I agree with LeBeau in that this team had a chance to make a championship run this past year. If Ben stays healthy Steeler fans are not so gloom and doom right now.

Tweak a few things on this team and it makes a run this year. Depth is over-rated. 10 picks are not going to make this roster. What this team needs is 3-4 solid to great picks.
A couple of holes? As starters,, yes depending on who we resign and let go. HOWEVER this team is in a dire need of getting younger. We need

1) A REAL backup for Ben
2) A REAL RB
3) Offensive line depth
4) TE depth
5) Another WR
6) DL Depth
7) an ILB & OLB (priority with Harrison going)
At least one young safety
9) CB could be a huge need (depending on Lewis)

A couple of holes? We all know that it takes young players longer to see the field in Pittsburgh. We better get a BUNCH soon.
