    I’m hoping so.
    When do you think we will hear their intentions?
    How is it possible to have the best owner, best front office, best gm, best HC, good/great drafts every year and good FA acquisitions every year, but only have 3 playoff wins in 14 years?

    Or a guard.
    James Daniel's contract is up next year IIRC.

    Maybe, but I think he’s going to the middle. I heard some others thought he could play C too.

    Nick Saban seems to be coming across authentic in his evaluations. I noticed earlier he seemed a little miffed when the Bengals took Mims and not to thrilled with him as a player based on some comments.

    I actually think he'll be our starting RT, but we'll see what they say shortly...

    I say the Steelers are looking at him primarily at RT but value his versatility to play anywhere along the line. Tomorrow will tell us for sure, regardless of what the team says about it tonight. I'm still hoping for a center in the second round.

    On NFL Network, they quoted him as saying he is a tackle.Period.
    That projecting moving him inside is lazy scouting.

    He'll be a RT, no question.
