complain.

    Maybe take the good with the bad news instead of always killing the messenger.

    As long as Herbig plays inside I think this has the makings of an outstanding draft.

    I think he’ll wind up there eventually.
    for this year he’ll be asked to provide some relief for TJ and ah

    Why? He's insurance for Highsmith for next season in case his price tag is astronomical.

    Not much difference between Highsmith and Herbig especially if he gains about 5 lbs:

    He played at and weighed in at 228 at the combine. SSLaser or someone else posted a great piece about him making the move inside at the next level.

    Who knows if they are right, but the Depot guys said that edges with short arms tend to do poorly in our system.

    And from the way he was talking pre-draft Herbig expected to be moved inside in the NFL

    Just noticed the arm measurement. JP Jr. have a couple inches to spare?

    I waited until after the draft this year to post any comments, letting it all play out. Bottom line, I can't remember a better looking (we'll see what happens when the game starts, as always) Steeler's draft on paper than this one in a long, long time. Can't wait for the season!

    Totally agree with you. Some are scratching their head about Washington but he brings a toughness and help to the run game. As well as some pass catching relief for Muth who was concussed a couple times last year.
    From the 2011-2022 season,(A 12 year period that the majority of Cowher's players & coaches had left) Mike Tomlin has only won 3 playoff games. And two of those wins were against back up Quarterbacks. Currently, Tomlin hasn't won a playoff game in 6 years.
